Good morning! yesterday was a busy day, but a nice one. I did get to relax at the end of the day, so it's all good. A day of hard work followed by some down time is always a good thing. If you work hard & don't have some "you time" at the end of the day, I hope you can find a way to make some changes & fit that time in, because it really does help. All work & no play isn't good for anyone. We're not machines. The FD got toned out to a MVA, I made a fried egg sandwich for breakfast, got the mail, 

cleaned the house, went grocery shopping, showered, took the dogs out, processed an incoming Avon delivery, the FD got toned out to another MVA, I had a Stouffer's single-serving 5-cheese lasagna for lunch, then instead of loading up Minecraft, I played Sims until everyone got home. When I got the call that everyone was on their way, I started dinner & made some great baked chicken & stuffing w/ Hershey's Kisses for dessert. Yesterday's Sims game 

was Remington, one of my favorite houses (2nd & 3rd pics). My Sim Michael was working in the military career & was going to fulfill his lifetime wish of becoming an astronaut (level 10 in the military career) before starting a family, but for the 1st time ever, my Sim was pursued by another Sim ... my high school romantic interest sent me a gift, sent me a love letter, called, asked me out on 2 dates, & that's when I just gave up & had Michael marry Lisette. They just had their daughter, Liz Jones (3rd gen). Liz loves the outdoors & is disciplined. She'll do well w/ martial arts. Liz is an Aries who likes kids music, fried peanut butter & banana sandwiches, & the color pink. This morning I took the dogs out & loaded up Glenwood Cottage. My Sim Faith (1st gen) is in the university & although I'm done playing the university, it's Friday in the game & I can't tell if it's Friday #1 (w/ another game week to go) or Friday #2 where she goes home tomorrow. I'm going to let her take her exams & see if she goes home at the end of the weekend. If not, she'll drop out of the university Monday morning before class starts. Faith's lifetime wish is to be a gold digger & she doesn't need the university for that. I'm finding that the university isn't needed for anything other than the experience of going to the university. The specialized jobs that were added w/ the university life expansion pack can be obtained w/ just maxing out influence w/ the jocks, nerds, or rebels. You can do that without the university. Now it's true you get a slight income boost w/ a degree as opposed to not having a degree, but not enough of one to to make me want to go through 3 Sim years of the university in every game, every generation.

Hump days are a good day for investigations. So make today the day you find out what you put under that blue tarp in your backyard all those years ago. If it smells funny, walk away. Same goes for that new heartthrob you met at the bar last week.
