7d – Doc – Part Five

Kids birthdays were here yet again (I made sure adult’s never aged by taking potions from aspiration points. Assuming this is ok as not technically cheating with codes etc.   They are working hard for their points).

Doc bought Sneezy & Silva a camera for their birthday.  Johanna baked another chocolate cake for them blowing the candles out.

Sneezy decided to go outside to practice with her camera and saw the basketball court instead.   She ditched the camera & went to play basketball.   Both kids headed to school the following morning after the perfect birthday celebrations.    Silva yet again became sick, so Doc checked her before sending to school and realised she had eaten something that give her a sore belly.   Johanna wrote an excuse note and Silva was sent back to bed after taking some medicine.   Silva spent the day relaxing letting the medicine do its job.

7d – Doc – Part Four

Doc got his first house call during his next shift.   Enele Kahananui & Moira Freyes were fine only needing medicine, there was however a third patient which appeared to be an annoying game glitch. 

Both kids found it hard to sleep with the noisy neighbours and thunderstorms outside.  They were often in the parent’s bedroom looking for comfort.  

Doc extremely tired due to lack of sleep with kids, making all the patients unhappy as always diagnosing treatments wrong.   Ever since the glitch with house call, Doc found it hard to get the performance bar to promotion level.   After each shift, he collapsed in bed, before helping with any housework leaving everything to Johanna.  

Johanna had to get out of the house, so she took the family including Doc to the toddler park again.   Silva became sick, so Doc took her home leaving Johanna playing with Sneezy.

7d – Doc – Part Three

Life certainly changed around the house with twin babies.   Both Doc & Johanna attended to the twins together when they started crying sharing responsibility evenly.    Doc became more & more tired at work with lack of sleep at home.    Johanna decided to be a stay-at-home mum, but still missed keeping herself busy at work, so she took the twins shopping and bought herself a laptop.   Johanna thought that while the kids were asleep, she could work from home starting her little business of a self-employed writer.   She already aced school which made her confident that this little business would succeed.    All she had to do now was name it.    Johanna came up with the perfect idea a ‘Mini Doctor Series’ explaining and providing examples of Real-Life Doctor / Patient scenarios.    Obviously, no customer details were published just how the doctor’s managed to juggle work during their long shifts.     Doc & Johanna now had another thing in common which made their marriage stronger.

Doc eventually had a day off during the weekend, so decided to explore the city.   He met people along the way, watching a buster play in the centre (donating some money).    The local vendor opened her food & drink stall. Doc bought a coffee and sat in the park for a while.    During his time in the park he noticed that the busker had no-where to go, so Doc bought him food & drink from the stall and said, ‘no need to pay me back, I enjoyed your performance earlier’.    On the way home Doc found a couple of posters which he thought might be handy for the kid’s bedroom.   He snatched for a closer look back home.   

After his next shift the following day, he realised how much he missed being home with the kids.   He knew that they would eventually have to get a bigger place as the kids grew.   Doc had continued to work, like many of us simmers, paying for bills/food etc.

Between Johanna & Doc working & taking care of the kids, they had little time to themselves for playing.    It wasn’t long before the kid’s birthdays, so Doc bought some small kid’s bed’s as both twins were now outgrowing their bassinette’s.    Johanna made cake for the family to enjoy spending the day together.

Silva is two mins older than Sneezy, so she tends to get their parents attention all the time.   Sneezy however, maybe turning into a tomboy, determined to care for herself (this is my opinion, you decide).

7d – Doc – Part Two

The friendship with Joanna grew stronger and stronger becoming romantically involved.    When doc returned from work one evening, Joanna was already at the flat.  She had some exciting news that she was afraid to share.   Yeah you guess it, she was expecting a little bundle of joy.  Doc was delighted and asked her to move in permanently.   Joanna of course said ‘yes’, deciding to take some odd jobs around the neighbourhood to earn a little more cash to decorate the spare room in a kids/nursery.  

