Prompt #3:  Could you be happy here, with me?

The house was tiny–miniscule, in fact, compared to the other places she’d lived–but Erin loved it the moment she walked in.  The front room was painted a dull off-white and the cream-colored carpet was worn, with a couple of faded stains.  Erin didn’t care.  She was already imagining it painted in bright colors, with some of her art hung on the walls and furniture arranged just so. 

“It’s awfully small,” Nervous said, wringing his hands in that way he had.  “Are you sure there would be enough room?”

“There are three bedrooms,” Erin said.  “We only need one right now.”

Nervous looked at the slight swell of her belly and bit his lip.  “We’ll need two in a few months.”

“Exactly!” Erin chirped.  “So that leaves one room that could be an office if we needed it to be, until we have someone else to go in it. And with this space, we’d have plenty of room for friends to come over.  I bet we could even throw a party!”

Nervous kept twisting his long pale fingers together.  “But what if--”

Erin shook her head.  “No more buts,” she said. “No more what ifs.  This is the right place for us.”

“Are you sure you could be happy here, with me?” he asked.

I had to empty out an apartment building I liked cause it got glitchy :/ it was a small building with no elevator, just stairs, but then they couldn't use the stairs!! Whenever I played Sims on the upper floor I'd have to use cheats to move them up and down the stairs, including dogs going to do their business -_-

UGH it makes me so sad that apartments in TS2 are so glitchy because I really love the concept (especially since I live in one myself!). I love the social aspect of it and how perfect it is for single Sims and couples - but then stuff like this happens and before you know it EVERYONE GETS A HOUSE because I’m fed up. :|

I LOVE it!!!! that little patio deck!!!! It's the perfect place to have friends over for drinks and so quaint aaaaaaahhhhh. I'm in love! I can't blame you for loving it so much too.

Thank you!! I based it off of a floor plan I found and it had that cute little dining patio, and I thought it’d be the perfect opportunity to use those awning pieces I’ve had floating around in my DL folder forever. ❤ My Sims seem to like it, too - the NEVER eat in their gorgeous dining room, nooooo. Always outside, no matter what the weather. :P

The pergola is fabulous. :)

Thank you! :) I’m glad it worked out. It’s one of those CC items I’ve had forever and kept telling myself “well, I might need it someday,” so I’m glad that day finally arrived. ;D

"Yes, yes, yes, I know you're being electrocuted, but dirty dishes wait for no one!"

Hahaha, I know we say it all the time, but Sim logic never fails to amuse me! :)

That always happens. All you have to do is turn on moveobjects and delete them, then they won't reappear. You have to do it when you're playing each playable household in the building. Pain in the ass, but at least it's fixable. :)

Aha! Good to know. :) I was afraid my neighborhood was becoming corrupted or one of my apartment mods was causing this nonsense. I feel much calmer and more prepared for the next time I decide to play an apartment building. ;)

Yeah, I'm pretty sure this apartment lot is cursed.

Hahah, yeeeeeaaaahh... I’m just going to let that lot sit there unoccupied for awhile until I figure out what to do with it. I don’t think I could risk sending another family to live there. :P

It looks even lovelier in autumn colors! <3

Thank you so much! ❤

dedication

I can say with certainty that he is the best landlord I’ve had in my game! :) For starters, he didn’t hang around sniffing the flowerbeds all day and harass my Sims over the phone constantly. ;) This trash compactor debacle just sealed the deal!

I guess I can’t say my neighborhood is lacking in excitement. ;) Although I must concur with you that this apartment is cursed - even for the Sims, there were just a few too many unfortunate events occurring all at once. ;D

Aw, gotta love those eye popping toddler/pet squidges.

THEY’RE THE BEST I can’t resist taking a ton of screenshots when that happens!  ❤❤ Makes me want to have pets in all my toddler households! :)
