      I had lunch out with a friend and two cokes while there. Got some caffiene. Now to see how long I stay awake this evening. :)

  2. I just found out that after 3 years and 2-1\2 months my dad's estate is now officially closed. I am not sure how I feel right now. I miss him so much! I am trying to be positive!

      Thanks Rose! I will laugh tonight when the sims do the "Gangnam Style" Horse dance for me! :)

      "hugs" Never easy Kate sounds like a fun idea.

      Thank you WM. Your sim helped! Now to get an update ready!

  3. I have served on Jury Duty 10 times so am hoping I do not have to report for another possible case on the 30th. I don't want to do it anymore.

      You have been lucky, Jenn.I think our area just doesn't have as many qualified to serve so those who are get called more often.

      I know the feeling. I recently served Jury Duty last December. Every 3 years, they just send me a notice. I think my name is on a special list that's not part of the pool of what. 500,000 people living in the area?

      I offer my condolences. Five months after turning age 18, almost every two years, I receive a summons.

  4. Our Weatherman told us last night that we haven't had rain for 39 straight days. I guess the light 10 minutes I saw here one day did NOT get to much of town! We have had the smoke for 42 days. Folks we sure could use some rain here! :(

      Shonie, Forgot to mention I live in Missoula MT so we are probably getting smoke from some of the same areas!

      Supposed to rain today. Keeping positive thoughts!

      don't abandon hope, Kate! I'm sure it'll rain there soon. :)

  5. Why do I continue to check TSR's Upcoming Creation section when I am trying to cut BACK on CC?

      Katelinjens

      Nyxie - I get my game going well and then I accidentally get some bad cc in it and have to clean the files out. I hate having to locate bad cc and I always check it before it goes in game so how it workd for a while and then goes bad I don't understand.

    3. Nyxie

      Nyxie

      Ah yeah, I can see that.

    4. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      I got the new male toddler outfit from TSR today. Now to check it before putting it in the game:)

  6. Had an emergency trip to the Retina doctor this afternoon. My one good eye is having a problem so my vision will be not so good for several days. :(

      Thanks Jennifer! It isn't as bad now so that is a relief. :)

  7. Two weeks not being able to eat meat and several other items has been sooo HARD! Only two more days to go and I can slowly and carefully start adding things back to my meals. What should I have first?

      Shredded pork is a another good choice. I have chicken and pork in the freezer. Can't wait for Thursday to get here!

      I thought of another thing if you really must have beef, my grandfather ate this when he had oral surgery. Tyson beef and gravy, the beef is very tender you might have to cut it up into smaller pieces but it cuts with a butter knife I kid you not.

    4. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      Thanks Wolfenblu! :) I had forgotten about that. I have seen it at Albertsons.

  8. My project for the afternoon is installing TS3 on my new computer. I can't wait to try it out and see how it plays. :)

      Yay! I can't wait for you to play!

      Katelinjens

      I still have cc to sort and get ready. I haven't played today. Tomorrow I will replace all the worlds with fixed ones and add a few mods and play a bit to see how things go. I am looking at 3 days at least before I am sure I can add saved games in.

  9. Chill factor tonight could reach -35 degrees! Since it is still Fall I hate to think what Winter weather will be like!

      We had our first snow day, and it's November we usually don't get them until right before Christmas.

      I know! The weather is completely crazy! The temperature here is already as if it were January. Colder weekend, so keep the blankets ready everyone!! :)

  10. I never thought I would say this but I am praying for a cancellation. My ENT doctor only operates on Thursday's. My voice has been bad for several weeks but the first opening is July 23rd! I sure hope I don't have to wait that long for my next treatment!

  11. After some thought I recently uninstalled TS4. All I was doing was updating it. I got tired of updating something I am not playing. Maybe one day I will try it again.

      I agree on to much updating. If I install it again, it is going to be on my terms, it is going to be on a multi-boot system. The Sims 4 with Orgin will get is very own hard drive with an old Vista Operating system. This will keep Orgin off my main system. When I want to run it, I will boot into it to play it and update it but when I do not boot it up it will do absolutely nothing.

    3. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      That is a good plan. i dislike having to log online to play anything.

    4. Wolfenblu

      Wolfenblu

      that would bite as our net doesn't work all the time.

