The Sims Life & Times

The Sims, as anyone who plays can attest, takes on a life of its own. I created this blog so I could keep track of my sim stories and share them with others. I've always wanted to write stories but unfortunately I'm not very good at it lol I am hoping that just as my house building has improved so will my storytelling abilities.

My main family is called the Snookers. My goal was to move 1 sim into Relfamtown and see how the population would grow. I hope you will follow along with me.
If you would like to see all the stories in the Relfamtown series then click on Snooker Chronicles to the left and start at the bottom of the list.

UPDATE - Well since I had a major meltdown and lost Relfamtown, the Snookers are now in Sim Heaven and there will not be anymore updates on them :-( Out of the bad comes good though and Tesime is a new neighbourhood that I created for the Test of Time challenge. I hope you will enjoy their stories as well !

Tesime - Round Six: The Phan chapter


Ashanti Phan had become a wonderful cook and loved to feed any neighbours who might drop by. Ping, not wanting to disappoint his mother and insult her wonderful talent, would eat up every bit she put in front of him. This had an adverse effect on his waist line. Since there are limited females around to mate with he might want to go for a few laps around the local huts and get back into shape ! My second genie lamp that I cannot use! Rebecca Lindt dropped by for some girl talk and as it always does they got talking men. I wonder if the train refers to the size or the speed of their husbands? LMAO All that talk must have sparked some interest because it wasn't long before Ashanti was running for the terlet ( thats what they are called in caveman days). Just once she thought, it would be nice to find it empty ! Two of the boys had aging ceremonies - Mykelti into a cute little child and Manchu into a *wolfwhistle* teen! Showing another range of Pooklet's skins the last child of Cimon and Ashanti was born. Another boy named Oringo which means no females for this lot at all ! In case you were wondering where the excuse 'a dog at my homework' came from - exhibit A :-)

Tesime - Round Six: The Lindt chapter


Welcome back to the Lindt's. It was all happening here this time around. Even though the seasons are all set to summer you could have sworn it was spring. Love was in the air ! After all the sniffing around at the Stonegate lot, Liam finally got his first kiss with Summer Stonegate. How much more romantic can you get for our very first skin one couple !? OMG after all those boys !!! A new baby GIRL. Shoshana is the first Tesimite to debut the new skins. I may have to call her powder as a nickname lol Gideon and Abner both had aging ceremonies. Another teenager to go on the hunt ! Hmm does he have anyone in mind? It looks that way :-) Juno Stonegate and Gideon seem to have a crush on each other. The crops do not look after themselves and as parents Samuel and Rebecca have been teaching the boys well. Plants are very happy to have someone to talk to. These skills will come in very handy when they take a wife. Growing like a weed Shoshana aged to toddler eek not sure about the cuteness factor now Remember the love is in the air comment a little earlier? Well lookie here. Gideon and Juno Stonegate seem to have some romantic intentions towards each other ! Altogether now - Monkey see.....Monkey do ! I think we may have a competition to see who will have babies first. Over dinner Liam mentioned he thought Annalise Benet was rather fit. Oh is that so said Summer? Well let me tell you something right now mister, if we are going anywhere as a couple you will get that little tart out of your mind ! Liam, knowing what a great thing he's got going and the fact that I would kill him if he screwed up this perfect skin 1 coupling, hastily backtracked to say no he was just joking and Annalise wasnt that great afterall.
Lindt: Samuel, Rebecca, Liam, Gideon, Jeremy, Abner and Shoshana

Tesime - Round Six: The Stonegate chapter


The redheads should be the name of this family ! Talk about a gene being dominant - Jared you are definitely the head of this clan. Summer and Liam Lindt spent some time together and as you can see there was attraction on both sides. (Go skin 1's ! ) The kids were not to be left out as Dawn aged to toddler and poor Cruz realized he was learning almost nothing at tribal lore camp. It seemed that he was different than the other boys in his group ( dun dun duuun ) The twins Marcus and Juno aged to teenhood - they are definitely not hard on the eyes. April being the breeder that she is had another baby girl named May - talk about an audience at a birth ! ( This is the first baby with Pooklet's new skins I downloaded - still not sure how it is going to work out but I'm willing to give it a go for interest sake - thanks taliahneth and Starsaphire2 for telling me about them :-D ) Summer will make a great mother. She is teaching Dawn to talk and poor May learned it is not ok to pee in the bed ! She does not rule the roost though as Juno reminded her. Playtime is fun but too much of a good thing can upset a little kids stomach. Cruz will think twice in the future about being swung around for that long ! Watch out girls that cute little animal does not want to be petted.
Stonegate: Jared, April, Summer, Marcus, Juno, Cruz, Dawn and May

Tesime - Round Six: The Benet chapter


The loving Benet's ! If left to their own devices Skalton and Belle would rather make out with each other than anything else. I guess it is no wonder they now have 5 kids. For the first time ever the genie showed up and of course I could only put the lamp in a backpack :-( Now that Jorn is growing up he had to show his father just how strong he was becoming. Later in the day Jorn invited Violet Gallant over and tried to chat her up. "Vi just being in your presence is like the sun shining after a gray sky" *sigh* Like any boy he wasnt sure if he getting anywhere or not. April Stonegate seemed to have some rather strange notions floating around in that pretty little blond head of her - you are already married woman !! Finally we had lots of aging ceremonies - Ida became a toddler, Annalise became a teen and Belle had another baby boy! Welcome to Tesime little Benito. (This family knows how to do a lovely mix of males and females - The Lindt's and Phan's could take a cue from them ! )
Benet: Skalton, Belle, Jorn, Annalise, Frida, Ida and Benito

Tesime - Round Six: The Gallant chapter


Tesime was one hot island ! Even though the Gallant's were darken skinned, Basil and Forest showed the beginning signs of heat stroke. They spent some time indoors until their temperatures returned to normal. Tre heard a terrible disturbance one afternoon and ran to the front of the hut to see the local wildlife attacking each other. He decided it might be time to use some of the bamboo around the lot to make some sharpened sticks for protection. Finally Basil joined his sister as a teenager ! ( Those Spock eyebrows are something else lol ) Rose took some time to teach Skye how to walk - if those wild dogs came back maybe the child could run for cover. Violet could tell Forest was feeling down so she tried to comfort him. I guess Ping Phan must have heard about her maternal traits because he dropped by and it didn't take a rocket scientist to see what he had on his mind. While Jared Stonegate visited one evening a new baby boy, River, was added to the family. Little Skye became a child and jumped for joy since she was not the youngest or the smallest anymore ! ( I had to include the shot of Rose and Tre talking about the genie lamp, I wasnt the only one wondering what it was all about lol ! )
Gallant: Tre, Rose, Violet, Basil, Forest, Skye and River
