Hey everyone,
It’s me again, your resident big ball of insecurity/writer/very tired person. I just wanted to say that I’ve just change my next publication date into th 21st of September instead of this Saturday. I’ve come to this decision because the next chapter is a little intense (had to build sets, pictures need rather heavy editing, I have to make poses, etc.). Also there’s the fact that I’m in one of those period where if I’m woken by anything, I can potentially stay awake for hours – just had one of those nights. I had very little sleep and I feel like one of the living dead.
I’m not sure it’ll change the date for the wedding chapter (which is on the 28th), so I haven’t altered that, but I might not be able to get it out by then. Still, the date for guests will remain the same. If I don’t get your sims by this Saturday, I can’t include them, so if you’re on the list and you haven’t yet, I hope you’ll send your sims on over. If I change the date for the wedding chapter, I’m not going to make a post about it, but you can see what’s what on my homepage or on the chapter listing.
Anyway, that’s all from me for now. Boring, I know, but I have to try and stumble my way through some homework before the energy I got from my nap wears off.
Yours sleepily,

Awww I hope you’ll feel better soon! 🙁 <3 That is such a coincidence, as I also woke up around 3 in the morning today and didn't sleep until about five – although, fortunately, this is a very rare occurrence. I really hope that it will be a one time thing for you too and of course don't worry about the chapter – we know you're not a chapter factory and we'll be there whenever you're feeling better and you're in the mood/ready to pop something out 😀 <3
I also wanted to ask you about the two sims I sent you – is everything in its place? Lol, because I was thinking about the amount of cc they came with and I was anxious if you found it all! Whatever they're missing, don't hesitate to ask me – I'll be more than happy to retrieve it (nag if you have to, lol!)
Well, I'm again hoping you'll feel better soon and sending you virtual hugs! <3 <3

It sucks so hard. 🙁 It’s unfortunately a once-a-month thing for me at times. It got a full night’s sleep tonight, not quality sleep, but I’ll take quantity over quality.
I think everything’s perfectly okay with the sims you sent, otherwise I’ll say. 🙂 It’s not so much about the folks who already sent as it is about the ones I haven’t received. So yeah, I’ll say if something’s amiss. So far it’s all looking fine. <3
Hugs to you, too. <3

No worries. We all adore your story. You are juggling a bunch of balls and you should take your time. Your mental and physical health is first. Take care of you and don’t stress the story. I know, easier said than done. I’m just on vacation and stressing my next chapter! But seriously, we’ll be here when the story does post. 🤗❤️

Thank you, Audrey, you’re a total sweetheart. <3 It's important for us to remember that this is a hobby, not a job, and you're right - our wellbeing should come first. I can't create if I don't have the energy.
I know I'll be waiting patiently for more of your story as well, dear. Thank you. <3 :)

Thanks! It is a wonderful hobby that gets your creative juices flowing. It’s mindless, it when we stop enjoying it because it is a burden, then you shut down. So please. Take care of you and we’ll get to have more of your wonderful and fun story. ❤️❤️❤️

This is totally understandable. You do so much for your story, and you want it to be the best it can be. Don’t be hard on yourself, just do it the way you want to. I’m sure it will be wonderful. xo

Thank you Kym. 🙂 I really would rather do the story nicely with cool pictures. It’s always a downer when I feel like I didn’t put in all the effort I could have. I don’t want that for these. 🙂

There’s no way to avoid real life – no matter hard one tries! Take care 🙂