  12. Hi All.

    I just wanted to stop in and wish everyone a wonderful Spring.  I am still trying to get things going better at my end but I think of all of you often. :hug3:

  13. Wish someone could send us some rain! We have hadvery little rain here in Western Montana and LOTS of smoke due to fires. I must stay inside most of the time. I am praying for rain to put out the fires and clear the air so I can go outside some. This has been going on for WEEKS now.:( Guess it is time to do a rain dance again and hope it works this time!

      Our forecast now has rain possible for tomorrow and Tuesday. I sure hope that they are right and we get a LOT!

      Those fires would terrify me! I hope nobody is in danger. Add klutzy me to your raindance!

    4. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      Thanks nixicole! I am hoping we will get some rain today. Scattered showers are a better forecast than nothing! The fires themselves aren't super close but they are causing harm where they are so I pray they can be put out soon! Rain Dance better work!

  14. I am in trouble here. Keeping track of my sims so much lately that I woke up thinking today was Sunday! How did I manage to "lose" a day?

      thinks Signy stumbled out of Trif's comments and into the wrong thread. Friends don't let friends comment drunk.

      LOL! I lost an entire Thursday and never got it back. I was sure I went straight from Wednesday to Friday.

    4. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      Well at least I found out it was a day earlier but I could sure use some more "extra" days!

  15. I lost my internet service for about 22 hours. So why did it feel like a week?

      Now that twallan is updated (well 2 are in testing), I couldn't resist. I don't do non-store items as sims3packs. I'm about to the point where I'm gonna convert store items, too.

    3. Rosewin

      Rosewin

      Glad you made it back Kate. *hug*

    4. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      Thanks Rose. One would think 22 hours wouldn't be a long time but hey that long away from here is difficult! :)

  16. One of my sims decided to have a discreet rendezvous. When the list came up of available male sims it included the Grimm Reaper? LOL!

      WB - In descreet rendezvous they go into the Spa rabbit hole and you don't actually see them so I doubt it. :(

      must be very romantic to go on a date with Grimm reaper. Wonder what would he rip off ;-)

  17. The new tower has arrived and is out of the box. So far I have just looked at it. It will take me a couple of hours to get the courage to start setting it up but I am excited!

      I played that day and did some chores the next. Sometimes games need to be a priority! Of course my cat Katie did take the top priority but she loves to watch me play DAI.

  19. I haven't played TS3 since mid December of last year. Last week I decided to check in on the boys and guess what?  Two minutes into the game it had a problem and had to close. After the third try I quit. Did my boys abandon me?  I guess I'll have to do a fresh file one of these days.

      Well, you could get lucky - it could turn out to be cc or a fixable memory issue, like the pagefile-fix-thingy I found for my error 12s awhile back. Good  luck!

    3. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      Thanks everyone! :grouphug:  I spent yesterday working on the game. I just did a fresh file and did a new save. I played 2 hours with no problems. Of course a baby is on the way already. My two  guys will never change. :slaplol:

      Take your time! But just know that we miss you and your sims!

    4. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      I am working on TS3.  trying to get a world working the way I like.  I do use player worlds and place all lots and sim households so it will take awhile.  I will try to practice and see about posting my sims and will let you know when I get nearer to doing so.  

      Kimi  - I am honored that you and some others miss my sims and!  

      :hug3:

  21. Just had to say I reached 500 in Posts! I have never done this anywhere before. Can't believe it. Now it is a LONG "struggle" to the next level. With all the neat threads here maybe I will make it one day!:)

      It was "The Story of Me" by the Everly Brothers for those who didn't see the threads it is mentioned in.

  24. My absence on my story is due to my working on a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle while watching the Dark Shadows series. I started the puzzle a LONG time ago but I want it done yesterday so gotta keep working at it!

      Watching DS is great. The puzzle is a rather complicated design that can be frustrating. I refuse to give up on it though!

      My grandfather loves working puzzles his favourite is a market place and an autumn scene both give me headaches.

  25. If I am suddenly not around it is because of my computer. It started acting up yesterday and it froze earlier this morning. I hope it is nothing serious. It is almost 21\2 years old. I did the disk check thing this morning and hope that helped it. Time will tell I guess. Just thought I would let you all know in case trouble happens with it. I sure hope it won't!

      Have you tried running any anti-malware just to be sure?

    4. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      Abraxas - I run anti-malware everyday. I am still hoping things are OK. At least for today they have been. If I need to I will start a thread or post in an exsisting one. Just wanted folks to know in case I can't get online for some reason. :)
