Chase and Alyssa Picaso (see PV 5/5/25) have been wanting to go on a beach vacation for quite some time; they even bought a beach house (or what I thought was a house, lol) in preparation, but I've been waiting for Troy to be old enough to go with them. Since Troy grew into a child last round, I decided the time had come for them to go to Twikki Island. I was quite surprised to learn that the "beach house" they bought was just a lot with trees and a couple of hammocks, which is perfect for two plantsims like Alyssa and Chase, but not so great for Troy, who needs to eat and stuff. I considered building a small shelter, but since I usually have sims spend most of their vacation time at community lots, I decided to just wing it and see how it went with keeping Troy's needs up. In the end, it wasn't too hard to do, apart from hygiene (he returned home very stinky, lol) and everyone had a good time; in fact, they had such a good time that a lullaby was heard. Upon returning home, they spent a relaxing Sunday together. Troy met a couple of kids who walked by and his parents got some chores done around the house. With the new addition arriving in a few days, I've decided to move the family to a new house. The trailer was fine for just the three of them, but Troy's room is quite small and sharing with a sibling is not really going to work. I moved them to a house that's been vacant for a while, as the elderly couple who lived there did not have any children to leave the house to; a dog has been placeholding the house. I'm excited to see how my new mortgage rules work out; Chase and Alyssa are the first sims to take one, so we'll see how it goes.
Demi Butler was in a terrible mood (I think the pregnancy is hitting her hard) so she took a vacation day from work and took care of the toddlers and herself. I'm not sure if she'll still get the promised promotion when she returns to work, but she was in no shape to go in, so we'll roll with it. In addition to Demi's vacation pay, Hayden also brought home a paycheck, so the couple was in good enough financial shape by the end of the round to buy a house of their own. They'll be moving to Pleasant Valley. Lauren had the night off, which she spent teaching Lily some toddler skills. She also hired a maid to help out around the house, since the place is absolutely disgusting.
Zoe Picaso (see PV 5/6/25) had the day, which was spent caring for the dogs, teaching one of them a skill for work, and stargazing. Sadly, one of the dogs (Dina, who is about one day away from dying of old age) ran away from home. Zoe reported it immediately; hopefully she'll be returned without anything glitching up when she ages.
Taylor Dreamer (see PV 5/6/25) got fired from his Culinary job, but he took a job in Music instead. He also finished his GED and began working on his degree for Architecture. Caryl got promoted to the top of her teen career in Business and Ethan had the day off.
Russ Bear (see PV 5/6/25) spent a quiet day at home with his daughter Robin.
Happy Simming!
