SADNESS ENGULFS ME

 
 
So, the game was running fine and then I installed the latest update 12.0.273.019.001 (1.41.130.019001) which is the update for supernatural etc. I now can't play it at all.
It loads fine, I click on a save game (Jayda's) and it gets about an 1/8th across and then NADA. Won't work.
 I've looked on every forum I can find and still nothing is helping. All mods are gone and nothing.
 
So yeah, this may be the end of my challenge :(
Which really upsets me.
I had a whole really awesome post planned for Halloween tonight which clearly isn't happening :'(
And if I can't get it fixed then Sims3 is never getting played on again.
Because it won't let me play.
 
And also, her save file may be lost in the process (i'm just hoping I backed it up right)
 
 
SO IF ANYBODY WOULD LIKE TO FIX MY GAME FOR ME. PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSEEEE DO.
I'll give you cookies.
Possibly real, most likely virtual.

God works in mysterious ways.

 
 
I couldn't believe the triplets were almost ready to move out. None of them wanted to go to prom and all wanted to grow up and move out into their own places. Before they aged up, Hallie ran to the toilet and I heard her noisily throw up. I followed her to the bathroom and opened the door.
"Hal, darling. It's me. Are you ok?"
"Mmm. Just... I dunno."
She walked out and picked up the cat, cradling Nashira to her chest.
"Hal. What's going on?"
I whispered, pulling her hair back from her face.
"Mama. I think i'm pregnant."
 
 
I stood there staring out my window, not able to take in what I was hearing.
"You... pregnant. I... Are you... I mean. Are you keeping it Hallie?"
 
 
I turned to her, my face in shock.
 
 
"Yes, it's my baby."
"Hal, I didn't mean it like that, I just... you're so young."
I stopped talking, seeing the face she was pulling at me. Then she softened.
"Mama. You won't be dissapointed in me if I keep it will you?"
 
 
"Oh my. Hallie, of course not baby girl. I'm your mama and I love you. No matter what happens. I'm always here for you."
We hugged it out and walked out the room, only to bump into a grinning Fergal.
 
"I'm going to become a world renowned surgeon so i'll deliver your baby Hallie."
"Yeah, thanks babe. I'll let you know."
He ran off looking rather pleased with himself and Hallie shook her head.
"That child is not going anywhere near my area."
 
 
Coal got fleas so we had to give him a flea bath. Then we gave all the animals one just to be safe. The animals weren't allowed anywhere near Austin because he hadn't had his shots yet or near Hallie because of the baby.
 
 
Scott and his girlfriend looked after the younger children while I went over to Brayden and Loretta's house for their daughter Mary's birthday party. She was beautiful, a mini me, but with Ettie's nose and eye shape.
 
 
She did become a kleptomaniac which worried Brayden a lot, but Ettie just laughed, ruffling her daughters hair.
"She's too soft. I'd barely be able to afford a pair of shoes with the amount she would steal."
I'm starting to think my daughter is a bit mad in the head too.
 
I should be pregnant by now but I've been so busy taking care of a very poorly Hallie. She lay in bed cheering Austin on when I taught him to walk and talk. Scott gave all the pets another flea bath to be sure while Annie shooed away the stray white cat that always lingered around.
 
"That's probably how we're getting all these fleas Scott. Get rid of it."
"Annie, it's a stray. It'll die out there. I'll leave it some food outside but it won't come back in. Ok?"
 

 
"Yeah, sure Scott. That's why it's playing with Coal on the floor right now. Get rid of it or I will."
 
My garden had grown unruly and horrible so I decided to replace it completely, replanting it all again. I came back inside to wash my hands and heard sobs coming from the bedroom.
"Hal?"
 
 
I pushed open the bedroom door and found Hallie on the floor surrounded by blood.
"She's not breathing. She's dead mama."
 
