Goodbye
Hey guys,
I haven't been around for ages, I know. I've been through a pretty big health scare, which pretty much made me lose interest in anything else but doctor appointments and hospital tests, and trying to cope with work in between. Long story short, I thankfully do not have cancer. It's been a pretty rough time between the lump first popping up and getting the test results back, though. It's given me time and the impulse to think about my life and what's important to me right now. If the lump had turned out to be cancerous, it would've been in a really bad place which is generally not associated with good recovery percentages. Shit like that makes you think.
What with everything, I've decide to quit TS2 altogether. While I love the game, it's such a big time hog for me that it doesn't leave me with enough space to work on other things that I've decided are more important: spending time with my loved ones, working on art and writing, seeing some of the world and experiencing new things. I've backed up my savegames and downloads folder just in case, but for now everything's been uninstalled and I'm not expecting to look back anytime soon.
I'd like to thank you all for the great times and fun I've had with my game. This is such an inspiring and creative community, and I'm glad to have been part of it. You guys are Good People. It's just time for me to start living my own life instead of sorting out those of my pixel puppets.
I will leave this journal and its downloads up, in case anyone finds my stuff useful. I won't be replying to comments or PMs on this account anymore though. If anyone really feels the need to get in touch about something, you can reach me on nepheris1985@gmail.com.
So long, and thanks for all the sims.

A Slightly Tipsy Legacy 1.6
Vodka and Whiskey are enjoying winter so far (and the snow days they've been getting off from school), despite the freezing temperatures. The little lake behind the farm has completely frozen over, but Jenever won't let them skate on it for fear that the ice isn't thick enough yet. So they've contented themselves with building angry devil snowmen all over the place.

A Slightly Tipsy Legacy 1.5
Autumn has come to the Tipsy farm, which means that the family will be spending most of their time indoors now instead of outside. To accomodate Jenever's ever-growing family tree, the upstairs of the house has been expanded. Jenever and Sören now have an actual bedroom, as do their sproglets.

A Slightly Tipsy Legacy 1.4
I'm cutting back on the commentary a bit, as I'm not really compos mentis enough to make a whole lot of sense (or try to be funny). So mostly picspam updates for now.
With Jenever busy on the farm, Sören does most of the parenting. How much harder could training a kid be than training some dogs, after all?

More Angler's Cove Progress
Two new houses , a library and a parking lot in between the library and the community center. And some neighbourhood pictures I thought were pretty.

Angler's Cove Progress
Two new houses, one for the open spot next to the Greengrocer's, and one starting to fill in the next block, which will be a more fancy residential area with a community garden in the middle.

A Slightly Tipsy Legacy 1.3
Married life seems to suit Jenever and Sören. Jen doesn't have a TV or other contemporary entertainment, but she does have a truckload of books that she brought along, and they spend most of their evenings reading together. Sören on the sofa, and Jenever in her comfy rocking chair.

A Slightly Tipsy Legacy 1.2
When Sören moved in with Jenever, so did his two dogs: Leffe and Duvel. They are both named after Belgian beers, which will be the naming theme for the Tipsy dogs.
Leffe (pronounced Lef) was originally an Abbey beer, although it's been bought by a commercial brewery. It's brewed in many varieties such as blond, brown, ruby and tripel.
Duvel (Dou-vel, more or less) is the quintessential Belgian strong golden ale , and one of my favourites. Its name means 'devil' in some Dutch dialects, and refers to its high alcoholic content (8,5%) as well as strong flavour.

A Slightly Tipsy Legacy 1.1
The weather is harsh in the small village of Twoflower Lake, with snow covering it for almost 6 months out of the year. The soil is hard and rocky at best, and everything from the icy winds that howl through the forests to the late frosts that nip young seedlings in the bud doesn't so much point towards unsuitable farming circumstances as bash you over the head with a flashing neon sign.
