With Pierce now in their lives it's only natural that Cleo, Evan's half-sister who he was forced to basically raise before moving out at 18, shows up. Theirs is a harder relationship, but Evan is trying.

This is what Supriya did during the day - she didn’t treat many patients, even though there were plenty.

and finally for the ea townies in brindleton bay, we have catarina lynx and her beloved feline friends! as always, if you’d like to have them in your game then check out the download link below, and if not then i hope that you enjoy reading their fact files!

download: simfileshare

catarina lynx:

in case you couldn’t tell, maybe just a tiny bit obsessed with cats - her mom is allergic so she could never have one of her own growing up, but her aunt had the most gorgeous siamese cat that catarina would fawn over every time she visited, so as soon as she moved out and got a place of her own, the first thing she did was start looking for local shelters to volunteer at and, well, i think you can imagine what happened next...

loves thunderstorms; they’re the perfect excuse for snuggling up on the sofa in front of the fireplace with a big blanket, a mug of tea, a cat on her lap and a great book to read - her bookshelves are all stuffed with books she’s picked up over the year from yard sales and although some are total duds, she still loves working her way through them and imagining the reasons why they were ever bought in the first place

has always had a knack for cooking, but actually likes cooking up treats for her cats instead of cooking for herself - making human food is too much like her job for her to ever get really excited about (although she does find it very therapeutic), but figuring out new recipes she can prepare for her pets (and any strays that decide to wander by for a meal) is ridiculously fun

doc: 

the first cat catarina adopted - as soon as she first set foot in brindleton bay’s animal shelter and spotted him (and realised how much he reminded her of her aunt’s beloved cat), he was destined to be hers

being the original and oldest cat in the household, he has a real superiority complex and often feels he can boss the other cats around - but most of the time this manifests as him being grumpy and hogging the sofa 

too much of a snob to care about the cat food catarina gets from the store, but will happily eat his fill of anything catarina makes from scratch for him

josie:

very protective of her son - will hiss at any cat that dares push him around and often scratches up the furniture if she catches catarina scolding him

the bad bitch of the cat world and knows it - walks around like she owns the place and pretty much does tbh; if any other cats in the neighbourhood come into contact with her and look at her the wrong way then she’s not afraid to go back to her alley cat street fighting ways

scared the life out of catarina when she wandered off for the first time and didn’t return for a couple of days, but has since made quite the habit of it - always somewhow knows to come back before catarina gets too worried though 

cleo:

looks super funky with her spaced out eyes and lack of hair, but when catarina found her at the shelter she fell in love with her - quirks and all! 

broke catarina’s heart at the shelter because she was always so eager to meet the families that would visit but would almost always get rejected because she wasn’t the ‘cute, fluffy kitty’ they were expecting to see

super intelligent, especially when it comes to figuring out when food is about to be served or bath time is about to be announced - she claimed the top spot of the cat tower very quickly and has used it as her look-out tower ever since

bartholomew a. bittlebun, jr:

gave catarina the fright of her life when she discovered him and his siblings with their mom, josie, in the back corner of her closet - although his brothers and sisters went on to other loving homes, he was always the little runt of the litter and neither catarina or josie could bear letting him go, and he hasn’t left catscratch cottage since

was named after his assumed father, bartholomew a. bittlebun, sr. - the only reason catarina caught wind of who his father may be was when the delgato family’s cat wandered over to her side of town and wouldn’t leave josie alone the entire time he was there - she thought their name for him was so brilliant that his son should have an equally distinguished title

spoilt to no end by catarina - she never thought that she’d have a kitten because she was so eager to help out the cats that had been left at the shelter and had passed their ‘cuteness’ adoption window, so getting to keep bartholomew jr to shower with little toys and lots of cuddles has been amazing for both of them

Pleasantview +25 years recap

Pleasantview +25 years is my attempt at joining all my favorite families through out the franchise in one save. I've spent about four days in creating over 45 families that populate all of the worlds I have in The Sims 4. And when I say I created them, I actually mean I downloaded them from the gallery. =//) I'm not particularly good at creating Sims... Willow Creek are only Pleasantview Sims, Oasis Springs are mostly Strangetown Sims, Newcrest are mostly rich Sims from all the games, San Myshuno is everyone I didn't know where to locate them, mostly single Sims, and Banacle Bay are the creative and LGBT Sims. I also really need to thank @homijoh for sharing her rule set with us some time ago. I loved it and I'm using it for this rotational game play. For more information (I warn you, A LOT of Information since I tell a thing or two about every family) look behind the cut!

Willow Creek:

Broke I Household: Brandi, Beau and Skip Junior – Brandi never remarried and did an okay job at raising three boys on her own.

