    So far in my personal ten generation challenge:

    The first Generation is nearly over. It started with Jericho and Zoe Blackadder and their son, Edmond. They were two kids from "across the tracks" that fell in love, got pregnant and had to make something out of themselves at a young (adult) age. Both of the parents reached their goals, Jericho was a celeb chef and Zoe became the chief of police. Edmond graduated university and is a skilled artist and "Master of the Ral". he married Jade Rosa and they have daughter, Chloe, who is in elementary school.

    Sadly after seeing his granddaughter off for her first day of elementary school Jericho passed away just before he could serve one of his gourmet dinners to his family...just the evening before New Years.

    It's especially sad since Jericho had spent Winterfest opening gifts with Chloe and playing with his granddaughter. His passing hit his family hard as they were all close. Even little Chloe. Zoe is really despondent with the death of her life partner. She sent a sad text to her friend Summer Holiday who invited her over to cheer her up.

    Zoe is putting on a brave face for New Years Eve. Edmond and Jade are considering having another child. Zo laments that she may not be here for her 2nd grandchild as the family prepares for New Years Eve without Jericho.

    META: Juggling work schedules I hired a nanny before Chloe became a "kid". I had to rehire him when his time expired, but the last time he stayed for days! I was a little shocked at that, but hey, it saved me the issue of having to call for a nanny. When Chloe aged up to a kid he charged his fee and left. He'll be back, I'm sure, since he became close to the family in his extended saty.

    Zoe and Jericho had made friends with Father Winter a long time ago. They invited him to the Winterfest meal. Then ANOTHER Father Winter showed up to deliver presents! I wondered how that worked since I thought he was like Santa Claus.

    I haven't played in a while but I began again the other day and some stuff has happened. (Lots of pics inside a few spoilers so open and close each one as and when.)

    When I loaded the game I was resuming with Sylas and Luke.
    Some very important Grant content to start off.

    Happy little family.

    There'd been a bike outside their house for so long, which was bugging me, and I didn't know how to get rid of it because it belonged to some other Sim. Then I learnt I could get one of my Sims to move it by cycling it onto their lot, and I sold it lol. But Sylas had a little cycle about first.
    zwPQtm7.png

    He also managed to set the toilet on fire.
    8FnxzFp.png

    Twice.
    Pr7fvFo.png

    Then I visited the Gilberts across the road.
    For some reason, little Jesse was standing outside by himself.
    I6viJ9J.png

    He went to watch daddy swimming.
    yrkPslh.png

    Had nummies in bed the next morning.
    WFP2khQ.png

    Had cuddles with Bouncer.
    nijRQnb.png

    Saw the fish.
    YLgzDR9.png

    And I got the camera angle just so to make it look like the fish in the tank were floating.
    ggJqnto.png

    He went outside for a bit with Tegan.

    Then he had very important business to attend to...

    Next morning...
    I caught him.

    Oooh, what's the family turning up for, I wonder??
    7rZfq7J.png

    Someone was having a birthday party!
    k5soSjV.png

    He's a big kid now!
    PdJXZdd.png

    Birthday dances!
    Z6mJohp.png

    But I did want to change his face a bit, and update his outfits.
    V77jm5z.png

    I loved his hair too much to not keep it, so I'm gonna assume he's experimenting with straighteners!

    In other Gilbert news...
    Brodie got tiger stripes!? I didn't know what was happening, never seen a Sim with tiger stripes before, so I Googled it and found out it's an illness? It didn't last long but I found it interesting and weird.

    Necessary dog pics.

    I've never seen this kinda artwork before. Idk what Wren made.
    4oZ7Omr.png

    And I saw a whole new side of Joshua.
    MLzY5DH.png

    Elsewhere in the neighbourhood...
    Noel Hodges and his daughters, Daisy and Loki.
    p2hUrgV.png

    Calm.

    Loki then wanted to go out.
    GRUncxU.png

    But dad was busy disappointing kids.
    7Tfr3lb.png

    Loki asked Daisy, the infant who can't even lift her head up yet, to take her for a walk. Adorable and very funny lol.
    qum6V7t.png

    While the babysitter, Tristan, fed Daisy, Loki helped herself to the toilet...
    igScCWL.png

    Then this happened when Tristan was with Loki outside.
    zPf95yn.png
    gcB0TBF.png

    A major event happened in their household though. I created this young lady for him because of two reasons. 1, he's really not handling being a single dad of an infant and a dog. And 2, he got offered an inheritance if he gets married within 7 days, or something like that, which he's stressed about.

