A little bit of playtime before my nap.

Cravens

Craven Main House - Adam Craven, Eve Craven, Adelaide Craven, Arlene Craven, Astro Craven, Andromeda Craven, Andrew Craven

Andrew woke up with a nightmare, so played on his tablet while waiting for everyone else to get up. Adam woke up, took care of some needs and headed out to work on building his rocket ship before work. Today is Adam's Adult birthday! The teen and children headed off to school. Adam got a promotion celebration text from Baako Jang for breakfast, but Adam didn't have enough time before work.

Andrew was low on attention, so he chatted with Eve about dinosaurs. Eve got a breakfast invite from Liberty Flex, which she also declined. Too much to do around the house! Eve also got a video offer while chatting with Andrew. 24 hours to upload any video. Andrew went to play with toys and reached Imagination level 4. Eve put away the clean laundry and headed outside to get the mail. Adam headed off to work.

The mail contained Eve's plaque for finishing the fossil collection - even though she is technically missing one of the Jungle Adventures ones. Got to catch them all! It went on the back wall with the family portrait. Then it was time for Eve to deal with her bees and the garden. Eve collected her first swarm and sent them to fetch a gift while she worked on harvesting the garden. Adam got a chance card, made an arrest and quit his job as an Astronaut. When Adam got home, he updated his social media and sent a happy text to Liberty Flex. He's also back to being a one-star celebrity due to making the arrest.

Andrew was tired, so he took a nap. Adam went to produce a track, and Eve got stung by her bees when she collected the honey. She collected her second swarm and sent them off to fetch gift while she finished up in the garden. Adam went ahead and released his track, got to keep Dinky Beats happy! He then went to play on the archaeologist table. He'll get a new job after his birthday party. Eve ran around the neighborhood collecting things.

The kids came home from school. Adelaide got her Responsibility in range for the Responsible trait, and Andromeda got her grades up to an A. Adelaide headed right for the TV for some fun before Drama Club. Arlene was tense from school, so she went to journal. Astro started his homework, as did Andromeda. They both finished their homework, and Andromeda and Adelaide went off to Drama Club.

That's a good place to stop. Need my nap! Have to clean out inventories, do some work on the house and I'm sure there is more. Happy Simming!

Didn't get much of a nap, due to people waking me up, so I may take another. But first, some play time!

Craven Main House - Adam Craven, Eve Craven, Adelaide Craven, Arlene Craven, Astro Craven, Andromeda Craven, Andrew Craven

Andrew was low on attention again, so he went to chat up his father. Eve and Arlene got some food, and Astro wandered over to talk to Arlene. The birthday party reminder popped up, so Eve set about making a chocolate cake for Adam. Astro earned a Scout Badge and also reached Social level 5 while talking to Arlene. After talking to Adam for a bit, Andrew headed to his Wabbit Tablet to learn some skills and Adam headed for the observatory.

I cleaned out some of their inventory - Eve has a LOT of herbs in her pocket! Then it was time for the birthday party, and while Eve baked the cake, everyone changed into their partywear.

And now I'm going to try to rest. Happy Simming!

So I started a legacy - the Ultimate Sim Legacy. With aging off, each sim has to accomplish everything possible before they can age up, except babies, which are aged up immediately. All skills, traits (if possible), aspirations, collections (as a family) and whatever else I can think up. I'm starting with teen Danielle Steele in Oasis Springs. She has a lot to do!

Part of the challenge is that you can only work on ONE aspiration at a time. No flip-flopping. Danielle's atm is Bestselling Author.

Steele Main House - Danielle Steele

Danielle moved into the Agave Abode in Oasis Springs. The first thing she did was read a book, as she is a bookworm. She also used most of her remaining funds to buy a laptop. Johnny Zest showed up in the welcome wagon, so Danielle got to know him. She started the Charisma skill while talking to him. Danielle looked for a pen pal, then resumed her conversation with Johnny. While talking to Johnny, she started chatting on the laptop - though no one knows who she is chatting with! Then she started to practice writing, which was one of her whims. In doing so, she started the Writing skill. Conversing with Johnny, she also started the Comedy skill.

Johnny left at the close of the welcome wagon event, and Danielle wanted to go to the museum. She went alone to The Future's Past. She mostly ran around on free will. She asked Judith Ward for an autograph. Danielle asked twice, but no luck. She introduced herself to Nancy Landgraab and they chatted for a bit. Nancy left, and Danielle introduced herself to Summer Holiday...and ended up in a group chat for a bit. Her needs started to drop, so it was time to go home.

