I'm so sorry you're sick! I've been feeling run-down for over a week and felt like Friday I'd come down with something. Today I'm back to just feeling tired and run-down. There are nasty bugs going around, though. I hope you feel better soon.

I was thinking before I get too far into things I want to update some of the houses with Pets and Ambitions items so if I manage to do that I can upload some of the updated houses for you. Twallan's been working on a FAQ for Story Progression and I was reading that yesterday while waiting on the 850-meg updates to download. He has that thing set so that Sims with the right Ambitions jobs will move into the houses with those objects to use them. There's one Sim in the town that is a "dog person" so I'd love to give her stuff and let her have a dog. She was absolutely NOT impressed that Skye likes ALL animals.

I also have not been impressed that I haven't seen a single stray dog, cat, or horse and nary a deer or raccoon.

If, however, you want to find some awesome rare stuff just go to the cemetery. Skye found a chinchilla there the second day. I'm going to be really miffed if these animals die off quickly because chinchillas live for over twenty years.

Thanks to Twallan's Consignment mod Skye will make a good living off the various things he's been collecting. His career is Angler but seriously I wish they'd put one in there for junk collector since that's what most of my Sims do. :MrGreen:

Here are a couple of pictures:

He's enjoying the view out his bedroom/kitchen/living room window. :D

   

He adores this bird! I think I'll have him sell it on consignment, though, since I was reading they end up dying after just a few days. (I'll definitely need a mod to kill that "feature".)
