And she’s back!

Addy returns for more adventuring fun! This time she travels to Ravenwood for the 1st time and then again and again because as many of you already know, catching the well-hidden Death Frog is truly a test of perseverance and patience!! She’s also given a quest, which is rather interesting.

Interested in reading more? Then by all means, head over to Year 1, Spring entry no. 2 and as always …

Happy Reading!

Hello, friends!

My goodness! It really has been some time since I had the energy or inclination to work on SimLit. The BIG C is no joke, folks. Not going to rehash it again as there is no need to. Those of you who have experienced cancer personally … be it yourself or a loved one know what I’m talking about.

Anyway, the last few in-game events have been fun and got me thinking about taking the various collections and doing something with them. I have also been sifting through game saves and deleting those I no longer play or gift builds already uploaded to the Gallery. 114 saves were deleted !! Still more to do. Whew. ** wipes brow/forehead dramatically**

Addy Sims is fun to play and has 8 collections of the 46 done as I haven’t purchased the newest pack yet. Her “adventures” won’t be a story with set publication dates but snippets here & there of interesting things. There will also be an ongoing Aspirations Tracker and Collection Tracker to show any progress made. No need to comment on the Tracker pages themselves but you’re more than welcome to leave comments or questions on Year 1, Spring and there is a handy dandy Table of Contents page titled Addy’s Adventures located in Stories (found on the menu tab at the top, under the site header) in case anybody wishes to peruse a page again.

Happy Reading!

Back at the Keyboard Again

In mid-December I felt ready to attempt playing Sims 4 again. Picking a beginner Scenario, I rediscovered the joy in the game while reminding myself of how to play. It’s funny how much I forgot and had to pause while doing a quick Google search but then the memory started kicking in and I felt less like a newbie.

To reduce the risk of unfinished business, I’ve decided to post once I have a completed story and all of the chapters are patiently waiting behind-the-scenes.

If you click on Stories (the middle item on the menu bar at the top of this page), there is a new line item called Scenarios which explains the method to my madness 😆 Essentially, I’ve decided to cobble Scenarios together to create my own “world”.

The journey begins with Farrah Nouvel in New in Town. To read about her first day, please click HERE.

Happy New Year! Welcome, 2024!

2023 was a doozy of year and while the experience is one I’d rather not repeat, cancer taught me a few things about myself. Cancer is not all that I am nor is it my ending point. I made it through five months of intense chemotherapy, followed by one month of radiation, and took it in stride.

A positive attitude and finding things to laugh about made the multitude of doctor visits, tests, and procedures go as smoothly as possible. I’m almost done with the third month of hormone blocker therapy (one med will be administered for two years and the other, for five years) and dealing with less side effects but still a bit bothersome in their own way.

I’m grateful the chemo brain fog has lifted and am slowly working on re-building my stamina. It’s been quite the journey and I couldn’t have done it without my support team who have been there every step of the way. My husband and daughter deserve awards for being there through thick and thin!

May 2024, the year of the Dragon, be a year of small changes leading to bigger ones as we let go of the old and ring in the new.

XOXO,

Addy