    So meet Kayleigh Hobbes! :) I made sure they're really compatible because he's a loner, and I know what that's like, so she had to be perfect for him.
    sEWeVVG.png

    Here's him explaining his stress of having to find a wife in just a few days...
    HjGEJER.png

    She already seems to be really good with Daisy and Loki.
    LyvwUPP.png
    f06FGfe.png

    And there might be a little bit of romance between them...
    HOnjaXZ.png

    Things got back to being weird though when Tristan turned up out the blue and began playing a violin on their porch. Because why not.
    WdRywfx.png
    i2WGOQ9.png

    Oh, and...
    KEEtuVj.png

    Over with the new Pancakes I created (because I haven't spent enough time with them yet)...
    Cute moment of Bobby feeding baby alien Sylvia and Ian came to sit in his bed to eat breakfast with them.
    8uwThxv.png

    It was a Sunday, no-one was working, so they had a family day out.
    NE7SBhz.png
    lZJTZMf.png

    Same, Sylvia.
    Jvj6Ujk.png

    She was actually just doing push ups with that guy.
    8P3gdDA.png

    Don't worry guys, I'll watch your kids for you...
    vm2DNzd.png
    wRJIbIl.png

    Ian: "So, you see, daddy, you shouldn't leave two helpless babies to fend for themselves. Anyone could've kidnapped us."
    E07ZL5v.png
    nQGLy1R.png

    I was concerned about Sylvia though. Rosa put her on the ground when I told her to go home...
    yJaDZnO.png

    But she did pick her up again lol.
    Yv2TsbC.png

    I then had Rosa visit the Gilberts because they'd lost contact, and she met Bouncer.
    HN8Lcxn.png

    Tried to get Brodie to sign something, but he didn't care.
    YyMV8C2.png

    And she outstayed her welcome.

    Zoe is still alive, but she can go any second....and she might have to.

    Jade gave birth to twin girls, Mackenzie and Kayleigh. I'm almost certainly going to need a bigger house.

    Weird thing though: At the hospital every staff member was a ghost! I'll post a pic once I figure out how. Has anyone else had that happen?

    Ok, I figured out ho post screen caps. Yay me.

    Anyhoo...why is the hospital totally run by ghosts? When Jade went to give birth with her tubby hubby in tow the doctor was a spirit!

    Thats actually the least of my worries, I don't know if I can manage twin infants/toddlers on top of the other sims. I'd like to get Jade to her career pinnacle (investor) and it'll be a chore while raising the kids.

    Walks into a hospital - discovers that everyone working there are ghosts. Should I worry...? ;) A very different set up, but nice!

    I only had a very short play session today (about a single in-game day) but I did finish up a project I have been thinking about for a while. I was playing a family that lives in the lot "Oakenstead" (Sage Estate - Willow Creek). There is this little gazebo that my sims never use and I have the idea to turn it into a greenhouse. And today I decided to give it a try. I don't think I did to bad... The only special thing about it is the lapms on the outside that I had to place with Moveobjects.

    52966734883_a06f664361_b.jpg

    As both of the family members are into gardening I liked the idea even better. Annika, the woman on the right, even was the city gardener before.

    Kim is an alien who completed a serial romantic aspiration. Now she's moving forward in her Sim life studies and it's time to have a family. She randomly chose one of her lovers to be her husband and a father of her child. The victim chosen one is Salim Benali.
    Kim just got pregnant and told Salim the happy news in a restaurant.

    I gave a couple four kids (females) because I thought they would make cute offspring. I aged them up to young adults, saved the household, deleted them from that save, and created a new save with the mom young adult and the four sisters young adults. So they are a household of roomies and they are SUPER cute. I don't really know what I will do with them but I like the way they turned out. I put them in Sulani in a huge house that I got from Oasis and turned into a beach house. They have just been chilling and socializing, dancing and playing video games so far. I need to get them out into social situations, maybe put them in a club in Get Together so they can meet some friends and perhaps love interests. I had to keep all of them, they are all so pretty lol.
    All my daily trances, and all my nightly dreams, are where thy grey eye glances, and where thy footstep gleams.
    I dance to the beat of my own drum, no matter how measured or far away.
    I do love a road. You can always be wondering what is at the end of it.

    Nothing much to report. My laptop is not my friend lately. I'm surprised I could access the Internet today. I was only able to play my game once, since Thursday, last. Less than a full Sim Day. All I can say is that finally Peter's parents are taking care of him. Phew! I'll try to come back when I have more.

    In the "Sims 2 in Sims 4" save that I'm doing:

    - Brad Burb, the oldest son of John & Jennifer Burb, has moved out into a small home in San Sequoia. Although everyone expected him to start a career as a professional musician, given his piano talent, he's instead playing for the Sequoia Bay Buccaneers. When checking his relationships I noticed that he had a daughter by Arial Capp, so I got them married. Then the game crashed, so I think now I have to play Brad's early career again. oof.

    - Ann Monty, daughter of Bianca Monty, has also moved out. She bought a large house with one of her high school buddies, Daisy Greenman, but she died in the bathroom of I-don't-know-what. Maybe death by anger or laughing or something. Ann had to get another roomie or leave the house, because it is entirely too much for a high school grad trying to paint her way through uni. I fetched Ayesha Ansari (one of my Sims 3 favorites) from the gallery and moved her in. I had placed Ayesha in the police career, but I forgot how tedious and un-fun the active careers are, so she'll probably switch to the military -- that, or I'll just use MCC to promote her at appropriate intervals.

    - Lucy Burb and her partner Chastity now have three science-babies and an old-fashioned one from Dustin Broke. Everyone lives on the lawn of the tiny house and only go inside to cook or take care of bladder/hygiene.

