I spent most the beginning of the year on my new obsession, knitting. 🙂 Lots of fun projects and stuff to make. Started playing sims again about the time Sims 4 was officially announced to be coming out in fall, and definitely spending a lot of time in game as soon as the actual date was released. However, I haven't been working on any of my building stuff, or my challenges.. I've been pushing myself to get as many achievements in Sims 3 as I can before 4 releases. At this moment in time, I have 60 days til release, and I have 123 achievements completed (out of 265)... which means I have 142 achieves to go (averages out to about 2.4 achieves per day.. haha!) Anyway.. so it's a lot of achieves. And most of them take a whole lot of time!! Also, been researching the issue I had with my Spectres save, and I think I figured it out, so all should be ok. I really didn't realize how far behind I was on blogging that challenge, so I think I'm going to put some time into challenge blogging to catch up on them. Also been doing quite a bit of simporting, trying to get all the stamps in there.. which takes quite a lot of time. Soo.. yeah.. I'm still here! 🙂
