Then I became a lurker and finally poster at PMBD. After some kerfluffle, I actually started making things. Certain things happened in the community that killed my creative spirit for a while.

THEN, my computer did the whole BSOD, and I couldn't even get to the point where I could enter windows at all. I couldn't do anything. I had to wait to get to work to research the problem. Everything I read stated to fix...tag:https:,2007-12-05://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showentry&e=2165Fairytale contest2007-12-05T20:12:52Z2007-12-05T20:12:52ZHey! I made the short list. I am thrilled! There was a comment in the thread that since there were more chosen for the short list, it wasn't as special. I disagree.

Not in the "hey we don't know where she is" kind of way, but in the "she died and this really sucks" kind of way. I was very close to her and just spent the last week dealing with her death, viewing and funeral. I must say that viewings suck and funerals suck.

I think that is just about the best I can do in making sims. I am also working on a gargoyle set for sims: skins, matching clothes, so they look like the skins, recolored wings, hair recolored like the skins...the works.

I think it turned out cute, so I hope the moderators do too. It even has a manure pile with animated flies!
I cannot come up with anything for the next contest, so I probably will sit this one out. Unless I learn to sim.

I did their house as my one and only lot upload if you want to see it. They have 15 acres and 3 dogs and 4 horses. With my 2 cats, that is a few animals. Anyway, my next set is also inspired by their place.

I had a request to do a zen type candle thing and so I did. Three candles on recolorable bases with small stones in front of the candles.

I try to keep them in perspective by telling myself that birthdays are actually just the number of planetary cycles that have happened since I was born. It doesn't really mean anything. Right?
And no, I won't tell you how old I am.

1. Work on a candle set OR
2. Finally finish the darn anatomical set.
Then I am heading out of town for a while.

This one is going to be less serious and more fun/frivolous than the kitchen set. I am interested to see the reaction. I am hoping that the set is almost completed and will be up by next weekend.

It is a modern set and my first attempt at a kitchen. It was a tremendous amount of work, but I learned a lot doing this. It certainly increased my mapping skills.
I am hoping to have it up in the next few days.

I have no idea how long this will take as I am also working on a couple of lectures and my darn book report.
I would also like to PLAY the Sims for a bit. That is why I have it, right?tag:https:,2007-01-13://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showentry&e=949Next2007-01-13T14:23:25Z2007-01-13T14:23:25ZFinished the Well, which took way more work than I anticipated.
