What a Week

Hannah Paints

I’ve played a Sim week since I last posted, so here’s some quick highlights.  Hannah is painting.  She is the first of the teens to even touch the easel that’s been sitting in the living room since the game started.  She painted about this much and hasn’t touched it since.

Sink Bath

Some of the teens (namely Hannah and Michael) have stopped showering, choosing instead to take sponge baths in the kitchen sink.  Hannah has also been wearing a bathing suit to school and sleeping in her formal dress.  Abigail has started sneaking up on the other teens and scaring them.  Isabella keeps randomly insulting people, but she has quit sneaking off to the gym after school, she just works out in front of the TV at home.

Sink Broke, Again

And, of course, everything has been breaking.   Here the sink broke after Emma left for for work and flooded about half the living room and the whole kitchen, plus the computer broke.  The shower has broken twice and the toilet keeps clogging but I did replace the fire damaged grill.   Emma’s handiness is at eight now and her logic is up to five, she’s been playing a lot of chess in the evenings and she’s working on upgrading all the appliances to unbreakable.

Emma has been promoted, she’s no longer a coffee courier but is now a filing clerk and the household account reached §1000 for the first time.  I would say that things are going really good for Emma, but she spends most of her time stressed out and fixing broken appliances.  The only time she seems to have fun is when she is either playing chess or cooking.

I realized today that once Emma maxes out her handiness and logic points, my challenge is over and I can end my game.  I think I’ll turn aging back on and play until all the teens have become young adults so I can have the pleasure of kicking them out of the house.  I’m actually starting to enjoy the game now and it’s almost over.
