Summer 2017, mini-update
No words to this one (except at the end) because I thought that the pictures told the story on their own.
But there is some necessary background music: “The Great Escape” by Boys Like Girls.

Summer 2017:
Julie Lloyd is 59, William is 58
(Blake Lloyd is 27, Silvia Howell is 26)
“I know I have that book I wanted to show you around here somewhere,” Julie says. She always enjoys a visit from any of her children, especially the ones that live farther away and that she doesn’t get to see as often. But she can tell something is different about Blake and Silvia this weekend. The young woman has been pretty quiet, and the two of them have stayed away from each other since the moment they walked in the house.

Summer 2017:
Zared Smith is 34, Carol is 31, Adam and Ethan are 6, Isabella is 3
(Dee Smith is 4, Baine Austin is 9)
This summer, Carol decides to buy a piano for the house so the kids can practice their music outside of school. Neither Adam nor Ethan really likes music as much as their mom does, but they do like playing a few simple songs on the piano. Isabella loves to listen to her brothers play and can’t wait for the day that she’s big enough to learn how to press the keys.
Counseling Psychology Career
Posted in Downloads on July 20, 2010| 21 Comments »
The career I’ve been working on is now ready for anyone who may be interested in using it in their game. Below are a few screenshots from the game.
The career was cloned from the medical career, but uses its own unique GUID, so it does not replace any other content. It will show up on the computer and in the newspaper randomly among any other Maxis or custom careers. Since there is already a psychology career on MTS (that focuses on criminal psychology), I labeled this one “Counseling Psychology” to differentiate it in case you have the other career installed also.

Summer 2017:
Charlie and Suzie Tang are 58
(Madison Craig and Bryant Smith are 21, George Tang and Catherine Marshall are 19)
Now that the kids are out of the house, Suzie and Charlie find that they have extra space they can use for their own purposes. So Madison’s old room becomes an office for Suzie.

Spring 2017:
Jason Lloyd is 29
(Logan Gates-Watson is 27, Lilly Do is 28, Julie Lloyd is 59)
The sound of video games always fills the office at Newbie Games. Logan has become very good at blocking out the other noises as he focuses on the list of suggested improvements for the game he’s working on. Jason is in the testing phase of the project, so the only thing he’s focused on at his desk is getting past the current level he’s playing.