Broke II Household: Dustin, Angela, Susan, Mitch, Melinda, Brad – Dustin had got Angela pregnant as a teen and from that day on, their relationship went downhill. Why they are still together? Probably because of their four children.

Dreamer Household: Dirk, Lilith, Hugo, Irmi – Hugo and Irmi are twins and their parent's whole proud.

I haven’t played much until now, only about 36 hours with the Broke I household. I suspect it to be a bit buggy with SO many sims (it’s already 147) but I hope my PC can handle it. I’m really excited to play this!

And here’s the vacation of the Overtons!

First day of their vacation, Cleo brings pancakes with gummy bears.  QWERTY takes a mudbath and a bubble bath.  So far, they’re enjoying their time off.  They even got a WooHoo off.  Justin Delgato walks in, says QWERTY looks nice, and leaves...

Not much happens during the days off.  It’s pretty slow, though Edward’s skills are improving quickly.

Event: Shopping Spree! (buy books and seeds and anything you can buy).

Well, they have been complaining that their stuff is cheap.  They promptly use up the 6000 simoleons they had saved up on a new bed, new toilet, new bathroom sink, and new fridge.  With that, they’re back to poor.  But they should sleep better now.

[mdianasims]

It seems Lissy is having a really bad day, Derek has to take over all her patients and they’re hyper stressed as usual.

[mdianasims]

More vetting. And lots of red glowing noses today.

[mdianasims]

Treating some patients, though Lissy looks like she has no clue what she’s doing.

[mdianasims]

Turns out Supriya needs to improve her work ethic a little... Derek decided it’d be easier if he treated Catarina’s cat Cleo himself.

previous | beginning | next

[mdianasims]

The clinic is sort of too small... It’s getting very crowded with two vets, two patients and two owners in this small room.

(nevertheless, we’re getting 4 star ratings, so that’s not too bad)

Aging Settings

When @anotherplumbob posted his aging settings earlier today, I commented that they were very similar to mine. Then I got the request to share them ;) Which I will -

stage - number of days - number of years in human terms - cumulative years

I know the young adult stage is rather long, but this does mean that adults in principle don’t have babies. I’ve also set the MCCC pregnancy module to not allow adults to have babies.

So far I like these settings, they should give enough space for personal development of Sims in between of all the holidays. And they also give a bit of space for more plotted storytelling if desired. (Mind, this is the first save I’m playing with aging on since 2014).

Here are my settings for pets: stage - days min-max - cumulative years min-max

For dogs I kind of had to go in between of what’s normal for small and large dogs. I love that the variation does work, some examples under the cut.

My pets from A Vets Life were all 0 days adult when I put them in my Legacy save as townies.

Unfortunately, Skip is already an elder.

Laika, Leon and Sly are almost elders

And Nugget...

Nugget has been blessed with a long life - which doesn’t surprise me at all.

In comparison I have Bartholomew A Bittlebun Jr. (I think I may have delete Sr. at the start of the game when I moved the Delgatos).

He started out as a kitten, so his days as an adult are fewer than Nugget’s. I also tried Josie and Cleo (Doc died quite a while ago), but they seem to be glitched as they have apparently lived less days than Bartho, which doesn’t make sense at all.

And for those of you that are observant and good at math, this means that Heather is currently approximately 28 years old.

We return to the QWERY and Elmer Overton story!

Cleo Sertori moves into town.  We will invite her over in the morning.  While QWERTY is at work, Cleo comes over.  Edward spent the first day as a toddler potty training as Elmer becomes friends with their newest neighbor.  QWERTY gets a job promotion right as Elmer leaves... leaving Cleo alone with Edward for like five minutes.  Cleo’s feeling flirty as she and QWERTY start talking... huh.  Cleo and QWERTY quickly hit things off and become good friends while Elmer is at work.  Job promotion for Elmer, too!  Edward has a nightmare, so QWERTY reads him back to sleep.

Tuesday, both parents spend the day teaching Edward life stuff.  Justin Delgato admits his feelings for QWERTY over text.  Dude, you’re both married to other people!

Wednesday morning, Edward surprises his parents by going down the stairs by himself.  Candy is back at her surprise visits.  Justin tries to invite QWERTY over, but the request goes on ignored.  Elmer gets promoted, and with this promotion, a new time slot for work.  Now, Edward will have to go to the daycare for a couple of hours each day!

Next Event: Sick! (Household has to stay home for the next three days.  This includes school and work.  They also need to relax in bed a lot and not do anything that takes a lot of energy.)

Well... I guess I spoke too soon about the daycare.  And I guess it’s as good as any to have them use their vacation time.
