This was an early build for the full save file, and I really liked the way it turned out. It uses only Eco, Tiny Living, and Base Game, so it's super easy to fit into any game save. It's a two bedroom one bath home, with all the living areas downstairs, and the cutest little kitchen ever. Enjoy!

When Sims 2 came out, I was more than ready for it. I ditched Sims 1 without barely a look back, and was immediately in love with Sims 2. Someday, I want to get it re-installed on my computer, and mess around with my favorite town, Strangetown, some more. I wasn't really into building back then, nor did I make my own characters very often, but man did the storylines behind Strangetown and Pleasantville pulled me in and I spent so much time playing the sims that came with those towns. I still have all of the original discs from all of the expansions for Sims 2 (and somehow I missed getting the Ultimate Edition).. so I'd need to literally get those discs to work on my PC to re-install it. Last time I tried, I ran into some disc errors, and lost my patience, so I never finished it... hence why this game is NOT on the list of games I will be playing this year. It did still need to be mentioned, though.

I finally got around to buying a television. Granted, it was because work was requiring me to watch some for research, but still, I bought a TV.

Work seems to take up so much of my time. I try to do as much from home as possible, but trips to the city on the bus were time-consuming and necessary. I hated leaving poor Charlie in daycare, but progressing in my career was definitely a priority for me. Things were going really well on that front, at least. Promotions were coming regularly, and so were the raises - which really helped, because I knew I was going to need to upgrade the house eventually. Charlie wasn't going to remain tiny forever.