 
Shaking, I wrapped my arms around my daughters shoulders, helping her up. I called Annie and together we lifted her onto the bed. Scott called an ambulance to take her to the hospital. When they came, they put Hallie on a stretcher.
"Ma'am. She's having another one. We're gonna have to take her to hospital now if there's any chance of her saving the baby."
One of the staff started to wrap the dead baby up in blankets to take it away.
"NO. THAT'S MY BABY. THAT'S MY baby. Please. I want my baby. Why isn't she alive?"
I could only stand there and sob as they took Hallie into the ambulance. Annie pushed me a little.
"Mama. You need to go with her, we'll stay and look after Callie, Ferg and Austin
 
Unfortunately, the second baby was also stillborn. We had a quiet ceremony and buried the twins in the cemetary. Helping Hallie into the car, she turned to me, her hands clutching mine tightly, tears streaming down her face. Her mascara had run lots and I started dabbing my tissue over the marks.

"Mama. If you have girls, two girls, name them Chloe and Leanne for me?"
"Of course darling. They're beautiful names."
"That's what I would have named the girls."
 
Hallie and her boyfriend Drew would never get over the shock of losing both girls, but they agreed to take things slowly. In no time at all though, Hallie was pregnant again. She was extremely cautious about this pregnancy, not wanting to lose the baby again and due soon.
 
 
Annie looked the splitting image of me, which all my red haired girls seemed to do. She moved out on her own for the time being as she didn't have a boyfriend yet. She wanted to focus on her career first of all before a family came along.
 
 
Scott and Kelly got married as soon as they aged up and they also got right to work on starting a famly. Lots of grandchildren for me! They took Coal with them too as Scott had always adored that cat since being a child.

You don't spell love; You feel it - Baby 13

 
Round at Calista's house, I found Viridian. Apparently, Calista being the generous woman she is, expanded her house and let Viridian rent the other rooms for him and his kids. Although, I can't say that she was that unhappy about them staying anyway. She liked flirting with Viridian (even though I was pregnant with his child) and adored the kids.
 
"I thought you had a boyfriend Miss Smith."
I joked with her, she just pulled a face at me stating she was just being friendly.
"OH IS THAT WHAT IT IS!"
I stuck my toungue out at her, which prompted a pillow fight, with poor Viridian standing there confused.
 
 
 
I was extremely glad I had met Calista. But the thing was, I'd never had a proper best friend when I was little and I would never have Calista if I hadn't of started this challenge. To me, she was my best friend. She'd be there, standing by my side at my wedding if I ever got married. I loved her to bits.
 
As I waved goodbye to them, Fergus surprised me with my own boquet of flowers. I knew where this was going, but was happy with them all the same. I smiled, waved goodbye and left to go home.
 
 
The reason behind me leaving early?!
My granddaughter; Mary. She was so beautiful and Brayden really didn't look old enough to have a child, let alone Ettie.
 
 
After they had gone home, I went for a jog and promptly threw up halfway down the road. Yum. Guess I'm pregnant then?
 
 
Apart from that incident, this pregnancy was going really well.
No cramps, cravings or morning sickness. As I grew bigger, I wondered what life would be like without children in the house. I knew this was only baby 13 (I'd been told there was only one in there, a little boy) but I was used to having kids now, and didn't want that to end.
 
I was in the middle of making dinner, when I heard shouting coming from the girls.
"GOD HAL. Look, if he doesn't want me, stop forcing the issue K?"
"Ann, I was only trying to help you a little bit."
"Well, I don't NEED your help Hal. I can manage on my own. I'm a big girl."
 
And with that she walked off. And Hallie pulled this delightful face.
 
 
"Mum, can you tell Ann that she's being an idiot."
""Mmm"
"MUM! Oi, loser. Listen."
"Sorry, Hal. What's up?"
"You're so distant lately mama. It's like you're hardly here. In fact, you are hardly here. You're always out with some random men and then you come back knocked up. What's going on? Are you a prostitute mama?"
 
This definately brought me out of my daydream. I couldn't help but laugh, tears falling from my eyes.
 
"No, Hal. I'm not a prostitute. I'm doing the 100 Baby Challenge."
I laughed, explaining it to her upon which she apologized with a hug saying she was sorry she called me a 'prozzo'.
I just waved her away, before continuing with the dinner.
 
 
Calista wasn't to be found anywhere when I called her for dinner, so I went outside and found her sitting in the bushes crying.
"CALLIE. What's wrong darling?"
"They won't listen to the story. Ferg says he's too busy with homework and the triplets want to spend all the time on their phones. Nobody will listen."
 
