Rags to Riches Mansion Baron Part Seventeen

Last time we visited Camila and the kitties, Camila showed off her DJ Skill at a club meeting in Windenburg, recycled some things, started making candles, and worked on her rocket. Also this is our last visit to Brindleton Bay in 2020. :O

Camila's rocket is coming along smoothly. She doesn't work on it a lot, but she's making good, steady progress. She will eventually go in space, but that won't be for a while since she still has a while to go for the Rocket Science skill.

Happy Spooky Day! Camila is talking to this lovely witch and she was reminded she needs to get in costume before handing candy out to other Sims.

Much better! She looks great! Even Chester is liking her look.

Camila is doing what she does best and that's painting. She left a bowl of candy on the porch and went upstairs to make her next masterpiece.


Kitty and Lilly were sharing a sweet mother/daughter moment in the kitchen. The cats are so cute in this game.


A few minutes later Lilly was sick! Oh no! That's not a great look for her.

But don't worry! Camila is here to help! Unfortunately she can't take care of the NPC cats that pop up sick, but she can take care of her four girls.

I forget what Lilly had, but she's feeling much better now! All thanks to Camila and her increasing Veterinary Skill! 

Aww, Mayor Whiskers decided to take a nap on the living room floor. He's such a cute cat. Has anyone ever tried to adopt Mayor Whiskers? Did it go well?

Annika and Alexander came over to hang out with Camila. They love coming over and spending time with Camila and the kitties. Fortunately neither one is allergic to cats.

That night Camila was invited to a Partyhaus gathering in Windenburg. Camila never says no to a chance to hang out with her friends.

The following afternoon Annika asked Camila on a date. For whatever reason there was no progress/award bar. 

Camila tried using a pickup line but apparently Annika wasn't having it. To make things stranger, Annika is MARRIED AND ASKED CAMILA OUT. Yes, she is married. I don't know why we haven't met her husband.

After Annika decided the date was no good (that was her fault, not ours. She asked Camila), Shadow and Kitty were sharing an interesting moment. So apparently the Free Love goes for pets too. Good to know lol

Oh no Shadow! She's now sick. She's in good hands, as we learned with Lilly.

Shadow is already feeling much better! I forget what ailed her, but she feels significantly better!

That wraps up our final visit to Brindleton Bay for 2020! I did go and renovate Camila's house a bit, so the official reveal will be the first week of January! Camila's home value as of yesterday when I played was roughly 285,000! We're getting a little closer every time we visit!

Evergreen Harbor Part Two

I'm so sorry this post is going up so late! I know it says Wednesday but I'm actually finishing this on Saturday. I had about half the post done before today. It's been a pretty busy week so I haven't had much time to write everything out.

Last time we visited Aldo and Harmony, they got makeovers and Aldo started in the Civil Designer career. Harmony also invested 1000 Simoleons into Bess' "Business Opportunity."

Aldo and Harmony are going up the ladder at the exact same time. I haven't seen this be so precise and it's a little freaky.


Since Aldo is at work, Harmony decided to harvest the wild soy plants and get some soy wax. She remembered Aldo wanting to try candle making, so she picked up the wax. She wants to get her gardening skill up as well.

She was running to find some recyclable materials and Brent Hecking was running behind her. Brindleton Bay is gorgeous anytime of year, so I'm not entirely sure why he's running here and not there.

Before Aldo gets home from work, Harmony decided to plant some more soybeans. Aldo wanted a variety of plants, but Harmony insists on soybeans. We shall see what happens.

After she planted the soybeans, she decided to go dumpster diving. She wants to see if she can find recyclable material so she can work on her Fabrication skill.

When she was done she noticed Mortimer Goth. I think it's summer but I'm not sure. Either way Mortimer seems pretty hot.

Oh no, not another Future Cube! :O Mortimer seems to be having a dilemma that only the Future Cube can help him solve.

Aldo seems a bit tired. After he got home he recycled the goods he found earlier. That will help him and Harmony work on their fabrication skills.

Harmony also recycled the goods she found in the dumpster, but right after she finished she decided to haunt it. 

Harmony found Tina Tinker outside the house. She has heard so much about Tina so she had to introduce herself. Tina seems to not care that Harmony is a ghost. That's nice because a lot of Sims are really hesitant to talk to Harmony.