When she got home, Danielle addressed her needs and called Nancy for a brief chat. Then she started her homework. She dipped into her funds to buy herself a journal. Danielle finished her homework, then went into the kitchen to cook something to eat. Naturally, this started her on the Cooking skill. After eating her Vegetable Dumplings, she started working on a children's book. She needs money ASAP, and as a Babysitter, she only works on weekends. Danielle reached Writing level 2. She finished her children's book, claimed her bed and went to sleep.

And on that note, I need some sleep! Up way too late, and may have to get up way too early.

While I'm waiting for some votes on my poll...

Danielle woke up and started another children's book before school. She finished the book, completed a milestone of Bestselling Author and headed out to school. She came home embarrassed, and with a school project. Off she went to journal about her feelings. When she was done, she self-published the normal book that she had written. She needs some money coming in, especially since she had to dip into her savings again to buy another chair. She cleaned up a bit, then headed out to the Humor and Hijinks festival. She went by herself, hoping to meet more people.

It was raining in San Myshuno. Great. Danielle asked Brytani Cho for an autograph. She was turned down the first time, but Brytani accepted the second time. She joined the Jokesters, naturally. After drinking her Light tea, she made a funny introduction of herself with Penny Pizzazz. They chatted for a bit, cracking jokes now and again. Then Penny left, and Danielle introduced herself to Morgan Fyres. Danielle did an impression for Morgan and reached Comedy level 2. Morgan left, and Danielle took a moment while the Jokesters were up to use the bathroom. Then she ordered some food to fill her belly. She ordered Brochette and learned the recipe.

She gave a funny introduction to Ulrike Faust, and the Jokesters won! She definitely needed that $500. Her and Ulrike chatted for a bit as the fireworks went off. Ulrike pranked Danielle with the hand buzzer trick, and after that, it was time for Danielle to head home. Once home, she changed into dry clothes and started her homework. She also immediately sold the fireworks from the festival. After finishing her homework, she collected from a couple of plants near her house, then started on her school project. She started the Gardening skill from collecting the plants. There really isn't any room for much of a garden here. Danielle also got a text from Vlad, and he showed up while she was collecting from the plants. She started the Logic skill from her school project. She dipped into her savings to buy a coffeemaker. She's going to need it! She reached Logic level 2 and took a quick break to play Sims Forever as her fun was getting low. She acquired the Video Gaming skill.

And that's a good place to stop. Need to rest before running people to appointments.

Done running people around, and now it's time to play! Waiting for the results of the poll.

Danielle continued to play Sims Forever. She got her fun up and went back to working on her school project. She didn't get it finished before it was time for school. She got some free earbuds while she was in school. Her very first royalty report came in at a whopping $3. Danielle came home from school and took care of her needs. She reached Cooking level 2 making herself a garden salad. She picked up around the house and then started on her homework. Danielle finished her homework, then headed to bed as her energy was fully in the red. As she was sleeping, Vlad showed up and drained her dry - she was very tasty to him. He left her passed out on the floor, as he does.

When she got up from her highly uncomfortable position, she headed to the bathroom then went to work on her school project - all by herself! She made some progress, realized her fun was getting low again and headed to the laptop to play Sims Forever. Then it was back to the school project. She finished it and still had time for a nap before school. Waking up, she still had some time, so she relaxed and read a book. Then it was off to school for the day. Today her royalty report was $4. She got her grades up to a B. She started her homework as soon as she got home.

Nancy Landgraab was passing by, so Danielle chatted with her while doing her homework. Nancy left, and after awhile Danielle finished her homework. She decided she had some room for a couple of plants. She dipped into her savings to buy a couple of pots. She planted sage in one, and strawberry in the other. The strawberry decided it didn't like the pot, so she planted it into the ground and sold the pot. She also sold her school project now that she's gotten credit for it. She was still uncomfortable from Vlad's visit, so she wrote in her journal for a bit. Afterward, even though she was tired, she went out to volunteer at a bake sale. Thanks to a chance card, she got some Responsibility and reached Logic level 3 at the bake sale. Danielle came home and went to bed. Hopefully, Vlad won't show up again and ruin her sleep.

