hello!! i hope you dont mind me asking but wcif the buildings [im assuming they’re hood deco?] in the background of this post? /post/157220776914/ thanks so much! :)

Hey anon!

I don’t have my game open at the moment and these aren’t listed on my hood deco resource list, so I’m actually not 100% sure, but I think they’re part of this set by CuriousB? (I think at least the orange one is, based on the preview picture). I’ll check next time I have my game open though and update this post!

Some replies!

Still have quite a few more to get around to, but it’s a start. 😀 Paging @blissful-indigo, @holleyberry, @alienpod, @mswn, @littleblondesim, and @kayleigh-83!

Thanks for sharing your experiences. I feel you. Just relocated to Seattle and am living in a micro-studio apartment because rent is absurd here, too. Not quite as bad as NYC and San Francisco, but not much better.

I loved this little tidbit. Thank you for sharing. 🙂

Oh, of course! ❤ Thank you for reading (even though I have an extreme tendency to ramble). Tori, I can only imagine. D: I can only speak for NYC because that’s all I know (aside from college, this is the first time I’d be living on my own – heck, my family’s been in the same apartment since before I was born!) so I really have no idea about the housing/rental market elsewhere. But I’m sure it’s the same in a lot of major cities. It’s the (literal) price we pay for convenience and/or opportunities. :

Can I say I was hoping eventually someone would put all those links in one place 😛

Heheh, much obliged. 😉 I hope I didn’t miss any! I’m waaaaay overdue for updating my resource list, anyway, so this was a good start.

The second one is so gorgeous 😮

Super cuties

Thank you both! ❤ A little Pooklet/Drew randomizer magic goes a long way. 😉 Also (spoiler alert!), but Graham agrees with you, @alienpod. ;D

replied to your photoset “Finally got around to replacing 90% of my hood deco with light-up…”

*heavy breathing*

*puts on lab coat and fetches inhaler* ;D 

Oh my WCIF are those light up hood buildings? I have Aurora Skies ones, but these don’t look like those. Also, do you build your apartments from scratch or can you recommend some for download, I always wanted to play around with apartments, but i don’t like default ones. And let me just say your game is so gorgeous and a huge inspiration!

Hello there! Thank you so much for your kind words! 😀 ❤

The light-up hood deco buildings are by @ousmeo (here, here, here) and @deeleesstuff (here, here, here). You’ve reminded me that I need to update my hood deco resource list with all the cool new goodies that have been released lately! 😀

As for apartment buildings, I haven’t downloaded any in awhile (I try to build all of my lots myself because I enjoy building most of the time :D), but there are some super awesome ones at @simscommunityproject and @ccfreelots (all lots at the aforementioned links are cc-free!). I’m sure there are some other great ones out there that are slipping my mind at the moment, but those are good starting points. 😀 Oh, @slyndseysims definitely has some, too! 🙂

Hope that helps!

To all who left comments…

…regarding toddlers/puppies: 

I would love to respond to each and every one of you, but it would get rather redundant (I’d just be like “ACK! I KNOW! CUTENESS!” over and over again). But I appreciate every single one of your comments – thank you so much for taking the time to leave a note on my silly gameplay posts! And thank you for putting up with my unrestrained excitement re: born-in-game puppies. I promise I won’t spam your dashboards as much next time around… or will I?
