Week 2 Continues (Tuesday Onwards)

I finally finished playing Monday for Week 2...yeah, not playing like that again for a long, LONG time. I still have to introduce everyone to the new family, the Reillys. So I guess I'll start with them.


MEET THE REILLY'S

The Patriarch of the family. A fortune sim who dreams of being in the sports hall of fame. Michael is the one who tries to keep the whole family in line, or about as well as he can manage with the siblings he's got.

Patrick Reilly is the only member of the family to have moved out as of yet...but it's not like he really has his own place. Patrick has become the local vicar for Truth and lives in the upstairs apartment for the Church

The local romancer of the family. Quinn's a very outgoing, relaxed kinda guy. Lots of fun to hang around.

A rare shot of Meghan without her glasses and her hair out. She is the only girl in the family and she's also very introverted. Instead of gabbing on the phone like most teenage girls, Meghan prefers taking care of her cat, Miko and tending her lemon tree and tomato plants. She has only managed to make one friend in Truth so far, that being MeShell Bruty who was a part of the welcoming commitee. As of yet, Meghan gives her brothers no cause to worry.

Miko Reilly is the "family" cat...but Quinn refuses to have anything to do with the orange beast. Miko spends majority of her time with Meghan and occasionally enjoys being petted by Michael.

Elle Midlock is Michael's live-in girlfriend. Patrick keeps telling Michael that he'd be quite happy to marry them. Michael usally replies by giving his nosy little brother a noogie and tells him not to get involved. Elle is an artist and a family oriented sim.

I'll save the rest of my update, for when I finish the Seavey-Hamilton house (which I have more than recently began to adore even more). The kids are the cutest things in the world.

Week 2 - Day 1 continues...yeah, I haven't made it past day 1

I can't continue to play day by day like this. It takes waaaaaay tooooooo long! But since I have almost finished the 1st day for everyone, I may go back to household weeks or try 2-3 days per household.

Let's just do a quick update as to what everyone has done so far:
  • Keely-Ann's chilli has been declared the best by Andrea Schlel
  • Andrew Schlel was born (Schlel household/Week 2 Day 1)
  • Breanna Nott-Ross is definetly pregnant. Damien Ross is now on the Crimminal Career Track. No sign of Breanna's look-a-like
  • Tyrone manages to finally go out on a date with Miguela
  • MeShell invites Pedro Hernandez over for dinner to try to work things out. Family adores him. MeShell is not feeling to well and has been throwing up...hmmm....I wonder what that means?
  • Roberto, Felicia and Miguela prepare to give gifts to Pedro for his new place. Miguel is preparing to become a teen. Jose is having fun just being a kid. The family knows nothing of MeShell's relationship with Pedro
  • Nicole Ross has been working and slowly moving up the medical field. Derek has been having a hard time getting in contact with Emmy Kosmokos. At last notice, she had moved into a foster home but has since run away.
  • Olivia is still studying everything she can to make better robots. As of yet, she still hasn't figured out how she got $50,000 but she still has over half of it unused
  • Felica Goodman is preparing for her wedding to Amin Carson. He's doing better at keeping himself dressed while company is over to visit
  • Angelica Umgabi is just about to become Mrs. Andrew Fancey. She has recently found out that he's adopted and with a bit of digging, she has found that his brother actually lives in Truth
  • Max and Matt are skilling their way to the top with the help of Grandpa Brian, the smart milk and the fall skilling bonus. They spend so much time with Grandpa Brian and Grandma Stevie, you'd think their parents Dru and Jace disappeared of the face of the earth. However, they are just busy working their way up the corporate ladder. Grandma Stevie just realized the importance of having a roof over their head when it began to rain in the house
  • Trisha may be expecting but she's still not sure. There has been no throwing up as of yet but her bladder seems to have shrunk to the size of a pea. Trisha and Dal are currently remodeling their home and are having plans of starting an orchard and garden in their large backyard
  • Em has decided to become a foster parent...first kid has already run away from home. Em is worried and even called the police but apparently run-aways are not their jurisdiction. Em is currently working on her own search party, currently made up of Derek Ross and herself.
  • Teneesha Ross and Corey Fancey decided to take in a couple of Dobermans (so far they are the only household with pets and I love these dogs!) named Bibi and Black. Teneesha has gotten a job as a Crimminal Mastermind. Corey is working on become a lawyer
  • A new family has moved into Truth. An Irish family named the Reilly's. The Patriarch of this family is Michael Reilly, a Fortune sim. He has 2 younger brothers Patrick (the new vicar) and Quinn (the new local Romance Sim). There's also a younger sister who's a teen named Meghan. Patrick lives at the new church. Quinn and Meghan live with Michael in an oversized show house that's due for some serious remodelling to make it more liveable
  • Pedro's new house is sweet. It got a pool, a hot tub and lots of space for parties and living. His parents and Miguela came over to visit, bringing gifts. His mom brought him a berry pie, a few snapdragons and a chair. Miguela brought him over a coffee table and a picture of him from when he was a child. His dad brought over a new invention of his....the Clean Bot 3000. Pedro noticed it sparking right away and put checking the machinery out on his list of things to do. However he got a neighbourhood visit from the welcoming comittee, consisting of Michael Reilly, Em Moorehouse and Teneesha Ross. They stayed in the hot tub forever. Pedro got a job has a gamer that pays quite a lot of money. He skilled and everything. He didn't even feed any of his guests but they insisted on staying at his house until like 1 AM. When they left, Pedro noticed an odd stench coming from the first floor and realized the Clean Bot 3000 really needed to be fixed. There were piles of garbage everywhere. Pedro went up to his room, closed the door and decided he would deal with it after a good night's sleep. It didn't look much better in the morning. Pedro cleaned what he could and called for a maid to come over and help. It was embarassing to have the newspaper girl walk by the house, holding her nose and doing a running leap to drop the newspaper and dash as quickly as possible. By the time he got back home from work, the maid had managed to clean quite a bit but there was still along way to go and she had already worked from 10 AM to 5 PM. Pedro was happy with the progess but he wished there was something called a magical cleaning fairy to get it all cleaned before the bugs come.
