Welcome! :) On this blog you will find stories, how i play and videos created with The Sims 4, but also a few projects from older game versions can be found in the Archive. The old TS3 stories have their own blogs. Most long going stories have a main page with index of updates.

Check out Simmerville's Youtube channel!

I'm no longer on Tumblr! I refused to give all their 3rd parties unlimited access to my computer. Link still works, but no updates.

The Five Units Challenge - Report 27 - Family Photos Again

Yes! Donna finally redecorated her kitchen! Red happened to be her favourite color.


She upgraded the counters. Added a few shelves for spices and herbal mixtures to clear the counters.

It's still a tiny kitchen, she might consider expanding it a bit, perhaps with a new door to the veggie garden.


- I'm reducing the amount, Sylvia explained. - Would be better if I could grow more plants, but we also got the banana palm and glow fruit trees in the garden, and the herbs in the outdoor kitchen.
- It's fine mom...
- It's not fine, Donna, it's about farm right restrictions!
- This is one of the five units, mom, unless someone chooses farming as their skill, these plants will need to go anyway.


Sylvia had not visited Donna's sister Fiona yet. Donna tried to call Fiona, but got no reply.

- Maybe we shall go, both of us?, Donna suggested.
- Or we could ask your brothers Rudolph and Sammy to check on Fiona? They live in different city quarters, but still they are much closer than we are.

Donna got the feeling that her mom would rather not go to San Myshuno. In fact, Sylvia behaved a little differently.


- You really should add some new family photos on that wall!, Sylvia said.
- Family photos? Can't that wait until August and Olivia grow up?
- Not if you want me to join you! I can call for Dorothy Flemming!

Then it became clear that something was wrong with Sylvia!


She almost fainted at the table, and Donna instructed her to order medicine on the web.


I never saw a sim being cured before, so buying the cure and seeing Sylvia drinking it was a first! I know I have seen those skin marks before, but they probably go away after a day or so, even if not treated, because I never saw a sim get very sick or die from it.


August loved playing with the toys chest. It seems like he is getting better in imagining stuff, good!

A week later, photographer Dorothy Flemming brought her photo studio.


Cheese! August and Olivia in front, Donna and Gerald centered, and Sylvia posing there in the background. If you missed my photo studio tips video on Youtube, click here!


I had to test if pets can join this session, and sure they can! Olivia insisted on carrying Sasha on one of the settings.


Dorothy Flemming is a friend of Sylvia's. She obviously grew into an elder, too, but dyed her hair and tried not to change much. Sylvia really think it would look better if Dorothy could just accept turning grey, she actually looked stranger than ever!


Talking about grey - Gerald got older tonight! He was older than I assumed, but he still looked like he used to, except from hair colour. He used mascara and dyed his beard, all in the name of having a stronger appeal in politics, he claimed...

- A drink, anyone?, he asked, before realizing they don't even own a bar!
- Yes, please, Dorothy Flemming answered in her raspy whiskey voice.

More in a few days.
