I so hope you can sort the file problems! Seven generations in the game ... oh dear, you just have to make this work!
Also, I loved the little entry from Janice's diary - so intriguing.
I may not comment as often, but I'm reading - always!

I hope that deleting stuff solves your problems it is very, very annoying to run into such bugs so late in a dynasty.

*fingers crossed* I've also found that deleting extra vegetables/fruits came in handy after building up hundreds of apples and such.

That's great news!

Removing unnecessary objects are a pain but can give great results for loading times. In the last few weeks of my ID I scrapped large parts of the garden, and the entire nectar cellar, which improved performance somewhat.

Break a leg!

yes deleting some of the unnecessary curd is helping out alot!!

Growing Up with The Brooks Pt 2

Well, the came for Charity to go off to school. Cruz headed of to work, plus later that evening he had a fundraiser to host.

Well look at you! Getting all sweaty again! It's good to see you working out again hon!
Colt: Thanks sweetness!! It makes me feel young again!

Colt: Cams been reading some of moms dairy to me lately. I never knew all that stuff. She really did love us. She did love me, and all I did was turn me back on her. I'm such a horrible son.

Colt, she did it to protect you, she knew what the out come would be and accepted it. She doesn't hold it against you. She forgave you along time ago hun. You need to forgive yourself now.

Colt: Maybe, when this all over and my dad is out of this nightmare.

Burning off all those cookies you ate my dear?
Cage: Yes, They are so good though!! LOL

Time warp forward a few hours:

As the party gets underway:

Cruz: Wow thanks Grandpa, I do need a new umbrella! LOL

Charity: Yummy, Hot fresh cookies for breakfast!!
Easy on the sweets little one or you will be looking like your grandpa!! LOL

Some of the guest where outside in the rain bobbing for apples!

While others preferred the hot tub in the rain:

Colby dear? What happened to the color in your eyebrows? They are grey!
Colby: I have no clue, your the watcher, fix it woman!!
You are starting to sound just like your father!!

SimBlip · « **Reply #1174 on:** April 01, 2013, 11:30:55 PM »

Lol at Colby starting to sound like Colt (but he did)!

I love the way you alternate suspense with every day life stuff.
Like, the piece Janice wrote was intense, and this part is more relaxed.
Keep going, Shannon, you are doing great!

sdhoey · « **Reply #1175 on:** April 06, 2013, 03:05:42 PM »

Lady that I forget her name: Yes, Cruz, I'll be happy to donate to your campaign. Your wife has done a lovely job hosting the event.
Cruz: Thank you for support, I am glad you are enjoying the party.

Cruz: I was wondering if I might have your support in the coming poles and election when I run for leader?
?: Yes, My family and I look forward to supporting you in your campaign Cruz. I will be donating before I leave tonight to your lovely wife Liana.
Cruz: Thank you very much.

During the party, Zoey the cat, had her Adult birthday.

As the evening starts to wind down, Cruz goes in for a quick bite to eat.

Colby is not far behind to clean up after everyone.

The next morning, ALL the little gnomes are having a pow wow on the front walk way!!

Colt: Glad that party is over, I hate all those snobby people in my house.
Cruz: Gramps, those SNOBS, helped raise over 45,000 for my campaign, I'm off to work. Try to not get into trouble!!

After school:
I'm trying to figure out how she did this!!

Great to see an update!
Looks like Cruz is cruising through the political careeer and well... maybe Charity inherited the ability to levitate?

saltpastillen · « **Reply #1177 on:** April 06, 2013, 06:20:56 PM »

It's great to see the file (and the family) alive and well again.

It's a gnome convention!

I'm glad that the file is cooperating at least enough for continued play. Fingers crossed that it can handle one more generation.

Charity is such a doll!

Levitation? Or perhaps she's practising yoga?

All of those gnomes will make a hefty income! Cruz's party looked fun.

Well she is going to be a fortune teller.. Maybe she has tricks up her sleeves that she is not sharing with me!! LOL I love my gnomes.. Like Artie, Colt has a nice little gnome resting place in the corner of his yard!! LOL He has PLENTY on money!! LOL

Whoo! The Brooks are back! Haha, I can't believed I missed seeing these updates. I'm so glad you seem to have things up and running again!

The Last Days of Childhood

Well Charity is two days out from becoming a teen. Yes that's right, our little girl is growing up.

What are you doing?
Cruz: Going thru the haunted house, what else?
Don't you remember the LAST time you went in of these? You actual WENT!!!
Cruz: Hush woman, I was a child then, I'm a grown man now.
Yeah right, whatever you say.
