Weekend Trip, 2015

Lovar, spring, 2015
Julio is 48, Rebecca is 45, Abel and Amanda are 20, Ana Rayne is 11; (Myra Shazad is 21)

"It's rather large..." Rebecca said as she stared up at the large structure.

"I know, but isn't it great? I never win anything, but I won this in the office raffle."

ROS: 2014-2015

Here are the ROS for the next round

Press Charges, 2013

Remar, summer, 2013
Benjamin Endeavor and Rashid Cunningham are 27, Rojo Herendez is 21

Benjamin's summer started off great. He was promoted on the basketball team and the newspapers referred to him as a superstar, he was the face of Man Smell Deodorant and his pay increase and endorsements meant that he could afford a bigger and better place. 

Physical Stamina, 2012

Remar, summer, 2012
Johan is 51, Jadhira is 50, Myra and Naraj are 17, Udar is 8

Now that the twins were about to start their senior year, Johan noticed the change even more. He should have expected it.

ROS: 2012-2013

Opps, I'm late in posting this, so sorry ^_^ but good news, this is a much better ROS for Apple Valley :)

ROS for the 2012-2013 rotation

• Charity strikes-donate $700 to charity-Interesting. I might give this simmie the generous trait as a result of this ROS.
• Facing the Fear-fulfill biggest fear-Not a fan at all, this is so unfortunate for this family.
• Sign music deal, $8000 bonus, perform 8 days, visit vacation lot, get double tips-Very exciting, can't wait for this to play out, but now I need to make more careers and set up new lots as a result.
• Win the lottery, $400000-This family isn't struggling, but the money is more than welcomed. I'll have to see how they will spend it.
• Cheapstake, attempt to leave on bill-I know just how to write this one up, which should be funny.

ROS Simyear 2010-2011

This is the ROS round of death. Ugh, three of the five ROS deal with death, so expect a very sad time in Apple Valley.

ROS for the 2010-2011 rotation

• Fatal disease Not looking forward to this one. This one is perhaps the reason why I have been avoiding starting this round.
• Pursue a relationship with the Sim you're most attracted to. This should be interesting, it fits with this sim's character, but I wonder what the consequences will be.
• Fire! Again? Really?
• Death by Fire Not a fan, but it will open up for some interesting consequences and mysteries
• Death by starvation Hate this ROS. How does one die of starvation? Might have to reword this, but there will still be a death.

"Rounds" and ROS Simyear 2008-2009

For those who have been following Apple Valley for a while, you may realize that time moves so slowly :) It's killing me as well watching other bloggers zip through their generations while mine seem stuck. To make time move a bit faster, but not too much faster, which was the whole reason of blogging in this new style, I'm switching to 2-year rounds, but non-rounds :P


I'm splitting my families to be rotated every two simyears, but we'll see from them each simyear via other families updates and a few mini-updates thrown in for good measure. It's a work in progress, so we'll see how much I like it and how long it stays around.

ROS for the 2008-2009 rotation

• Re-roll your turn-ons, eeek, hope you still like your partner!...This sound be interesting
• Mid-Life Crisis: Change your aspiration and lifetime want! It makes perfect sense for this sim since they are approaching "mid-life"
• Fire! Not the best, I just redecorated :(
• Signed modeling deal, $12000 bonus This family needs the money and it evokes some of their past modeling  as well.
