The Redhouse Saga (Updates, maybe)1/8/2013

[Saltypaws]

Agnes finally has some time to relax and the girls pretty much find things to do on their own.  Jessica is always doing dishes and then they swing together and talk for hours.





And me, well lets just say, I hope no one hears me when I talk to the butterfly.  Strange little creatures, they are.



Editors note:  I am not quite sure what the fascination is with this little butterfly.  Jessica spends, what seems like hours watching it and then I caught Nathan doing the same thing.  They do this on their own, with no help from me, lol, strange little sims we have.

Awesome update! The butterfly is pretty! 

No more insane than anyone else on here, lol.  I am so glad that we have somewhere to talk about this or people that don't play the sims probably think we are nuts.  My sister and I sit on the phone forever and talk about each others sims, glad no one is listening.

I have 2 sister's. One is kinda into the sims though not as bad as me so sometimes she understands if I'm upset about something that happened on sims. My other one though doesn't get into them, has no clue how I can spend hours taking care of fake people and has no sympathy about anything that happens. So I'm definitely grateful to have everyone here who knows exactly how it is, and I don't feel like an idiot feeling bad for fake people!

There is not a whole lot going on right now, just trying to get Nathan to get his 25 sculptures and it is going slower than with the Colour Dynasty.  Oh well, Nathan is working, whereas Franklin Colour did not work and sculpted day and night.  I thought I might write on Agnes point of view for a change.

Agnes turn to talk.

When I met Nathan, I knew he was the one for me and I knew he was special.  He is so caring in so many different ways.  The twins were an unexpected joy and we would not change it for anything.  Nathan worries about everything.  I know what has to be done and I have accepted it.  Unfortunately, the hard part is telling Monica that her sister and father will live forever and we will not.  Maybe after she is a teenager or young adult, but I think it should be sooner.  She won't be like her sister and be able to have a family and get married and I am not too sure how she will feel about that.  I wonder myself sometimes.

[Saltypaws]

I guess I was fortunate, in some ways. I never had to worry about money and everything was pretty easy for me. I almost got married and then my fiance drowned in a terrible accident. He was not a very nice person alive and worse when he was dead.  He haunted me almost every night and it got to the point that I could not have gentlemen callers at all.  Now things are so wonderful with Nathan.   The girls started their first day of school and they were really nervous.



After the first day, though Jessica was already bringing friends home.  She brought home one boy, but I think there were some things she did not like about him, his last name was Keaton, I believe.



Jessica is so easy to talk to, she is so much like her father, whereas, Monica is like me and not so much like her father.  I actually got some closeups of the girls and one where I was trying to enthuse Jessica into more fishing without her asking to many questions.

[Saltypaws]

I have to get back to my family and to my paintings.  I am sure someone will be along and talk some more.  Here is a recent painting I just finished and it was a brilliant one, I might add.



I have seen smaller ones similar to this one, but I don't remember seeing a large still life like this before or it might have been quite some time ago.

I love the close ups! The girls are beautiful!

[Saltypaws]

There is not a whole lot going on right now.  It is at the stage where it is kinda slow.   The girls aged up to teen and when Monica went to the park, I found her talking to Christopher Steel.  Too bad he will be an elder when she becomes young adult.  I wouldn't mind having some of his blood in my dynasty family.  Anyway, here is a couple of pics of the girls.

The twins are really lovely, great job!

It is a pity Mr Steel cannot be part of the family.

Very pretty girls - I love their hair and clothes.

[Katluvr]

Great story - good luck with your dynasty!  Monica looks just like Agnes, it's spooky!  Both girls are lovely and Nathan is a hottie!  I completely understand about getting attached to pixels.  My legacy founder, Jewel, is only an adult and already I'm dreading when Grimmy is going to pay a visit.

[Esther1981]

The twins are beautiful!

Thanks for the comments, it does mean alot.  These dynasties are hard work, as everyone knows, so it makes it nice when people read them.  Nothing better than a cup of coffee in the morning and come here and read everyones stories.  Thanks again.

[Esther1981]

You're welcome Salty! Yes it is hard work but so worth it!  I don't really drink coffee, usually I have my mountain dew in my hand while I'm reading!

[kattiq]

The girls are gorgeous!
And I definitely know what you mean about the comments!  I check so much more often now, just to see if anyone has decided to comment on my story
I know it helps me keep going when things get slow and boring in my dynasty.
