 I was finally able to get through the Pearson household (see PV 7/28/25) by saving every couple of hours.  I still had multiple crashes though, so moving them out and back in might still be necessary, but that's a problem for future me lol.  ANYWAY, Luke sold another dog and replaced it with a new puppy; he's up to 15 puppies/kittens at this point, so he's getting close to completing his LTW.  Delia had the day, all the kids went to school, Arthur had some friends over, but got into a fight with one of them, so I don't think they're friends anymore.  He'll be graduating next round and possibly heading off to college.  Juliet will also be aging up to teen next time.

Carter Broke (see PV 7/29/25) scored, not one, but two chance card promotions in a single day.  He later had a date with Myrtle Gieke and worked on the skills needed for his next promotion.  

Happy Simming!

 In the Jones/McCullough household (see PV 7/27/25) everyone got promoted (except Phil, who was already at the top of his elder job).  Ryker had some friends over, while Darlene and Audrey worked on skills.  Both ladies also rolled the want to become witches, so they will try to befriend the evil witch.

That's it, unfortunately.  I started playing Luke Pearson & company, but the lot crashed several times, with very little progress.  I had to quit and won't be able to play again for a while, so I'll pick up with them and (hopefully) be able to finish them next time.  It did successfully save once, so that's good, but I might have to move them out and back in if the problem persists.  I hope it doesn't come to that, as the house is extensively furnished, but that could be the problem, as the house has been in the family for ages...

Anyway, until next time, Happy Simming!

 Belinda Alpha (see PV 7/25/25) was not so lucky at cheating death this time; she passed away (for good) at age 68.  Belinda was the last second-generation child in the Alpha Legacy.  Bryan and Rebecka will continue to live in this house as roommates; they're pretty close friends and I don't see why they wouldn't keep things as is for now.  It's beneficial to both of them - they have a substantial amount of cash available, which allows Bryan to buy whatever he wants and keeps Rebecka out of prison.

Toby Grundstrom (see PV 7/27/25) will be joining Belinda at the Rest in Peace Cemetery; he was 72.  I decided that if their breeding cat was still able to have another litter of kittens, I would move Roger to his mother's place to allow room for that; if not, he would stay here.  As it turned out, Natalia is too old, so her one kitten, Edyta, will become the new breeding female when she ages up, as I want to continue the original bloodline.  While we're waiting for all that to happen though, Melody and Marcus will be adding to their (human) family once again, as Melody is pregnant with their fourth child.  Roger will graduate and move to college before the new baby is born, leaving room in the household once again for more pets/children.

Happy Simming!

 Tosha Go (see PV 7/25/25) decided to move her boyfriend Stuart in and they subsequently got married.  Stuart wants to go into Law eventually, but my rule with townies is they have to top (or get fired from) the job they already have before moving into a new position.  He's currently working in Medicine, so he'll continue with that for now.  Claire's puppies grew into adult dogs, and the house became even more chaotic than before.  I'm considering having Claire move in with one of her sons once they graduate from college because the newlyweds could use some breathing room.

Amar Smith (see PV 7/25/25) graduated high school and got accepted to SSU, where he will major in drama and later go into the Athletic career.  Gabe wanted his girlfriend Kitty to move in, but she declined, so he made the decision to adopt another child on his own, who we'll meet next round.

Cord and Octavius Tinker bought a house with the money they inherited from their parents.  After minimal furnishing, however, they were flat broke.  Octavius was able to find his dream job in Show Business, but Cord had to settle for Adventure, as Oceanography wasn't available and they really need to get some cash coming in.

Katie Tellerman (see PV 7/25/25) hosted a small dinner party to celebrate turning 70.  She still has a decent amount of time on her life bar, but I need to start thinking about which of her kids will inherit the house/pets, etc.

Chase Picaso received his final promotion to top Oceanography; his new LTW is for Culinary (which was Alyssa's old LTW lol), and he will switch to that once he's taken all his vacation time.  The new baby will be born next round I believe.

Happy Simming!
