I have no resolutions for 2013 (I won't keep them anyway) and no pretty pictures filled with wishes.
This has been a year of contradiction--a year of change. The path I have walked has been on shifting sands. In fact, change was the only constant for me. Things I believed were in my control, things I became accustomed to over the years slipped away.

I can't do much to contribute anymore to our Sims 2 world and it has
been a long time since I recolored anything but I do have three items I
thought I'd share. I created these for Beth to use in the gorgeous lot
she created for Duff. My simple contribution.
I spent
the better part of this afternoon doing these because, for some odd
reason, that sepia painting would not save as black thewyndhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09476656359810192923noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4344488411895334035.post-57764597014824148042012-06-25T10:38:00.000-07:002019-01-04T15:30:32.409-08:00Not That I'm Counting or Anything<!-- Begin of mycountdown.org script --> Summer Holiday Countdown <!-- End of mycountdown.org script -->thewyndhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09476656359810192923noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4344488411895334035.post-82873831986559313182012-06-06T15:31:00.004-07:002019-01-04T15:30:33.433-08:00Full Circle - Story Update
This chapter is the last in this story arc, season, whatever label you want to give it. It has been written for awhile but getting shots was a struggle. I couldn't do it, not having the old lots anymore and not having access to the new ones, so Beth bore the brunt of that task and as usual made it a cinematic work of art.

It is difficult to manage with multiple blogs that intersect - so much so that even we have a hard time keeping track. And quite frankly, they are old and long and confusing to follow if you are a new reader.

There isn't a New Year's resolution I can't break. This year, as I reflect on it, I would rather look forward with hope than to try to do over what didn't go right in 2011. Resolving to 'get over' something that caused so much damage may not happen. Perhaps it diminishes over time but never truly goes away. Instead of fighting it, I embrace it and look forward with hope.

As with all living things, the characters in one's head grow, evolve, change. Many times we try to put those physical characteristics in a tangible thing - a Sim for example. If I had known back in 2005 how to more accurately create what I saw in my head, I wonder how he would have turned out. Not that I would remake him; I wouldn't. Plus he manages to evolve on his own physically.

It is easy to lament what we don't have or what we want and can't have. Today I was reminded of what is truly important - that which we have been blessed with in our lives.

I have to admit at first I didn't realize Rob had a floating glass hovering above him. Thankfully I caught it in time. Below we have a bartender who clearly heard something that surprised him. If you want to know what, go check out the update.
As always, a collaboration.

The shots might be dark. I gave up trying to finesse them, spent far too much time on what should have been a slam/dunk and made myself sick (literally) trying to see what I was doing. The lot was packaged with snow on the ground and it would not go away. I worked around it. I hope.
As always, a collaboration with Beth. Short, not so sweet update.

I took some pictures and realized just how rusty I am at this. The good thing was that I limited my use of pose boxes to a few (primarily since I could not remember my old standards and didn't want to hunt for the perfect pose). I decorated a set. Minimally but no one cares about that but me.

So when I made a painting for Beth's new house with Cooper and looked at it in a test lot, I decided to finish decorating a couple of lots I started way back when my game was stable and I had a neighborhood. One of those lots is Dani's.

I am as baffled as she is right now about many things. Dad is hanging on although the clots in his lungs are still life-threatening, I am racking up miles on a rental car and am on a first name basis with the guy at the toll booth. I should get a discount on the bridge toll I believe.
I am picking away at the next update when I can. It is a welcomed distraction from RL.

Thought I would post a status update since it has been
awhile. I am slowly catching up with the stories I follow via Google Reader. I
promise to leave a footprint on each of these very soon.
Writing is coming along nicely. I set aside one story to
focus on another that took off like wildfire. Hoping to have that first draft
completed before the end of August.
