Did you try opening Origin and signing into it?   What about restarting your computer?

Are you sure this stops you from getting the patches?  I used to get the "unable to connect to Origin" message all the time on my previous computer, but I never had any trouble getting the patches so I just ignored the message.

Did you try manually downloading a patch and not using the launcher?

How do you do that?

You can find links to a superpatch from patch day on SimsVIP and Crinrict's Sims 3 Help Blog.   I would actually suggest the first two things I mentioned before though. 

Have you restarted your computer and have you tried opening up Origin?  Origin has to be up to date and if you haven't opened it in a while then it needs to be updated anyway.

Another point is that I know you have two separate dynasty files going right now.  I would recommend not playing them until you get the patch fixed all the way up to patch 1.39.   Being on the latest patch is a part of the rules of the challenges and without doing so, you put your Hall of Fame chances at risk.
