Day 1 - A Very Merry Makeover - The 12 Days of Simsmas

I don't play with simsself (or anyone I know irl) because it gives me weird anxiety while I'm playing, like I need everything to be perfect (which uh... This is the sims sooooo) plus I get upset when they die and turning aging off is no fun for the way I play.

So this is Freedom Oakes. I'm doing a multi generational playthru where all the ladies have first names within a theme, starting with Freedom and her twin sister Virtue, then Freedoms future daughter is Charity, who has three kids named Hope, Gloria, and Faith. I don't have anything planned beyond that lol (the only reason I have that much planned is bc this save file is a loose recreation of my last one, and I started with charity and as I got more expansion packs I made more family in both directions and this save file started with freedom and her twin as young adults living on their parents ranch. If anyone's at all interested I'll make a separate post about the family lore and the wacko way I branched the family off from charity as the starting point).

Freedom's at uni, and im trying to minimize cheats unless they're necessary for storytelling (she's making way too much money selling art for "broke uni kid who's the first in her family to be able to go" make sense so I gotta zap her money away all the time hahaha) or to fix something glitchy. Luckily tho, the reno I did to darkwing house to look more like what I expected the prestigious university to look like is already a tiny bit Christmassy (if anyone wants I'll make a post of a little tour, it's like the only reno im actually proud of LOL)

The picture quality isn't great bc I'm on console and the process to get screenshots from the Xbox to my phone is a pain (take SS, download Xbox app, go thru 3625284 windows to get to my screenshots, download) I just took pictures of my TV with my phone lol!

This is the picture im going to use as my profile one.
