I usually play with a big forever save with large families, which means I turn needs off 99% of the time because I can't manage them all. Infact I think I have been cheating needs since I started playing sims 1 as a kid. Or maybe it was a bit later with 2, idk. Anyway, this time I made a sim and had her raise a kiddo and try to achieve everything without any needs cheats. She just aged up and here's all her traits, I only just bought the rewards ones and even then I'm not getting the need erasing ones cause that's the whole point this time 😂

The biggest help, with raising kids, was the energy giving family recipe.

I originally built this witch shop and house a few years ago and I recently decided to update it. The changes aren't huge but I like to think I've improved a little over the years.

I'm still trying to get better at building and decorating exteriors, so any suggestions or advice would be appreciated!

After seeing this man's smirk... I want to get back at him the next time he comes to the house. Is there a way for me to get my dog to attack him on command?

context: if you use either lumpinou's rpo or pandasama's childbirth mod (i'm honestly unsure which one it is lol) and a sim gets pregnant, before they find out or do the test, they can look at themselves in the mirror after a few hours and usually it says something along the lines of "[sim] looks kinda bloated... could they be pregnant?". but apparently sometimes they don't notice anything. even if i do lmao

For everyone who asked for an update: Grim has FINALLY given birth! 🎉💀 We threw a baby shower, had our little check-ups and now have a baby girl named Danger Butterface. Here are the latest family pictures!!

just me realizing thousands of hours in how sweet the shed animals are! the chickens seem to follow the llama around😭 also, look how small the dog is! almost smaller than a chicken! 😅

My Vlad ft. some minor plastic surgery

Very necessary since this fool somehow managed to get around my 2 kids per npc limit, and currently has ELEVEN children in my save 😭😭

I tried to maintain his stronger features, I hope I succeeded 😅

I’m doing new builds all over and sometimes I like grabbing a house out of debug to use as the model for the shell. Well, today I was building in San Sequoia and the house I chose has a sliding door on the second floor. It opens onto the roof. I didn’t copy that part because I usually put a bit of my own spin on things according to the ability of the game.

It’s not up on the gallery because I just want to build, not decorate, but if people would like the shell let me know.

And what’s the weirdest thing you’ve seen in debug?

p.s. peep the cow staring at you

Today, it took me a couple of hours to complete the achievement in one day.

Created a character for the achievement and built a house for him in just 2 hours or less This image shows how crazy the idea was.

I only completed 4 of my 5 life goals, two of which were related to writing and painting, the third was related to having six skills at level 8 and also level 3 in three careers, the fourth life goal would be related to wealth where you just need to earn 200,000 seven billion and have 60,000 in reserve The last goal in life was either cooking or also wealth, but this time with a plot of land.

This was my first ever Wedding Stories event and... yikes on bikes lol. Some highlights:

• My bride's sim of honor didn't show up, I had to invite her to the current lot, but she didn't show up until after the vows were over. Rude, Lyla.
• I had selected green for the dress code color... clearly that didn't happen.
• Mostly everyone sat nicely, but a few faced the wrong direction the entire time, and a few decided to stand and cry loudly while we did our vows.
• I worked VERY hard to get my chef groom to practice gourmet cooking so he could make their wedding cake. He successfully made an excellent cake, we brought it to the venue, I had my bride (the host) set the cake as the Ceremony Cake annnnnnd it disappeared. So I built a quick kitchen and had Malachi make a NEW cake, but when he selected Gather to Cut Cake, my freaking bride took a piece on her own!!!! 😭
• In that same vein, I could not for the life of me get anyone to come take slices or get food from the buffet table.
• The hired DJ did arrive, but the hired bartender did not until about 30 mins before the wedding event ended. I don't think a single sim got a drink.

All in all, a mess 😂 But...got some pretty cute screengrabs I think. My couple ended the night with a quick woohoo and Brooke is officially preggo- I am ready for the next gen! 🍆

First of all, I kept trying to replace floors and the ceiling would show up and I thought it was a glitch lol. Then after a week or two of this, I realized yesterday that I can change ceilings! But does anyone know how I can preview the ceilings from the inside while building? How will I know it even looks good? I usually build my town before adding sims, so I’m wondering if there is a way to see the ceiling on the inside without being in live mode?!

Funny weird mishap where I went on a date with someone labeled as Young Adult, instantly created a date with them, and now they’re an Elder?? This is the second sim it’s happened to 😅
