Sunday Post #425: Preparing For All the Spookiness


Welcome to The Sunday Post hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer, where I talk about what is going on in life and the blog, and show you all the bookish things I got that week!


What I've been doing:

I went to Seattle on Monday but it was unfortunately not a fun trip (as in we didn't do anything fun. Lol.) My dad had to get his passport and that's why we went. So we spent our day there doing that... which wasn't a very long day if we include commute time. It takes us like 3 hours to get there and 3 hours to get back, so 😪 But at least we had some nice scenery! Lol.


I had some time off from work this week so I started this book nook kit thing that I've had for a while! When I went to Idaho last week, I saw one of these at a bookstore I went to, but I had to refrain from buying it because I already had one at home. Lol. So that's what inspired me to finally start it. I've made some good progress so far.


I went back to work on Friday and on my way home I picked up a spooky drink from my favorite coffee place and look at how cool it is! It was a blueberry Red Bull and it had edible glitter in it, which you unfortunately can't see that well. But it was good! Lol.


And Duolingo lessons are going slowly but surely. Lol.

What I've been playing:

I played some of my Legacy challenge and my second-generation Sim finally had her baby! There is dad freaking out when she went into labor, and then there she is sitting with the kid in the pool? I've never seen them do this before. Lol. Seems kinda dangerous. Lol.


And then instead of continuing to use the Sims from the Legacy challenge for the Reaper's Rewards event, I decided to make some new Sims and started a new save file specifically for this 😂 And this file is getting crazy! I had one of my Sims go on a date, and the day after the date asked my Sim to get married??? They hadn't even had their first kiss yet!! 😂


Anyway, I said yes 😆 But I drew the line at her wanting to move in a little later that same day 😂 These Sims move fast. Lol.


These are the my two new Sims I'm using for that event. They're siblings and I love how they turned out! This week I was just in the mood to make Sims, especially if they're inspired by the new Life and Death pack that is coming out on Halloween! I am SO excited!


And then I made this Sim yesterday just for fun. I don't have any gameplay in mind for her, but I love how she turned out too!

  1. I've got the Spy x Family series in my library and I've got some students reading it and really enjoying it. I still want to play with Sims, lol. Miss the game and designing the Sims too! Hope you have a good week!
