I feel so behind in everything and lazy and also hungry because, as my husband just pointed out, I haven't had anything but coffee today and it's almost noon! I'm gonna go eat and then we'll get this update rolling...
Okay yum, enchiladas accomplished.
Previously! Eglantine ate about 80 grilled cheeses, married Bilbo Dork, became a vampire and was cured of that affliction, gave birth to 3 babies and adopted 3 toddlers.
Well this is just a relief, and fun!
Heirloom #1: Kitty painting for Bruce's bedroom.
A slight break means we can actually work on some toddler skills, which the legacy has really been pretty lacking in.
Lydia-Damaris and Dorcas say hello every morning in their new bedroom.
Bruce brought home a smustling teenaged Zara Graham (
blackmagesims).
Nanny got a cramp taking out the trash, evidently. As if this house hasn't had enough roaches already.
Attempts to get the fun up enough to maybe work on those piles of homework.
Heirloom #2: Screen for the bathroom they can't afford to put a bath into yet.
I don't know what you've got to be so sad about, I keep you in grilled cheeses don't I?
Maybe she's sad to see her youngest adopted daughter, Aida, growing up.
Aida is a little tomboy. <3
Everyone is out of the house but these two and toddler Georgianna. Phew! Totally relieving.
The kids are doing great!
It's quite a struggle to get everyone's fun up after school, though.
Bruce takes advantage of the gypsy caravan next door to procure a date.
Oh, nice, Titus Dorkasaur (
dorkasaur_sims)!
They got along great, probably because Bruce is so gosh-darned attractive via the genie.
Heirloom #3: The tower on the roof.
The final kid's birthday mcfinally!
Bruce brought home Buffy Longmore (
stakeit_uk).
Heirloom #4: As in every legacy that has rolled this challenge. ;)
Georgianna is shockingly gorgeous.
Bilbo added grilled cheese. ;)
Bruce spam. :)
I'm totally have heir pangs, I love all three girls ever so much.
Heirloom #5: A statue for Vladimir's room.
Bilbo & Eglantine enjoy their first day with the house to themselves. Unless you count the maid, which they clearly don't.
They also waited until the last minute and Bruce came home from school. Classy!
Dorcas celebrated her birthday.
Heirloom #6: A big rug for the entryway of the second floor.
Eglantine had a really good dream about grilled cheese and got an invite to the cuisine location.
PHEW.
There weren't enough hours in the day for eating grilled cheese, so Eglantine quit her job.
A pretty big crowd gathered to celebrate Lydia-Damaris's birthday.
Heirloom #7: A mirror for the bathroom that isn't a bathroom yet.
Bilbo brought Elementa Dork (
katu_sims) home from work, Dorks have cornered the Captain Hero market, I see.
Vladimir's birthday.
This evidently reminded me to check Dorcas' lifetime want.
Mmm. I repeat: There just aren't enough hours in the day for grilled cheese enjoyment.
But we can try. (She is just so freaking pretty with the light of cheese in her eyes. <3)
Aida's birthday! :D
Oh no!
Oh no! Cos it's winter! :0
I sent everyone outside to play while I locked up the house. (brain addled brain didn't get a border on this one.)
Ah yes, the moment when they realized they were locked out.
And the fury as the maid refused to let them in with her key. The daily fury!
Olaf Krogstad (
pinkposeysims) came by to give them nordic advice on staying alive in the cold.
They immediately took his advice and woohooed.
It didn't help.
I set the kids to the task of doing their homework on the slightly sheltered porch.
Soon they were all blue so I sent them a-walking to a community lot with hot tubs in an attempt to get them a good start to this challenge.
It's a family outing!
It really hardly helped.
And service was terrible at the bowling alley.
There are always 4 people stuck outside, and unfortunately, though I tried to give Georgianna tent priority, she didn't like anyone else in the tents well enough to share with them.
yeah.
I like how minty Lydia-Damaris looks when freezing.
Woo! School respite.
Okay. CHEATED. Sorry. Hot chocolate machine and bathtub to keep them from freezing, okay? Eglantine conjures herself some snow-covered grilled cheeses.
If we can just make it!
Georgianna and Bruce try to keep warm.
Woo! Okay. We can do this!
Bilbo's birthday too. :(
Oh but he does cut a dashing figure!
I somehow missed that Vlad & Buffy have 2 bolts.
But no toilet.
Most of their urinating happened in the snow, but after the melt, there were weeds and puddles all over.
So much homework that they're in no mood to do, plus a couple of piles that got locked in the house.
Money! We really need this.
Titus and Bruce fell in love whilst being affronted by Lydia-Damaris in the porch-bath.
Ah. Eglantine had her birthday.
Lydia-Damaris was in aspiration failure and rolled the want to make a wish, so I gave her perma-plattedness. :D
And then I realized that I got Eglantine a cell phone at some point. <.< Oops. Well. First hot meal in almost a week!
Everyone gathered around the pizza and Bruce felt herself tingle into adulthood.
She immediately started flirting with Blaze Floriano (
bondchick_nett).
Bilbo got struck by lightning in the tent, but thankfully, survived.
Aida ran into the house when I unlocked the door. What a week! And sort of failed. :(
