4t3 Conversion Dk-sims Family Portraits

~ S U M M E R  ~ “End of summer means lots of hard work in the garden for me. Gardening is so therapeutic but I know with school starting up this fall it’s gonna be a lot harder to spend time out here. Trying to get everything ready for harvest time! Can’t wait!”   

Decorating the little cottage by the beach for a florist named Alissa​ 🌺

“Baking day for a church potluck! Crossing fingers it turns out!”

So sad because Gshade worked 100% better than reshade ever did for me.

After seeing the rest of the story I get it now (no it’s not malware that infects your computer and steals your credit card, but rather deletes outside add ons and force restarts your computer if those are found. And that forced restart is what’s considered malicious).

Im disappointed in how the gshade dev handled the situation and personally am going to give reshade another try. I don’t like the idea of anyone having the power to add potentially damaging code to a program I use for my side hobby.

Heads up hoes; the GShade dev has gone off the fucking rails and turned the damn program into malware. If you're using it for The Sims, FFXIV, Guild Wars 2, etc, it's a good time to uninstall it, after this recent update.

If the program detects it has been modified in any sort of way, it reboots your PC.

Mason’s Home Updates

Today I’m sharing some home updates. My sweet friend Becca who I visited at the blogging conference is an interior designer and she helped us pick paint colors, and her husband and mine came and tore up walls, put in new floors, and put up trim and paint. I love the new black doors, white trim and finally white windows.    Here are some before and afters!  The Before of the entryway in one word was: Dark! 

I’m so in love with the after. The bench was an antique store find, and I love the half shiplap, half painted walls Becca helped us with. I love all the flowers in this space and it’s so functional for our needs.

Here’s the before of the living room. Can you tell that we bought this house from some elder sims? But now I love how light and bright it is. The fireplace is my favorite and I love how now the center of our home feels so peaceful and inviting. We have also finished the laundry room and downstairs bathroom, so all that’s left is the kitchen/dinning area. But I think the next space I’ll be sharing is my office make over. (Or cute pictures of our animal friends! Speaking of Bella is being her normal self making a mess and photobombing these living room photos!) 

Hope you enjoyed these photos! More to come soon! 

Blown away by the beautiful world of Rosewood Park by @gruesim. Fell in love with this little cottage that has a big back garden overlooking the sea and had to start decorating.

Hylewood Round 1 - Atwood

Part Five

We left off with Sarah at the beginning of her pregnancy, the girls enjoying their summer break and William working on his career. To further his career William invited over local Law Enforcement Officer Ben Johnson and his wife Kate (ironically not pictured here but she is the local photographer you'll see later) for dinner.

The girls really just worked on their skills. Charlotte and Sarah did some painting and Jessica worked on her piano (The Atwoods are the wealthiest family on the Island and I figure they would want their girls to be a bit of over achiever proper ladies)

Soon enough it was time. William and Jessica had a good freak out.

Then the Doctor was called, and also the repair man to fix the dishwasher, while we have a baby in the kitchen because sims.

Welcome to the family Alexander Atwood! (Not sure if I'll stick with the A-Z naming for rotations but Alexander just seemed to fit).

I think William was after all quite glad to have a son and despite his early reservations was super attentive to the new baby.

Time to end their round by posing for a nice picture with Kate Johnson.

This little cutie made my day today! For our English project I asked students to write on someone inspirational. Most picked presidents or Astronauts but not Sofia. I was blown away to find she picked me! Moments like this are what make teaching so worth it, when you realize you are impacting a child’s life and future.

Thanks to @lumospixels for sending me her lovely Sofia. I love following her IG and it was a privilege to collab with her. Plus, just look at this cutie! And thanks to Frankie for the collab challenges!
