yes I did painstakingly go through all the links I could find on my page and change them

i've not posted here in over a year and it's also been a long ass time since I actually played/posted sims and stuck with it.

so i'm sure you'll be pleased to know that i've actually been playing and actually enjoying sims for honestly the first time in a hell of a long time.

i'm currently on gen 5 of a family that i'm playing LEPacy style and hopefully will get around to posting at some point. i've found in the past that I get so hyperfixated on playing or posting, but never both at the same time. so I feel that if I do all the playing (or at least a lot of it) before doing the fixation on posting, then we might actually get somewhere!

fingers crossed this sims motivation continues and i'll be able to actually post again (because it's something I loved doing).

hope u cool cats are having a great time whatever it is you're doing.

me: I'm gonna go find and download new defaults as mine are very out of date and the original creator hasn't been around for a few years!

so here I am now in february 2023. i'm 29 (hitting the big 3-0 later this year, yikes!). i've now been living in my own flat by myself for the last 10 months and i've just celebrated my one year anniversary with my wonderful boyfriend! I managed to move jobs to a place much closer to where I live (I was doing a 2-hour commute each way to work every day and it was just...exhausting. adding on to the fact I have M.E., it was just making me more and more unwell, and I was getting to a point where I was concerned I wasn't going to actually be able to hold down a full-time job anymore because my health was getting so bad.)

anyway! this lil update was just to say, I've started playing the decades challenge (following @cutecoffeegal's rules) and it's making me love playing again. i'm gonna try posting some of the photos i've taken in game over the next few days (there will be minimal storytelling because my creative juices are also minimal lol)

so for anyone that’s been around with my blog and my intermittent usage of it, you may remember I began the Luck LEPacy back in Novemeber 2017 (yowch).

I played through ALL TWELVE generations of it before even posting, as I often seem to lose motivation for playing once I start posting (who knows why). However, I got up to about gen 9 posting and just....stopped. I still have all the photos, and was planning on rekindling them to finally get around to posting the last few generations of the legacy, but 

I can’t remember anyone’s names

I have no idea where I saved information about the different sims (i.e. names, traits etc)

It really would be a lot of effort and require energy I probably don’t have

so on this sad note, I am going to officially retire the Luck LEPacy to my “old saves” page (that you can still find via the directory on my blog).

Sorry to anyone that was still holding on, four years later, but I’m gonna have to put the Lucks to bed, sad that the end of their story was not told (but let’s be honest, it wasn’t really story-based anyway, it was just gameplay tbh).

Hopefully I’ll be able to stick to a save long enough to post something new here soon.

it’s been a weird and hell-ish year but tl;dr I finished my masters degree and am now working as a fully qualified speech & language therapist!!! it’s been a tough ride to get there but we got there, somehow, in amongst this shitshow of a year

ANYWAY