No Vlad and that moodlet is finally gone. Danielle woke up, went to the bathroom and made herself a fruit salad for breakfast. Then it was time to once again head out to school. Unfortunately, her fun was in the toilet very quickly. And she decided to make herself even more tense with a mood swing! As soon as she got home, she hit the journal. After journaling, she settled in front of the laptop to get her fun up by playing Sims Forever. She reached Video Gaming level 2, then shouted some forbidden words. Wonder what was going on in her game?!

After getting her fun up, she went to try to calm down in the mirror. Fortunately, that finished off the mood swing. She then wanted to head off on a jog, so off she went! Naturally, that started her on the Fitness skill. She had a good workout and went in to take a shower. She got an invite to the Narwhal Arms from Nancy, so off she went. When she got there, she wanted to do some push-ups, so push-ups it was. She then watched the DJ for a few moments (the DJ left), then went to the bar to get some chips. She stretched a couple of times, then went to introduce herself to Clara. They chatted for a bit. After talking with Clara, Danielle went to check on Nancy. They chatted for a bit. Then it was back to watching the DJ. Danielle acquired the DJ Mixing skill. Then it was time to head home. Once home, she sent an energized text to Johnny, then headed to bed. At some point at the Narwhal Arms, she made friends with Nancy.

She got up just in time to head off to school. She came home with her fun low, but her Responsibility in range for the Responsible trait. Not sure how her fun could be low, but off to the laptop! She played some Sims Forever. After getting her fun back up, she started on another children's book. She reached Writing level 3. Ulrike called to go to a talent show at the lounge, but the "lounge" was a residence, so Danielle didn't go. She finished the book, it came out normal, so she self-published it. Then it was homework time. Danielle finished her homework, then headed to the bathroom for a shower. Then she tried her hand at cooking some fish tacos for dinner. She managed not to burn the place down. She ate, cleaned up and then started writing short stories. She finished that, so she analyzed a book she had in her inventory.

She put the book away in the bookcase, then decided it was a good time for a rebellious phase. Too bad she doesn't have parents! After her mini freak out, it was time to check her garden, or the two plants she was calling a garden. The strawberries were ready to harvest, but that was all that was needed. Then it was back to the laptop to start another short story book. She finished that one, and it was just normal, so she self-published it. I also caught Lilith Valtore running up to her house. Then Lilith did a u-turn and walked away. Danielle sent off her book, which got her nominated for an Accolade. Too bad she's at work till midnight on Sundays. Caleb Valtore also ran up to her house, only to do the same thing Lilith did. Strangeness. Danielle had a whim to learn about vampires, so she headed to the laptop to take care of that. That got her started on the Vampire Lore skill. She reached level 2 of the Vampire Lore skill. Since she was still decent on energy and didn't have school, she started writing a children's book. She does have an aspiration to complete, after all.

She finished another normal children's book, so off to the mailbox she went. Since she was outside, and it was almost 7 am, she checked on her garden. They were both ready to harvest, and her strawberries needed some water. Then she checked for pen pal replies and chatted with Johnny online. Her pen pal is from Littlehaven, and she and Johnny became friends while chatting. Then it was time to force Danielle to get some rest - can't have her exhausted at work! Little lives depend on her. And apparently, she knows it, because right after she got off the laptop to head to bed, she had a mood swing and is now all kinds of tense.

Now I'm off to hopefully do that sleep thing. Happy Simming!

Since my family woke me up...

Danielle's royalty came in at $16 this morning, she's gaining! She woke up around 2 pm, went to the bathroom and started writing in her journal, as she was still really tense from her mood swing. After journaling for a while, the mood swing was gone. She finished up, then made a BLT for lunch. Unfortunately, she was uncomfortable from her cheap bed. Got to upgrade that at some point. She ate her lunch, and it got close to the time for her to head out for work. The Romance festival was going on this evening as well, but she's going to have to miss it.

Her cheap bed moodlet disappeared just in time for it to be replaced by a poorly made food one. She'll probably end up going to work uncomfortable. She cleaned up her plate and cleaned the counter. Then it was time to head out for a night of babysitting. She brought home $198. Going to take a while to get her a new bed and a TV. She sat down at the laptop and started another children's book. She reached Writing level 4. She finished the book, then sent a happy text to Penny. Then it was time to write another short story book. When she finished with that, she started a poetry book. This time the book ended up normal, so she headed to the mailbox. It's not much money, but it all counts. Then she headed to bed, cause her schedule is so messed up.

