Build-n-Share Challenge #9
#9 A Very Merry Christmas Part II This Week’s Challenge Specifics: Sitting at home, curled up in front of your fire, you feel very pleased with yourself. You have made someone's Holiday so very special this year. As you find yourself nodding off to sleep you imagine that you can hear sleigh bells in the distance. You figure you must be dreaming as they sound like they are getting closer. They stop and as someone knocks on your front door you are wide awake. "Who on earth could be calling at this time on Boxing Day?" You ask yourself. You slowly unfurl yourself from your cosy chair and reticently leave the warmth of the fire, heading to the front door. You open it to be faced with someone who looks a lot like Santa Claus!
"Ah wonderful, I just wanted to come and thank you for completing The Lines' home so spectacularly."
You blink, figuring that you must actually still be asleep.
You nod mutely at the jolly gentleman dressed in red.
"I have another favour to ask of you though..." He says, almost shyly.
Again, unable to find your voice, you nod.
"Well, I'll ask Mrs C to email you all the details. Wishing you a Happy New Year!!"
Feeling a little absurd you nod once more.
And just like that he steps of of your font porch and into the sleigh waiting at the end of your driveway. Sleigh bells start up as you find yourself staring at a dozen reindeer all hooked up to the front of it. Closing the door, you head to your office and unlock your tablet and there waiting for you is an email from mrandmrsc@thenorthpole.com. Shaking your head, you open it.
My Dear,
Thank you once more for the wonderful job you did for The Lines family. It has come to my attention that we were rather remiss in our appraisal of the homeless situation here in Oasis Springs. There are a number of families that were without shelter over Mr C and mine's favourite day of the year. In our haste, I'm afraid we decided that the Shelter would not be needed and as so, we removed it (Fairy dust is such a powerful thing!!)
We were therefore hoping that you could build a new place for us to help those less fortunate than ourselves.
Here are a list of our requests.
☆ It needs to be on a rather large lot, I would guess the plot known as Arid Ridge is situated should more than meet our needs
☆ Three to four self contained apartment style spaces (which would be suitable for a family of up to 5 including the possibility of a baby)
☆ A large recreation area with entertainment present for all ages (this should also be able to be converted into an emergency shelter)
☆ A play area outside for little ones
☆ A vegetable plot to help the families receive a balanced diet for little outlay
Room Challenge:
We would like to see your recreation room in both schemes, as a space for entertainment and it converted into an emergency shelter.
You have an unlimited budget for this area.
Sim Challenge:
We would like to see how the less fortunate of Oasis Springs take to their new shelter.
Oh yes, Mr C and I are going to fund this build, so spend as much as you feel you have to!!
Happy New Year to you!
Mrs C
Finally you find your voice. "Rose is never going to believe me!" You say out loud as you shake your head.
