2. Welcome back to Arbor Watch and the first Powerpoint
chapter. Isn’t lovely, I got it for Christmas. Tell me
what you think of the new layout even if you think it
sucks, I needs the feedback.
3. I wasn’t going to do this at first, but apparently
Powerpoint 2010 lets you edit pictures in a photoshop
noob friendly way. I want to play around with a few
effects, mainly lightening up dark shots.
4. Day one starts like every good should start with a balance
breakfast. Too bad Amber decided to ruin the shot by
waving her plumbbob around. I should really start turning
those off whenever I enter a lot.
5. Soon the girls are on their way to school, and I send Amber
and Komei off to work. I must admit, on some levels the
Vegas are a little bit difficult to play. Despite having a large
number of dogs, they’re fairly easy to play and don’t have
the same sense of chaos the others houses have right now.
6. Again with the plumbbob waving, girf. I love the
bookstore, it’s almost self sufficient now. Eventually I
want to expand it so it has the same cozy feel that Barnes
and Nobles used to have before they took out all the
couches and chairs.
7. I love this shot, a rare look at the store at night.
8. Once home, Amber lays down for a nap while Komei
chows down on some leftovers. They always end up
with a ton of extra food. I’m not sure why I even bother
making them cook.
9. The only thing I hate about the girls going to school is they
come with their fun bars tanked. Poor kids barely have
time to get it enough to do their homework before it’s
thing for them to go to bed.
10. Some puppy spam because they’re
adorable. I can’t wait to see them
grow up this chapter. Isn’t Strength
cute, I want Bane’s grandpups to be
born already.
11. Abby starts learning her father’s trade. She’s going to take
over the clothing store for sure. Though I almost want to
move it because the layout is barely functional.
12. Poor Abby also spends a lot of her little free time in front of
the mirror. She wants to get to the top of the
entertainment career and needs to max her charisma
before adulthood.
13. And because I feel the girls will benefit more from a
hands on life, Sammie is stuck cleaning random
things like sinks.
14. BANE! Arbor Watch’s first haunting. I'm sorry Bane,
but pet ghost are still a little too freaky for me.
15. Frammit, Amber, it’s two in the morning go to sleep, you
too Komei. The bed isn’t even awesome enough for you
guys to have an excuse. I swear these two pop out of bed
the second their energy bars are full.
16. At least I can get something productive out of them.
18. Komei finally got a gold badge in sewing, woot! Too bad I
don’t really like the custom outfits very much, I feel that
Eaxis should of tried harder there.
19. With the gold badge and a couple outfits in tow it’s off to
the store! I caught Komei looking out the window! I
almost never catch these shots in time.
20. Oh cool, Arbor Watch has it’s first custom genetic townie,
Payton something or another, who wants to be everyone’s
best friend. He’s sporting some eyes that I recently
learned to genetize, I think they’re Helaene’s. I don’t know,
I’m a sucker for eyes and my downloads is full of them.
21. Store spam, looks like Payton is a
reviewer person, but he left before
saying anything.
22. Amber mans the store, while Komei works
on more clothes. Poor Komei he spends
most of his time on the sewing machine.
23. Once home, Komei turns in for a nap, that’s what you get
for getting up a two in the morning, jerk.
24. The girls return home and settle into their evening
activities. Abby is taking absolutely forever with
maxing charisma, I wonder if she’s going to be to
pull it off.
25. To feel like less of a slave driver, I gave Abby a break and
let her talk to the boys she’s being bringing home fore
school for her sister to hit on.
26. Amber and Komei go to bed early, leaving their daughters
the their own devices. Despite being mundane, I do love
these girls, the Vegas are definitely high up on my favorites
list.
27. On Day Three I was messing around in the sims folders
and ended up having to do a system restore which
reset the motives of everybody and did this. Can’t
complain too much I almost lost everything.
28. Of course being up at three in the morning, means puppy
play time!
30. I want them to grow up already, but I have to wait until
day four.
31. Komei gives Angie a raise at the bookstore. I have to make
a note to grow her up at some point.
32. At the end of the day Amber and Komei are exhausted.
Sometimes the space/time wobble between community
lots and home lots is annoying. Because if they leave now,
they’re going home tired and will sleep all day.
33. Though nothing a quick dream date and an energizer
can’t fix. I’ll try not to become too addicted to those
things.
34. Since they didn’t finish their date until almost one in the
morning. I went ahead and sent them to Komei’s Klothes.
35. Needless to say they earned a little bit of money and I
decided to let the townies keep their maxis clothes. IDK,
for some strange reason I don’t feel the urge to
makeover all the townies with CC. Call me an odd duck.
46. Sammie finished her painting, it’s so pretty. And
she got invited to My Muse….I think I might have a
plan for Sammie when she moves out in rotation
nine.
47. It’s Saturday so time for the girls to learn how to manage
the business. Mainly Abby since she’s taking over things
after her parents.
48. With both of them at the register things don’t go too badly.
49. Abby also goes to More than Food to pick up a birthday
cake. Though I don’t why she went in her pjs.
51. I almost want to say something about the shorts,
but they’re so Komei. I would keep them, but I
doubt I could stare at them for any length of time.
52. Of course Amber is taking the whole thing in stride. At
least she doesn’t look like a cougar anymore.
53. It’s finally day five. And that means Reno Day! Of course
Komei is up at the earliest possible and already plugging
away at sewing.
54. Abby’s up early too, and plays
around a bit before working on her
charisma.
55. First things first Komei needs a makeover. I’m going miss
his long hair, but I think this turned out better.
56. Since the house needs some serious remodeling I need
everybody off the lot. That means Abby gets to collect
bugs in the rain until she can go hiking. Now of course I
could’ve just sent everyone to a lot and made them come
right back. Oh well.
57. I expanded the living room and
remodel the second bathroom.
The whole house is yellow, I
needed something a little
different. I think it turn out nicely.
I forgot to take a picture of the
rearranged old living room. Oh
well. And of course the game was
being stubborn and wouldn’t let
me fix the ceiling.
58. I guess you can kind of see what I have done from this
pic. I don’t think Amber likes her new living room very
much. She thinks TV will rot the girls brains.