And it's New Skill Day! She headed to the mirror to practice her speech, as she felt she needed some more Charisma. She reached Charisma level 2 and completed Skill Day. Then she headed back to the laptop, this time to write a motivational book, as she was confident. She finished the book, got her $23 royalty for the day, and got invited to the Flea Market by Johnny. When they got there, Danielle showed Johnny her muscles, then they chatted for a bit while waiting for the market to officially start. There wasn't anything particularly interesting at the Flea Market, but she had to haggle. So she haggled with a food vendor since she was hungry. It didn't work, but she bought food anyway since her haggle fail counted. She actually got embarrassed by her fail. Though she did learn how to make Samosa. Then she wrote in her journal in the middle of the Flea Market. Then she watched Thorne Bailey perform. She added to her Simstagram story, getting 12 followers. They were her first, and so far, only. Then she played a game on her phone to boost her fun a bit. She asked Johnny about his career and chatted with the nearly frozen Johnny for a bit. It was almost at the end of the event, and she decided to tip Thorne $10. She played another game on her phone, then headed home.

When she got home, she sent a happy text to Johnny in thanks and checked in on her garden. They were both ready to harvest, her strawberry plant was ready to be evolved, but she can't yet, and her sage needed some water. She then headed for the bathroom, then played some Sims Forever to get her fun up before work. She reached Video Gaming level 3, and then it was time for work. Danielle came home with a promotion to Nanny. She bought a Gardening book to celebrate, then went inside to read it. Gotta get that strawberry evolved! She reached Gardening level 2. The strawberry got evolved to nice. She put the Gardening book away and headed to bed.

She paid her first bill of $38 while she was sleeping. Thank goodness for MCCC! She woke up and grabbed a quick meal from the fridge. After eating her applesauce, she cleaned up her bowl then hopped into the shower. Then it was time for school. She brought Morgan home with her from school, as well as another school project. They chatted for a bit, but Morgan was bored, so she took off for a jog. Danielle harvested her plants, then started her homework. Morgan came back from her jog and chatted with Danielle for a bit as Danielle did her homework.

And now I'm going to try for some more sleep. Wish me luck! Happy Simming!

Need to take a nap, but wanted to play for a few minutes at least.

Danielle and Morgan continued to chat as Danielle worked on her homework until Morgan decided to play on her phone for a bit. That apparently didn't entertain Morgan, cause she was still bored and started chatting with Danielle again. They chatted until Morgan left. Danielle finished her homework shortly thereafter, then hit the bathroom. Then it was time to start working on her school project. She started the Handiness skill with this project. Nancy texted about a crazy party at the Chalet, so Danielle decided to go.

They arrived at the Chalet, and Danielle discovered that Nancy was pregnant! They chatted for a bit after Danielle complimented Nancy's outfit. Then it was off to the party! Danielle acquired the Dancing skill. After dancing for a bit, she grabbed some chips from the bar. After eating the chips, she called Johnny for a few. Danielle and Johnny became good friends during the phone conversation. Nancy asked Octavia Bailey for an autograph, which Octavia accepted. Then Nancy asked for a drink at the bar. Danielle, being the good friend that she is, stole Nancy's drink. Nancy shouldn't be drinking while pregnant!

Danielle asked Octavia Bailey for an autograph, which Octavia turned down the first time Danielle asked. Then she asked Dustin Broke for one, and he accepted first try! Danielle introduced herself to Moira Fyres and they chatted for a bit. Then Danielle headed home so she could get some sleep for school. When she got home, she checked on her plants, then headed to bed. She woke up a little after 6 am and started working on her school project for a bit before school.

And that's where I'm going to stop, as I've been playing for about 30 minutes and I need rest! Happy Simming!

Didn't get my nap, as another errand cropped up. Now it's back to play time!

Danielle worked on her school project until it was time to head to school. While she was at school, she got her royalty of $26 and a notification that GeekCon was in town. Danielle came home with an A and was tense thanks to school. She ranted about stress in her journal. After that, she made herself a garden salad. She reached Cooking level 3. She ate, cleaned up her bowl, then read her Gardening book to get her fun back up. She hit the bathroom, put her book away, got tense again, and wrote a letter to her pen pal. Nancy called to see if Danielle wanted to hang out at her place, but Danielle has quite a bit to do so declined. She went to go try to calm herself down in the mirror and it worked!

