    Okay, so deleting most of the DC Cache file was a bad idea. I just spent the last 2 hours reinstalling most of it. :x No time to play, and apart from installing my store worlds twice by accident (they weren't showing up in the launcher) I think we're cooking with gas, although I don't know if I'll have time to play tomorrow. The store content was all there, but it all needed to be reinstalled. Piece by piece, by piece... :shock:

    And time for bed, as I have kept the furball waiting long enough. If I spend too much time on the computer, he deliberately starts attacking the blinds, clawing the furniture, knocking things on the floor...then looking over at me as if to say "Are you paying attention to me yet?"

    Night, all! Hope your games are going more smoothly.

    @krimsonnox, Thanks for the welcome back as I'm not sure how often I would do a regular posting though! I wasn't here to notice how much the regular simmers who post in this thread not been around. That's fine if you needed to get an okay from BD5141 & I didn't notice about her father passed away. I do want to send my condolence to her family.

    ::brushes the dust off::

    wow we need to clean in here.

    Hi ya'll (listens to the echo)

    Well I went silent for awhile cuz i didn't think i had much to say , or i was in a funk or something. lol

    I went ahead and bought RH's and the boardwalk and also got the russia set for my birthday, so i have been setting up RH some with new venues or just editing the pre existing ones. They did a great job with the venues along the little strip of beach. It was very easy to add in the bistro stuff to the bars and that one restaurant looking building.

    I am playing Fred Astair and Judy Rogers. I was always enamored with Ginger Rogers as a kid. I did tap too so watching her and Fred was great.

    In other news I have been at the painting again. No pics yet i haven't finished the peice but I did some very colorful mountains that are OK. I love painting so much i am not even simming as much. Though i wish i had an easel that was like the one from Uni , in real life. I like having the back board instead of just a wooden frame.

    So this last week has had some interesting news,I can't really share it on here, but it's a whole situation that could be a big life changer, only it's out of our control and we just have to wait , probably 6 months or so. So think good thoughts that it's all positive news.

    Simmielina, i enjoyed your last update, i need to check if you have posted more.

    Everyone i miss you! Fare well!

    I'm thinking positive vibes for you, krimson, although I hope it doesn't involve have to pull up stakes and move again. That would be a tremendous hassle!

    No news here. I haven't been Simming much, since I've been running around a lot with friends, but hoping to get to it later today. I got some of the stuff back in the game, but things which used to be outerwear no longer are (those nice 1920s coats!) So I'm a bit bummed, since I counted on that for the new game. On the plus side, Baron & Jade are officially married off and ready to move to Roaring Heights (I keep thinking of it as River Heights, a la Nancy Drew!)

    Hello My dear simmer friends!

    It's been long since I last was here. I've been around for a couple of weeks, but I didn't see the thread, so I decided yesterday to start a search and found it today. I tried adding numbers to the link, but I still get to the same post, so I guess these are the last ones.

    I haven´t read the post though, but I've seen a couple of nice pictures of simmies.

    I hope you all are fine BD, Krim, WRoberts, Honeyhoney, Mystic, DDsims, Kloreley, MS, and the rest of you whom I havent met. I'll try to read you from time to time.
    But I think is time to start a new thread. Hope BD starts it soon.

    Hugs to y'll

    good evening, It's about 8 here, and I feel like im back in school with all the homework and tests and reports im helping my son with! I didn't really want to do it over again ;p

    I haven't popped in as much, not alot to say i suppose and just rather busy.
    I check into read though.

    Simmilina I have read more on your blog. I appreciate you sharing updates here as i never get round to the stories forum. I enjoy reading it.

    NH Nice to see you pop in. Yes i try to get into this thread but it's been harder to get to. I am glad you at least get a little play time. Good thing is our simmies don't complain if we stay away for a bit.

    Lumy wow nice to see you back! I miss seeing your presence on the forums! welcome back, help your self to a cookie..they are weeks old lol. Must do the shopping. But maybe shopping for a new thread.

    I have been playing in roaring heights and getting the town up to snuff. I am armed with venues from the forum creators that are wonderful. Please do look at the world sharing thread in WORLDS forum , and in the store is a roller coaster thread. Amazing lots!

    I have not had the patience to try a coaster build but i enjoy others.

    I haven't been building as much because i have been enjoying restyling sims in all my games. But i made a great seafood restaurant i need to upload (also that toy store)(and the french quarter cafe). I have however been doing a lot of decorating of the empty buildings or meh buildings in various worlds. It has kept me pretty entertained.
    I need to start taking pictures and post a big pic post. Or maybe start a new thread just for a bunch of decorating pics in Creative Corner...what do you think?

    I have just been a lazy poster lol!

    Oh and let us Welcome Aaeiyn. Thanks for popping in!

    Von Thank you for the good vibrations! This is more than likely very nice news. It's hard keping from being too excited but i don't want to rock the boat and be disapointed when it doesnt pan out. However we arn't going to be moving which is great! I actually really like it here, so does my son. Hubby mostly does but his schedule makes it a lonely place, nothing to do at the wee hours. Also the actual apartment is small, hot and breaking apart. So we are staying in this place really only for the incredible school. Wish we could afford a better place in the same area but the price jumps quite a bit.