Doc made dinner for Johanna coming home since she is now starting to show her baby bump.   The perfect little family was starting to form.   While Doc was back at work at the Hospital, Johanna decided she would visit (autonomously) taking a seat in the waiting room until Doc had a free moment.    Johanna went for a little walk around the Hospital grounds while waiting, accidently bumping into him.   Doc gave a quick little cuddle and said he wouldn’t be to much longer.    When Doc arrived, he wondered if anything was wrong, Johanna said ‘I’m fine’ but he decided to feel baby just to be sure.

On his next shift, Doc was promoted to Assistance Nurse.   It was a beautiful day outside and since Doc now had a few days off, he was planning a little surprise for Johanna.

Doc took Johanna to Von Estate where they walked around the grounds discussing what she planned for their future.  Doc was raised with the traditions of being married before living together or even sharing the same bed.   As it was now to late he was wondered what everyone would think, especially his parents.    Doc found the perfect spot beside the waterfall, where someone was already playing the piano.   Doc took his chance, proposing there and then which he had planned all along without the scenery.   This was an added bonus.   Johanna was delighted and immediately said ‘Yes’ wanting to elope immediately.   Doc agreed and they both got married.

Don’t normally show video’s but this was to good an opportunity that I actually managed to capture. Please visit my Facebook Page ‘Sims Stories’ to see Video’s.

They both headed home within a few hours, as Johanna was already in her third trimester and was due to give birth anytime. During the night she did indeed start labour so they both headed to the hospital, where the gave birth to twin girls, Silvia & Sneezy.

7d – Doc – Part One

Meet Doc who recently took residency in the city. Doc is a self-absorbed ambitious genius who would love to have a family with a special someone, someday.

A small 2-bedroom flat was for sale which was perfect for Doc. He tapped into his savings going to the local furniture store looking for anything on discount to redecorate his little flat to his own tastes. Think it turned out very well (featured image)

Noticing the noticeboard in the hall, a new advert was just being posted as Doc walked past. Doc went to look, and as luck would have it, the Hospital was looking for a new orderly/porter to assist with general cleaning and transporting of patients between the surgeries and wards. He decided to apply and was accepted starting in 2 days. Doc thought he should start to get to know his neighbours next door, inviting them in for a cuppa. Later that night he heard arguments coming from the apartment and wondered if he perhaps unconsciously caused the rows or if this happened regularly. Doc tried to knock patiently but was ignored.

The next day while waiting for new job to start, Doc visited the library, signing out some skill books. He then headed to the coffee shop for quick bite to eat preparing himself for starting at the Hospital.  Although there isn’t much preparation for cleaning etc, Doc decided that he could maybe explore the Doctor jobs and what qualifications were needed.  On his way home that day, he heard more noises coming from neighbour’s apartment. At that moment, he realised that his neighbour’s will continue being inconsiderate for all the apartments in the block.

Doc attended his first day at work and met Cameron Crisp. Cameron invited Doc to join him at Spice Festival where he would answer any of Doc questions about becoming a doctor. Cameron became good friends with Doc, introducing him to Joanna.

A few weekends later, it was a Singles night in the bar in town. Joanna invited Doc to join her hopefully finding someone special to become acquainted with. During the night Joanna & Doc were finding themselves hanging out together, playing fuse-ball which, they didn’t expect. As their friendship grew Doc provided Joanna with an apartment key.

Doc was promoted to Medical Assistant, so Cameron invited Doc over to his house to celebrate meeting the rest of his family and popping down to pub for a drink.

UPDATE – Dixon Legacy

Hi ReadersIts been a while since I last posted instalments in this story.     Today I realised that Laptop had to be rebuilt losing all my previous files/folders etc.   Unfortunately I will be unable to continue this legacy, for which I greatly apologize.   I can however give a short summary of where this family ended using the Genelogy from my Xbox save.  

I have also taken the plunge to delete this game file from my xbox, starting another story on a different gameply challenge which I have also been playing from all the talented simmers out there.   Again I am deeply sorry this legacy is not continuing but hopefully we all fun with this new story instead.  

