Target sim is Ivana Garten

I actually managed to turn Ivana into a werewolf.

The orginal lot was a bit laggy on my system. Ivana needed some money quick, so she started digging for treasure and found a big chest of gold on her first try. Super! She made friends with Andrea and moved her n. Their chemistry wasn’t too high, so Andrea changed her hair colour – Now they’re quite compatible.

I dind’t want Ivana to have a career at all, also her life-time-want was to marry off 6 children. Andrea wanted to be chief of staff – so I got her a job in the medicine career.

I moved them out into a house from Simcastic Designs by Webbymom – 110 Burbia Gated community (eventhough the download says 101BurbiaGatedCommunity.). I fell in love with these Gated Community Houses!

Anyway, so getting the gold garden badge was easy. Ivana just planted, weeded, tended, spayed and harvested a lot.

Eventually Ivana and Andrea got engaged and then married (or at least legally joined or some jargon that EAxis has in the options). It was a roof raiser party.

Balin the were-dog showed up a few nights while Ivana was gardening… then he nibbled her and she turned into a werewolf. I liked that her body skill and fitness increased nightly, but she also experienced some binge eating. So she bought the werewolf cure from the gypsy and 1-2-3, she was no more a lycan.

Funny thong happened at the cooking contest: Andrea won with her spaghetti; Ivana was disgusted that no-one liked her Filet Mignon.

Ivana adopted two children: Lydia and Yvette. These girls also wanted pets, so they got Oros and Soot, who in turn had three kittens. I thought that there can only be 8 sims in total including sims and pets. But I managed to have 9: 4 sims and 5 pets. So the lot became laggy again. Ivana sold all three kittens to her housekeeper.

I had the Garden club pay a visit, but only received a club membership, no perfect score yet. Ivana tried 2 more times to get the perfect garden score… to no avail. So Ivana hired a gardener. I bought her a lot of pretty garden stuff: a fountain, a fish pond, a few statues, garden lights and fences. Ivana talked to all the not-quite-so-happy plants, then invited the Garden Club again. She got her perfect score and a lovely wishing well. Andrea wished for friends (she needed 2 more for a promotion).

The only problem I’m still stuck with is changing Ivana into a Plantsim and thus producing a spore. The girls are almost on their way to Uni. Between Ivana and Andrea they have gone through 2 and a half longer-life aspiration rewards (I forget the name ;-) )

Pics to come when my internet resets after the 1st.