    Von you will love having your sims in Roaring Heights, after you add some venues especially. You don't even have to add new ones if you don't want because there are several "intended" venues that just need some decor and updating to be shops and restaurants. I am glad i haven't updated id the outerwear was broken!!! There is so few as it is.

    Ok well to wrap it up I need to run off. wake the hubby and figure out some food stuff. I have food to cook but im so tired by 9 and he only has an hour to get ready and leave so i can't really dig in and make something that will take to long. So maybe tuna sandwich or something. '

    Right tata for now!

    krimsonnox: If you do post a new thread please let me know...I did send a friend request (I hope that is ok)...I miss the simmers I've gotten to know through the years and you are certainly on my favorites list..I enjoy your creations and just general chatter. The simmers who post here are very friendly and such a fun group...having to figure out where the last post is...it makes it tough.

    Wow, it's really been 4 weeks since I dropped in here :?: :shock: I knew it'd been too long, 'cuz I couldn't remember when it was.

    I've finally got my planner & files updated. Just last week, too, :hunf: but after all, it was a years worth of stuff, not only my own. My shredder is going to be mad for days. Every year, about twice, I ditch the dainty-work & grind it like a peppermill. :lol:
    I do kind of get off on being able to take a stack of nicely piled papers & start feeding them in steadily, so it whirs like a sewing machine at high speed. :D It's the same kind of joy I get from popping bubble wrap. Pure kid stuff. :mrgreen:

    On a down-ish note, it seems like there's been a whole lotta shakin' goin' on @SimsHeadquarters. :| I was looking at the news on SimsVIP. So many Gurus gone over the last few weeks. I really hope -whatever is going on- that everything works out for the very best for everyone.
    Also via SimsVIP, Ea has pushed TS4 out of the projections for the 2014 fiscal year That's intense. I wonder what the new timeline will be. It's sounding very flexible, atm. :|

    Anyway, on a very up note, I've gotten back into simming. Spent the whole day today doing so -off & on-. Awesome. :mrgreen: I semi-simmed for about a week, getting called off for something every time I sat down for ten minutes. :? Atm, I'm totally thrilled & totally exhausted, & off to bed as soon as I post this, I think. :)
    (Okay, maybe I'll steal into the kitchen & sneak a few spoons of Ben & Jerry's, but if you didn't see me, it didn't happen. :wink: )
    I'll post pics next time. :)


    krimsonnox;
    I have things before Sims before. It does feel a little wrong, doesn't. :mrgreen:
    I know what you mean about having an easel that supports your paintings. I am that girl who gets into the zone, work slipping slightly with each move, & suddenly it falls right between the a-frame supports & hits the floor, banging the leg on the way. :roll: Used to happen with drawings, but I learned real fast with the 1st painting.
    Best thoughts comin' at ya'. Hope it all works out beautifully for you. :)
    You should do that. A decorating pic thread sounds great. :)

    vonHentzau;
    The widow I imagine in my elixir shop is yet childless, but come to think of it, & it might be that she'll wanna adopt. Pass down the shop/legacy. :)

    Lumysims2000;
    Glad to see you pop in. *Hugs back* :)

    Nh6650, & Wickichick;
    Hi. Hope you're both well. :)

    Hiya, to everybody here for the 1st time. :)


    Happy simming. :)

    Hello to all my Simmer Pals, sorry it's been so long between the move, packing, unpacking and Christmas and my Father passing just so many other things I just haven't had any time but will be back to normal now or I should say I hope so. I do have to go and see and Orthopedic Monday because I fell twice a day apart when moving in and I guess from being on my leg so much I went into excrutiating pain for quite some time but now the pain is better but still having problems the doctor said I have a torn cartilage. So hopefully I'll just need some therapy. He did say that sometimes they can heal on their own so fingers crossed.
    As you all know I am now a Texan and I do love it here but miss my home in Ohio lived in Ohio all my life.
    What do you all think of Sims 4? I'm on the fence about it since every thing at EA is so sketchy right now and I haven't seen any other age groups which worries me.
    How would you all like to play a game?
    How many Worlds have we gotten for Sims 3 including with expansions?
    Guess right and you will receive a prize.
    Also I'm trying to think of a new build game so will let you all know on that.
    I love the new Venue it is just so awesome gonna go and play my game some and will try and do a little at a time to do some catching up on everyones post.
    Hugs from your Simmer pal BD. I've missed you all so much and thank you to everyone for keeping this thread going a special thanks to Krim.

    Good afternoon gang. how is everyone's simming Saturday going. ::brings pizza and sets it on the counter:: "Oh dear this counter hasn't been cleaned since november. ;p"

    I have started sims up twice today and lost some progress due to crashing. I didn't lose total progress but enough to be irritating. I am considering updating but not sure. Any one using the updated Twallen mods>?

    BD Thank you for the game. I forgot lunar lakes and hidden springs i think.

    Hiya GBA, haven't seen you for a bit. I haven't just started over completely in awhile but sometimes its the best thing when your games given you too much trouble. I couldn't play with out the EP's though. Maybe without this last one (ITF). I don't feel like that adds too much into my game.



    Oh dear i left this post open without posting when i went to bed. I will hit post now and continue on later.
    Mystic! Nice to see you though I wish you were doing better! hope the surgery goes marvelously and you are back reading with us soon! :hugs:
