The last time I did this my Sim had a huge garden and did not obtain any skills. My current Sim is also now level 3 handiness. It just wasn’t what I expected. I did another one where you are supposed to raise a child from infant to teenager and the scenario ended while the kid was still a child.
Move your Mods folder to the Desktop and delete localthumbcache.package. Then test the game in a new save.
If it works now check for updates to your Mods and CC. Add it back a little at a time while testing until you have found all that are broken.
Thank you for your suggestion but I have never played with mods or cc.