Aldo is doing some yoga to relax. Work was rough today but he wouldn't say exactly why. It does get frustrating when Sims are tense every single day when they get off work.

After a relaxing yoga session, Bella Goth came over to check out the new home. She says it's not personally her style but she likes it a lot. It suits Aldo and Harmony perfectly.

Harmony decided to try making a candle with her newly acquired bits and pieces. She burned herself. It's okay Harmony, even Tina Tinker burns her hands while making candles.


After she was done making her candle, Harmony decided to paint a picture. She's feeling really creative tonight. With no need decay, she literally has all the time in the world to do whatever she wants.

Her creative evening ends with working on her Mixology skill. She loves being able to work on her skill. She does try some of her creations, but for the most part she either lets a guest (or Aldo) try them or she just practices her skills and techniques.

While Aldo was at work, Harmony decided to fertilize the soybean plants. I'm not sure he's particularly happy that she only planted soybeans, but we shall see. He does want to work on his Juice Fizzing skill, and that's a bit hard when all you have is soybeans. They don't need that much wax.

That will wrap up today's trip to Evergreen Harbor. We still have one more trip here in 2020, so be sure to be on the lookout for it! Also I am planning on wrapping the year up like I did last year. We'll revisit my goals I made last December and make goals for 2021.

Not So Berry Rose Gen Part Seventeen

 Last time we visited Oasis Springs, Scarlet and Ross woohooed, Scarlet helped Yannick with his school project, and Ross flirted with Marcus Flex. We're getting closer to handing the legacy baton to Yannick.


Fire!! Oh no!! Yannick was trying to switch the laundry when he caught fire! Fortunately he was okay. There's a shower on the other side of the mini yoga studio downstairs. 


Firefighter to the rescue! Ross came running when Yannick yelled fire! Fortunately the firefighter was able to get it out quickly. The insurance covered most of the cost to replace the dryer.


Happy Winterfest! Siobhan and Ross are enjoying some ham dinner, made by Ross. She seems to like it, while Ross feels a bit uncomfortable. I'm sure it isn't the food.

Siobhan was invited out by Candy Behr. Or maybe it was her mom Moira. Either way she's having a ton of fun dancing and bonding with her club friends.


Ross is playing with Tom while Mitchell watches TV. I guess someone in the afterlife made him angry.


After replacing the dryer, Ross wanted to do some laundry. He noticed a couple of the baskets were almost overflowing and they were starting to stink.

While he was waiting on the washer, he and Yannick decided to bond over playing chess. It helps Ross' Logic skill and it helps Yannick's Mental skill.

While everyone was at work and school, Scarlet decided to do some yoga. She's been feeling a bit tense, so she wanted to relax. It's also Power Conservation Day, so she didn't have many options for things to do. It's a bit too cold to swim, so yoga was the next best choice.

Brooklynn came over when Yannick got out of school. Technically she called Ross, but Yannick and Scarlet were the only ones home.

Siobhan got a promotion! She is now Assistant to the Manager! She's also in the Business career.

Ross was feeling flirty, so he and Siobhan went downstairs to make some steamy conversation. They didn't woohoo, but they were thinking about it.

Ross and Yannick are enjoying a nice meal of veggie burgers while Tom just stares at Ross. I think Tom is mad that Ross didn't offer him any food. Silly cat, you have food bowls all over the house!

Scarlet is feeling inspired this evening. She's been painting a lot. It's a nice way for her to unwind a bit and make some great art. I think she's currently level 2 or 3. She's still pretty new to painting, but we'll see how far she can get.

Nina is feeling a bit sad, so she turns to Ross to cheer her up. Ross has always been good at cheering Nina up or calming her down when she gets mad. Ross is a great Sim.

The next morning Ross is playing with Tom in the kitchen. Tom loves when his Sims take the time to play with him and give him pets and treats.

Yannick is being a responsible kid and is washing the dishes after he eats breakfast. Great job, Yannick! Brooklynn and Ross are teaching him well. He'll be well be on his way to being at the top of the Astronaut career!

That wraps up today's trip to Oasis Springs! Next time we'll see if Yannick becomes a teen! Ross also has to have high romance with one more Sim and he needs to kiss I think four more Sims! Then we need to work on leaving someone at the altar and eventually marrying Scarlet!