In way of answer, I hauled my pregnant ass onto the cold stone floor and smiled.
 
"Begin then Callie because it's cold out here!"
I stuck my tongue out at her and she grinned, dancing around and bringing out a flashlight.
 
 
And I'm not even joking, but that story was actually quite scary.
 
 
And I was extremely hooked. I couldn't help but think that I should of made everybody come outside too to listen. Next time, I would haul their bony bums out here too.
 
 
And then it got scary again.
"Ok, Callie. Bed time darling. Help your mama up."
 
 
Inside in the warm house, Hallie was holding her camera, practising with different portrait shots of Annie. I knew she had a photography exam coming up which was portraiture. Annie and Hallie were so beautiful - they were the perfect candidates for this.
Here's one of the photos that Hal came up with:
 
 
They then decided to add to the wall of photos by creating their own. They reminded me so much of Hadley and Sookie. Despite their little tiffs, the two girls adored each other and got along so well. I did feel a bit sorry for Scott, being left out of this, but then again, he probably didn't want to do girly things.
 
 
Washing my hands before bed, I could sense something outside, so I looked up. But saw nothing.
 
 
"Hmm. That was odd."
 
 
I was happy. I had beautiful children and had proved to many that I didn't need a man to help me through my life. And I had a new one on the way.
 
 
"SCOTT. Can you get away from my mirror. You're gonna break it with your FACE!"
Hallie laughed, while Annie pushed him out the way and rugby tackled him.
 
This made me feel a lot better. Even if they didn't do much together, they were still all lovely with each other, acting like proper siblings. The three of them and Hadley and Sookie were all full siblings, because the Grim Reaper and I were their parents. I wondered if the girls had kept in contact like they said they would. Scott was the middle child of the five. And the only boy. Bless his heart.
 
"SHUT IT ANN. Or i'll break your face."
 
 
I had no idea why, but at 4:40 in the morning, Hallie decided to have a dip in the hot tub while Scott cooked breakfast.
 
 
"Hal. You're gonna wrinkle. Come get waffles."
 
 
"I cannae hear you muppet. I'm relaxing."
"HAL. I'm eating them all."
"Annie, don't be a prick. I'm comiiing."
 
 
After eating, Annie and Scott got ready for school and then went for the bus, whereas Hallie threw her bag over her shoulder and announced she would see them later. Annie couldn't understand what was going on, Hallie had spent an hour doing hair and even applying makeup and changing her clothes at least 10 times, before even leaving their bedroom.
 
 
Sitting on the bench at school was the most nerve-wrecking thing ever.
"Is he going to come?"
 
 
And the he?
Drew Riches.
Local new boy around town that Hallie had a huge crush on. Annie had teased her because Drew wasn't her type at all but Hallie was so happy with him. She decided to finally admit to him her feelings...
 
 
...and it seemed he shared them as he kissed her back.
 
 
Annie snuck out to see what was going on between them but got bombarded by Cruz Martingale. She liked him but for some reason he was always being really horrid to her.
"Cruz. Get lost you loser."
"Annie Moon. Little Annie. Always following your sister around eh? Don't you have your own life."
"YES THANKS. Goodbye Cruz."
 
 
The next morning, while planting my garden, the baby decided to appear.
 
 
Welcome Baby 13
Austin Moon
 
 
He had a similar colour skin to Viridian's children, which is what must happen when his skin colour and a pale one gets together? His red hair was a darker shade of mine and his eyes were Viridian's.

So much drama (Part 2)

 
The girls were getting ready for their prom and the limo was arriving soon. Sookie had a date in the form of Cruz Martingale, and Hadley was also taking someone, but she was being very secretive about it. As I helped them do their hair, I overheard Sookie asking Hadley about her date again.
 
"Why are you always being nosey?"
"I-I'm sorry, I was just asking."
"Well don't."
 
Then she stormed off, into the other room.
I was so confused as to what was wrong with Hadley, but decided to leave it for a bit and let her cool down. They went off to prom in the limo and I sighed, heading into the nursery to teach the tots their skills.

