The Halliwell Dynasty (IV the win!)

[kattiq]

Wow, mysteriously appearing pomegranate trees?!? The Halliwells sure do get lucky. First a million simoleons fall from the sky. Then they never have to go potty or sleep! AND then they get pomegranate trees popping up in their yard (so conveniently I might add) that only grow overseas!
And I'm glad the girls are on the honor roll, Natara has a hard time wanting to do her homework. She always seems to be going to boy's houses after school...

Is the Omnificent opportunity needed for Ambrosia requirements?  I'm curious why you're waiting on Ambrosia if you don't really need that opportunity to qualify.

[Esther1981]

Thanks! She is gorgeous isn't she? I have Patty as my pic on my desktop, and I asked my sister "Isn't she beautiful?" She responds, "I guess, if you like smurfs."  That really made me laugh!! Kattiq, the only thing she can figure is that there was this hot air balloon overhead that day, so they must have dropped it! I agree, the Halliwell's are the luckiest pixels in the world! You know the solution to going over to boy's houses right? Click go home, then click on the little blue icon in the inventory and say do homework.  No, it's not needed but I like my gardener to use all the gardening ops, my painter to use all the painting and so on. Keep the rest of them open for later generations. But if it doesn't pop up in the next 4 days, I'm going to have to use the other one.

[Pam]

You're cutting it close at 86 days.  If Penny has met all the Ambrosia requirements, I think she should go ahead and eat it.  Sims have been known to die before reaching 90 days.  She'll have plenty of time to get the Omni plant opportunity.

[Esther1981]

That's true Pam. Chris died at 89 days last time. Shoot, I guess she better eat it tomorrow when I play. Thanks for reminding of that!

[TheChronicR]

Ambrosia for life! Go Penny.

[Saltypaws]

Ya never know about these sims.  One can live until they are 115 and then one the next time die at 89 like yours did.  We always think, they have more time and then when they go early, it is like, what the hay.  Ok, it is really early in the AM and I just read that over, I hope someone else understands what I just wrote, lol.   

[Esther1981]

Thanks TheChronicR! Thanks Salty, yeah I understood it! I thought Chris would live like he did for Pam so when he died at 89, I was truly shocked. I gotta remember each game is different!

[ILoveDolls]

Lol. Did Penny actually tell Agnes she was the Hagness? Oh to be a fly on that bar...

[Katluvr]

He also made alot of nectar racks out of stone. Here he is putting his nectar in his rack. That rack is a masterpiece too!

NICE RACK, Mortimer!

(okay, I know that at least one of you was thinking it...)

Congrats on Penny's imminent immortality!

[Esther1981]

No she was very polite to her. She didn't say what she was thinking lol. Thanks Katluvr, yeah while I was writing that, I started giggling so yep I was thinking it. 

[Esther1981]

I called the girls into the kitchen this morning. I sat them down and pulled out the list. I explained that I was destined to be Immortal, and so was Patty. I also told them that unfortunately even though I can live forever, and Patty will too, Allen, Mortimer and Melinda were also destined to die.

Patty was shocked, but she took it well. I guess knowing she will live forever took the sting out of it for her. We hugged.

Melinda though was furious. Oh my, she was so mad!


I told her I was so sorry, but rules are rules. Even though I want her, Mortimer and Allen to live forever, it just was not possible. I also told her if she fought me on this, me and her sister would die as well. She doesn't want that. It was just a shock, but we hugged and made up.

Melinda went upstairs and took out some frustrations on topiary. I'm really glad she didn't have that chainsaw in the kitchen with her!

Before I show everyone myself getting immortalized, I'll run down my list for you guys. My lifetime wish was to have 8 perfect plants in my garden. Done! My career was gardening. I'm level 10! My chosen supermax skill was gardening. Done! My museum has my YA, A and Elder picture, portrait and sculpture! Check! I bought Stoney Falls and the Bistro and renamed them Penny's Fishing Hole and Penny's Bistro! Check! My unique rewards are Super Green Thumb, No bills ever, and Suave Seller. Check! My 6 opportunities are A just in time harvest, Celebrity body, Uncommonly good, Outstandingly rare, Best food in town, and Broadway cameo. Check! My 6 best friends are Allen Halliwell, Hank Wan, Sue Scotch, Geoffrey Landgraab, Tori Kimura and Zelda Mae. Check! My list of requirements is done. The only weird this is I didn't get my steak op and Patty has gotten no ops from school or other places. I hope it's not a bug!! Anyways, on with my immortality!!

That was an awesomely divine meal! Check out my sparkles!!

I went upstairs to harvest and noticed Melinda cheering! I'm very glad she's ok now!

Last pic of the night is my finished museum.

Ok, when I was having my talk with the girls, I also asked Patty to take over keeping everyone updated. So that's it for me. I was 88 days old when I ate my Ambrosia. Yeah, I even waited a couple extra days hoping for that op and finally decided I couldn't risk it anymore. Enjoy my Immortality, I know I will! 

[Lilygirl]

Congrats on your Immortality Penny! Have fun lazing around in your hot tub again.

[Esther1981]

Thanks Lily! She sure will!  She earned the hot tub last time, and with skipping an age, she definitely earned it this time!! I am proud of what she was able to accomplish skipping an age! 

[kattiq]

YAY for Penny!!!! I'm glad she made it even with the retarded aging bug!
I'm glad Melinda finally turned around and wasn't mad anymore. If I was her I'd be happy knowing I wouldn't have to live forever as an old person