G3 Dixon – Part Nineteen (Final)

Everyone claimed their own bedrooms in the new house and checked out the pool in the backyard.   The garage was converted into a laundry and working area for the handiness/jungle tables, so Gracie could continue with her archeology stuff.   Only one side of the house had been furnished with no access to the rest.    When all completed, I will give you a house tour.

Freya made a new pal, Genji on her day off work heading out in the town.    Her keyboard skills are slowly progressing when she had some spare time.

The new house started attracting all the local vampires and eventually one managed to gain access at around 4:52am on Sat Morning.  Salma Mandir woke up Eleanor and successfully gained blood to cure her hunger without Eleanor realizing what was happening.

Later that day, Gracie headed to the jungle to find more artifacts now that she was skilled on how to care of herself.   When she returned home, Eleanor passed away.   Freya still headed to work at 4pm but only managed to complete half of her tasks since she was grieving.   It was maybe a bad idea, but at the time she thought it would help.

End of Generation Three, Thank you for reading. If you like the story so far, stick around for the next generation being posted very soon.

G3 Dixon – Part Eighteen

Harrison remembered the day he went out with Aditya heading back to the museum to comfort his grief.   He followed the same trail, viewing all the same pictures as they did together once before, changing the meaning of the paintings to something more personal.

The council builders where in the area having a look at Eleanor’s land.   Of course, she wondered why?  She owned this house and the surrounding area.    Eleanor went to ask what’s going on and discovered that they were concerned about the structure below.  Their client had water problems, and the council believed that there could be a burst water main directly below her house.   Eleanor unsure what to do next, immediately phoned Harrison, hoping he might have an answer.   He didn’t so she decided to call Freya, being the oldest, what her thoughts were.    Freya didn’t like the idea that house could possibly collapse on top of her one day.   The council were offering to fix the problem, by bulldozing her house and rebuilding a completely different design of anything she wanted.    This meant the family had no-where to live for a short while, so they visited gym’s, café’s, libraries’ etc. to shower, eat and so on.    Meanwhile Eleanor found blueprints (EA origin ID: simvention) of a fabulous house (BaseGame Family Mansion), that she knew she would not be able to furnish completely straight away.   She had kept all her belongings and appliances, so using her remaining funds done the best she could adapting the interior of this beautiful mansion.

G3 Dixon – Part Seventeen

Everyone started their new year continuing with their usual routines.   Party days were now over.    Eleanor decided that she would like to retire, as everyday when she came home she went straight to bed exhausted.

Freya’s birthday was forgotten yet again ageing into a young adult.   She had a little money saved up and seen someone selling an old keyboard.    So, she bought herself her own present and took up a hobby learning to play it.     I’m starting to get the impression that Freya is slowing getting neglected, which is sad.   Hopefully this changes further in the story.

Freya learning Keyboard

Founders day approached again and before anyone could participate, Aditya suddenly woke up and collapsed.  To be honest, I thought this may have happened sooner when he was reminiscing with the kids and Eleanor.    As usual everyone came to see if he was ok, but when they saw Grim appear, they knew what had happened.    No-one was in the mood for celebrating Founders Day so the whole holiday was a flop this year.    Eleanor once again went to the graveyard to her respects to the past generation’s and make Aditya comfortable among the rest of the family.

G3 Dixon – Part Sixteen

Harrison birthday was now upon us and as expected, he wanted to be a painter.   Although this was not his final career path, his life ambition is to be the best artist, making a little extra money.  The celebrations continued all day making everyone extremely happy.

The following day it was New Years Eve, so once again the party drinks came out and everyone celebrated once again gathering around the television for the midnight countdown.  It was only Harrison and Gracie who made resolutions, with Gracie managing to fulfil hers.   Harrison wasn’t bothered that he didn’t achieve his resolution, as he was in the minority of us all.   Think about it, how many resolutions have you made in the past that hasn’t come true? By February, those good intentions slowly disappear.