"You're not gonna grow up into a stroppy teenager are you Callie?"
I asked Calista who just looked at me with cute little eyes.
 
 
 
The girls went off to the prom with their dates and hit it off brilliantly. Well, almost brilliantly. Sookie became prom queen and was asked to go steady by Cruz. Of course she said yes! Hadley, on the other hand? She got rejected to dance by her crush - and her date to the prom? A girl called Bella who decided that this 'date' was an actual date and proceeded to snog Hadley.
 
The girls came home and Hadley immediately shut herself away in her room. According to her best friend, Hadley had been crushing on Cruz, but was too faithful to Sookie to say anything about it or do anything. She didn't want to hurt her sister.
 
I'd been offered a free vacation again and this time, decided to take up the offer. Hadley and Sookie were incredibly helpful around the house and the toddlers would be aging up soon enough anyway.
 
But first, the girls decided to finish teaching them their skills. After that was done, both tots were put to bed.
 
 
 
Which they REALLY didn't like.
 
 
 
The next day was chaos.
Scott demanded that all the girls, particularly Hallie were taken to the prisons and kept there. He kept shouting and wouldn't get down off the table.
 
 
Hallie refused to go to prison and played outside instead, running around the place and getting muddy.
 
 
Scott wouldn't stop following Annie around and even jumped in the pool fully clothed. Then he proceeded to splash her constantly.
 
 
Thankfully they both got along a bit better and had a breath holding contest.
 
 
Scott won. Which he gloated about.
 
 
Poor Sookie went to have a shower, only to find that one of the triplets had set a booby-trap and it dyed her hair pink temporarily.
 
 
After that - the twins decided to age everyone up.
 
They went first of course, growing up beautifully.
 
Sookie curled her hair and let it grow out to frame her face. She toned down the lipstick and was happy for once. She realised that someone could love her, despite being different. She developed the dramatic trait.
 
 
Hadley kept her prom hair, which looked beautiful on her. She still hasn't found her true love, not wanting to move on from Cruz, but is happily living with her sister. She became an animal lover, which isn't surprising.
 
 
The triplets went next, Hallie first. Her jet black hair was pulled into a side ponytail which draped around her shoulders. She grew up absolutely beautifully, but was shy.
 
 
Annie also grew up shy and kept her child hair. None of the triplets were identical, but all had the same shaped lips and nose.
 
 
Scott became a savvy sculptor, and loved everything to do with sculpting. He grew up quite handsome and changed his hairstyle a bit, claiming it attracted the ladies.
 
 
The toddlers were next, both of them beautiful with their grandma Calista's hair colour. I was so pleased they got it. Fergal swept his hair over his head with some help from Scott who was a brilliant big brother. He did get the grumpy trait though.
 
 
Calista braided her hair down her shoulders and was very close to Hallie and Annie. Calista became a light sleeper, which is pretty much the opposite to her as a baby.
 
 
And me? Well, I got pregnant with the next batch of children from this man. Viridian Coral.
 
 
I was pretty excited about this pregnancy because of his unique genetics. He had greenish skin and purple hair. His eyes were bright red too which I thought would make for an interesting baby. I was also excited, as I'd found out about a new drug that could give you more than three children. I wanted to try it out, but was nervous about the side effects. What if I couldn't have any more children?
 
I soon realised that this was the man my mother had told me about. He'd had quite a horrible past.
 
He and his wife:
 
 
 had four children, Evangeline, Kelly, Violet and Violaceous. Unfortunately, his wife couldn't give him or herself a fifth child. She decided that they couldn't have any children if they couldn't have a fifth one and decided to kill everyone. The two youngest, Violet and Violaceous were at pre-school but the two elder children, Evangeline and Kelly were at home with their mother when she put petrol on the furniture and set it alight. Kelly managed to crawl out, just after her mother had gone up in flames and she sobbed onto her fathers shoulder about how Evangeline must still be inside. The firemen managed to get the blaze under control, and inside they found Evangeline's charred body underneath her bed. She couldn't be saved.
 
Kelly grew up sad and alone without her sister by her side.
 
 
As the twins, Violet and Violaceous were only toddlers when it happened, they didn't really understand, but grew up realising that they had no sister or mum anymore. They were identical.