    - Following the death of Consort Capp, Tybalt Capp, his wife Violet, and their three children moved back in, forcing Consort's young widow Elizabeth (Aspir) Capp to move into Tybalt's former residence, Capp Minor. I'm not playing the house, but I didn't want the mansion to fall into the hands of non-Capps.


    In another save, I created an instance of sim-me and plopped him down in Brindleton Bay. I usually like the northeast blank lot because it's near the beach, but I tried the blank lot near the town to see how it was. I'm going to move him because I can't find an a fishing spot. I'm hoping to use this save as a static one to just run around doing things, instead of drifting into a legacy. Sim-me always has a minimalist house (I have a cabin design I use a lot), but now I have him in a tiny house which follows the same floorplan as Lucy's https://i.imgur.com/IQPzvHO.jpg. I'm also planning only make him write/paint etc when he wants to, since there's no real reason to rack up money or fame. So far he's doing well in high school, but Catalina Lynx invited herself over along with three pets. She was quickly asked to leave.

    I made a new mermaid that is an "insider" and "dance machine" and "romantic" - placed her in Sulani of course but traveled to the Get Together world (can't remember the name!) to go to a club, where she started a relationship with Diego Lobo from the City Living world. She also started relationships with three other people but I don't remember their names. I have to figure out the trajectory of her life. I always go into my saves not knowing what I'm going to do, until I kind of see their personality a bit I guess and see who they interact with and how and etc. Not super story oriented, more fly by the seat of my pants and see what happens, see where things go.

    Nothing much, I've been busy having a manic episode, as can be seen from my last post. I tried playing one of my single young adult households, but after quitting without saving at least 10 times I discovered that I hate it even more than children. Either that, or Lya is just an exceptionally annoying sim - which may explain why I almost never play her.

    Yay, finally my laptop allowed me to get on the Internet, so I have access to my pictures. Erik said good-bye to his eldest three children as they went off to school. He then went down to Taygeta Studios to work on another album, his twenty-first. While he was gone, Kayleigh realized she goofed when she registered the twins for school. So, only Harmony was registered. Melodie was sent home. So, the girl got an idea and decided to act on it. She turned on the video rig and presented a vlog on Fashion How-Tos. Erik discovered the vlog thanks to a concerned fan of his who posted it on his Simstagram page. This did not make Erik a happy man.

    But, once he returned from the studios, his newest album released to the world, he spoke to the wee girl and then learned why she was home and into mischief. Little Peter is a very gassy baby and often fusses. It was all Kayleigh could do to keep Peter happy, and Andrew out of trouble, let alone watch her school-aged Child. Erik scolded Melodie and told her if he found out she posted another one, after this warning, she would be banned from his Man Cave and if that didn't work, he would simply lock her out of it.

    Peter, finally learned how to sit up, which made his parents very happy. Kayleigh fed him some Rice Porridge, hoping he would sleep better on a fuller stomach. Erik greeted his three children as they got home from school and learned the girls had both managed to bring their C grade up to a B. Jamison's A grade was holding steady. The father praised his kids and then they asked about the Starlight Accolades Show and was he nervous. Erik answered their questions patiently and then left them to do their homework.

    Still playing around with the sim-me. He died of hunger, but fortunately Ash Harajo had been invited over, so I used MCC to add them to the household. Their pleading was unsuccessful, despite the high relationship, but I invited ghost-me to join the household and then used MCC to un-ghost him. I think I'm going to have him move around from neighborhood to neighborhood for a bit and see what happens. He just graduated early from high school, so Brichester is probably the next stop.

    I added Arun Bheeda and Jesminder Bheeda to the career-oriented polygamous household that I started today - I cleared her pregnancy because now the count is at 8 (young) adults. Also they're too involved with their careers to have kids. I changed her chin and hairstyle. Arun just went off to work and I have like four sims that start work in two sims hours. But I have to irl start doing stuff around the house because I have a pile of laundry waiting on me. :s It took forever to get one of my sims to finish her book. I guess she had writer's block or something?

    Writing a book rarely happens in a day. Years ago, I would sit down at my typewriter (yeah the old kind) and tell myself, today I will finish this book. Only to run out of day and the story was still far from being finished. It's much better to set realistic goals, such as so many words a day, or to finish a chapter. If you use mods, there is one that can speed things up.

    That's why I felt kind of bad about forcing her to write it lol, but it was something she was supposed to do before her work shift started. Technically she had three days, at least? Although books take way more than three days irl too! I just wanted her to get the credit for it, though

    At first I thought Brodie was cooking a brush. He was just cleaning the brand new BBQ that hasn't been used yet. I think he inherited my anxiety issues when I made him.

    So I emailed the older save from when I was moving computers and was too lazy to do it again so I replayed the birth of this little lady and she is clearly not amused...I think she was blond last time lol.

    Due to her player trait her mother can have anyone, and amazingly after trying to get her second boyfriend (he's married even) pregnant she woke up with a fear of being cheated on so I let her talk over her fears and show her love to her main man...hehe