She started her homework. After homework, she went back to her school project. She reached Handiness level 2. She finished her project and headed to bed. Turned on aging for unplayed sims to allow some babies to grow up. Danielle woke up and headed off to school. She only got $24 today in her royalty report. Nancy invited her to the lounge that isn't a lounge while she was at school, and naturally, she declined. She invited Morgan home with her. First, she checked her plants, she had forgotten about them yesterday after all. Both plants were ready to harvest, both had weeds and her strawberries needed to be watered. Morgan chatted with her while she took care of them. Danielle headed for the shower afterward. Then it was homework time after she sold her school project.

Morgan came over to play on Danielle's laptop, and they chatted. Then Morgan decided to read a book, which ended the conversation. Danielle completed her homework, then jumped on the laptop to write a poetry book. Morgan took off, leaving Danielle alone again. She reached Writing level 5 shortly thereafter. She finished the book, then made herself a grilled cheese for dinner. She sent a happy text to Summer while she was eating. Nancy invited her out to Ghost Night at the bar, so they made their way there.

They arrived at the Old Quarter Inn, and Danielle tried to help Nancy improve her relationship with Baako. Nancy said she would talk to him, so success? They chatted for a bit while waiting for the ghosts to show up. She even gave Nancy some repair tips! Danielle hit the bathroom, then she went back downstairs to play foosball with Nancy. That took them to the end of the event, but the game continued. Danielle and Nancy became good friends while playing. Finally, the game was over, with Nancy winning 5-3. Danielle headed home.

When she got home, she sold all her books to a publisher. That will get her higher royalties now that she has unlocked the option. She became a one-star celebrity in the process. Due to money being an issue, she took the Corporate Partnership perk. She added to her Simstagram story to commemorate the moment, then headed to bed. She now has 24 followers. She woke up in the morning and headed directly off to school. She's going to have to find some room for the video station. Her royalty statement today was $394! Danielle came home from school in a mood swing and was very tense as a result. So she ranted about stress in her journal. Of course, she had to clean up the table first since she neglected to do it last night.

Nancy was Danielle's celebrity crybaby and showed up unannounced. Danielle didn't mind too much, as it gave her another try at resolving Nancy's bad relationship with Baako. They chatted for a bit, with Danielle finding out that Nancy was a Minor Criminal at Mobwives. Danielle tried to discuss Nancy's bored mood, but Nancy cut off the conversation abruptly. Danielle cleaned up her kitchen, then made herself some pan-fried tilapia for dinner. Let's hope she doesn't burn the house down. Well, she managed not to, but the tilapia came out poor. Nancy let herself out while Danielle was eating. After eating, Danielle went to the mirror to try to calm down. After finally getting rid of her very tense mood, Danielle cleaned up her plate and then started her homework.

After finishing her homework, she went outside to check on her plants. The strawberries were ready to harvest, and her sage was too, though it needed a drink of water as well. Since it was still early, she headed out to volunteer at the soup kitchen. She got some Responsibility for adding extra ingredients and came home with a good reputation. She added to her Simstagram story, netting her another 12 followers, for 36 total. Then she sent a happy text to Nancy. Then she went to the bathroom, washing her hands twice. Not sure what that was all about. She then headed to bed to get some sleep for school.

She woke up with a fair bit of time before school, so she started writing a non-fiction book. Soon it was time to go, so off she went. While at school, she got a message from Nancy that they were working on their relationship. So that's cool. She also got a partnership offer, she could record any video or a beauty review. Now she really needs that video station! Her royalties came to $390. She sold the dresser in the spare room and put the video station in its spot. And she comes home embarrassed, so off to journal she goes. After writing in her journal, it was time to make her first video! Beauty Product Reviews. She definitely did NOT find doing a video fun, that's for sure. Her fun tanked. But the Spice Festival is in town, maybe she can go when she's done. It is Friday night, after all.

Nancy invited her to the Spice Festival for some t-shirts, but Danielle couldn't leave yet. Can't make her do the video twice! She'll pick Nancy up on the way. Moira invited her to a talent showcase, but those are pretty broken right now. Besides, she is still working on her video. Finally, she finished and decided to take Nancy and Johnny, her two friends, with her. When they all got there, Danielle pulled Nancy aside to check up on how the relationship with Baako was going. It was once again raining in San Mushyno, but no one seemed to mind. Nancy and Danielle continued to chat in the rain until the Spice Festival kicked off. Danielle was slightly excited to see Brytani Cho there. Nancy shared some details of her career with Danielle. Should I be worried?

