Sunday Post #495: Stressing and Destressing

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:

Just another stressful week of work 🥴 Aside from that, I read a bunch, played Sims 4, and yesterday I was very social and went out to breakfast and a library sale with my cousin, and in the evening I went out to dinner with my brothers and one of my brother's girlfriend. It was so fun!

What I've been watching:

The live trial I was watching unexpectedly ended on Thursday! The defense didn't even present a case! I know this is strategic, but I always find it wild when this happens. Lol. Closing arguments are on Monday and then the jury will deliberate, but otherwise, my afternoons are now free! Lol. I enjoy watching live trials though.

What I've been playing:

And the craziness continues in this save. This week, the surprise-ish baby was born! I then moved the baby into my household, and it somehow spawned into the storage room in the basement. Wth 😭😂

 

I also gave my main Sim, Daisy, a mini farm, since she's a rancher. And here she is with her daughter. So cute!

 

She then went out on a date with this guy she met a little bit ago, and they hit it off! So much so that they had their first woohoo in a bush 😆

 

And unfortunately, the immortal grandma died! 😭 I was not expecting this. Even worse, she died feeling stressed from work 😭 I feel SO bad.

 

And to make things worse, my Sim Daisy was abducted by aliens AGAIN right at that time 😭

 

This game is insane 😂 I was SO sad that Evelyn passed away, I was actually on this screen below for quite some time contemplating if I wanted her to be reborn. I ended up not doing it, but now I'm second-guessing myself and I think I do want to do it. Wouldn't it be cool if the daughter of the Grim Reaper just kept getting reborn? Lol. Anyway, I might do this later today when I play.

 

Also, Daisy aged up into an adult, her boyfriend met her daughter, and her daughter aged up too!

 

She then got eloped in the freaking storage room in the basement (I didn't do this, I swear! Lol), he moved in, and now she is pregnant!

 

I gave the new Sims a makeover and I really like how they turned out!

 

I am still having a lot of fun in this save even though the Rewards Event ended weeks ago. Lol.

Nail art of the week:

Some glow-in-the-dark polish this week. It's so strong that it glows for a while after I come in from outside! It's insane!

And a bunch of books from the library! Tbh I don't even know if I'll get to The Martian, but I saw it at the library and I grabbed it 😆