Danielle harvested some of the parsley and mushrooms that the Spice Festival had. Then she saw Clara on the bubble blower, so wandered over to try it. After trying it a couple of times, she decided it wasn't for her, and wandered over to where the food was. She grabbed a serving of sweet and sour pork. Eating her sweet and sour pork, she started to learn how to use chopsticks. Nancy decided to let Danielle know via phone that it was Ladies Night at the Old Quarter Inn. While they're at the Spice Festival. Danielle declined, shaking her head over Nancy's antics. She then introduced herself to Dominic Fyres, since she knew most of his family already. Johnny decided to try the curry - it seemed to go well. Danielle learned the recipe for sweet and sour pork. Danielle and Dominic chatted for a bit, then she ran around collecting some posters. She changed out of her very wet clothing and decided to play some basketball. She practiced dribbling for a bit, then started making some close shots just as the 1-hour closing warning appeared. She didn't have much fun shooting close shots, so home she went.

When she got home, she harvested her plants. She then went inside to edit the video she had made earlier. The Valtores really like her porch for some reason, they keep coming up on it, turning around and leaving. Maybe they're trying to bite her? She started on the Media Production skill. She finished editing, and uploaded the video - she got $150 for it, plus royalties. She then replied to comments and in doing so, gained 150 followers. She now has 186 total. She had to ignore her low fun for now, as it was getting really late, so she headed to bed.

And that's where I'm going to stop for now. I am exhausted and have quite a headache. If I can't sleep, I'll be back. Happy Simming!

Steele Main House -

Some babies aged up, so aging was turned back off again. Danielle woke up and headed for the bathroom. She watered her strawberry plant and then read her Gardening book. Then she took a shower. A happy text to Nancy, then she headed to finish her book. Her royalty report was $509. She finished a milestone in Bestselling Author. She finished her book, then called Summer Holiday. She published her book, then created herself a social media profile. She updated her status too, to let her followers know about her new book. She now has 206 followers. She also received an invite from Morgan to join Renegades, which she declined. Not really the club for her. She headed out to Desert Bloom park.

As soon as she arrived, she headed to the pond to fish and started on the fishing skill. She's had a whim to cook fried fish for a while now. She actually caught something with her first cast, but it wasn't a fish - it was a box that held a kitchen upgrade part. Her first fish was a minnow, which will be useful later. She reached Fishing level 2. She finally caught a Perch, then headed home as she was hungry. Plus it was getting close to her work hours.

When she got home, it was time to fry some fish! She ate a plate, then put away the leftovers. She cleaned up her plate and still had some time before work so she went outside to tend to her garden. She really wanted to plant something else, so she bought a packet of vegetable seeds. The packet netted her some carrots and green peas. She got everything planted and reached Gardening level 3. Then it was time to head off to work. She brought home $240 and finished tending to her garden. She went inside and started her homework since she hadn't done it yet.

She finished her homework and headed to bed. The morning brought with it another Skill Day. Danielle woke up, hit the bathroom, then made herself some eggs and toast for breakfast. Her royalty came to $552 today. She's getting there! Of course, she decided to spend most of her money on a TV, so she has a lot more to do. She ate, then replied to comments on her video. She gained 175 followers, making her new total 381. She cleaned up her plate, then worked out to a Plumboomba dance video. She reached Fitness level 2 and completed Skill Day. She hurt her back at one point during the video, and that just sounded like it hurt.

She finished her workout video and started writing a motivational book. She finished the book, then watched a bit of the World Culture channel. She published her book, then went to tend her garden. She harvested what needed to be harvested, sprayed her strawberry plant for bugs then sat down to read a book. Nancy decided to show up, which interrupted Danielle's book reading. Danielle invited her in, and they chatted. Danielle got her one-hour warning, so asked Nancy to leave. She sent a happy text to Summer, then headed out to work. She came home with $432 and a promotion to Daycare Assistant. That also means that she has topped Babysitter! Time for a new job. Next on the list was Barista, so she is now a Coffee Stain Remover. At least she'll be able to go to the Accolades now. She started a non-fiction book. Her laptop broke, so she had to fix it. She reached Handiness level 3. She got 2 common upgrade parts and one plumbing part. She cleaned up the mess and took the trash out. Then she headed to bed to rest up for school. She also had a great Skill Day.

Going to stop for a while and try to rest. Being up at 3:45 am is not very usual for me, and it's now after 6:30 am!
