NEW SIMBLR ALERT
Tumblr media
Sul Sul! Hello
Dear readers, It's with great joy and enthusiasm that I make my first post in this space.
My name is Ellie, a young girl of twenty-one years who is passionate about the universe of The Sims; if I had one last wish, it would be to spend hours upon hours creating stories with my Sims. My passion in the game is the Decades Challenge, so I decided to create my own challenge and share my story here.
I must confess that I am new to the simblr world; I have never had a simblr, and I have never managed one. This is my first (I am so excited)! Therefore, I am still learning how everything works here. Additionally, English is not my first language, and I fiercely struggle with English grammar. So, there may be some strange words and errors; please bear with me <3.
I have a very interesting and exciting story to share. I can't wait for you to meet the characters. I have spent countless hours dedicated to each member of the founding family, shaping their personalities, exploring their fears, dreams, and ambitions. Each character is unique, with their own journey and contribution to the story that I am eager to share with you.
Tumblr media
I'm looking for other active players of the Decades Challenge <3 I already consider all of you my BESTIES.

The children shook in their stockings when their father approached, seeking their permission to invite his friend into the manor. They couldn’t believe it. For the past few years, their home had been a sanctuary limited to only two guests: Paul and Elaine's physician. The proposal of introducing someone new, particularly a "lady friend" of their father's, stirred a whirlwind of emotions within his children.
Edmund sensed their initial apprehension. They had been isolated for so long, cocooned within the walls of the manor. The idea of accommodating an outsider in the comfort of their own home felt both exhilarating and unsettling. In the end, they did agree. Cecily, Josiah, and Elaine did, at least. In truth, they wanted to become acquainted with the lady ever since learning of their father's frequent outings with her.
The three youngest children peered out from behind the arch of the door, eager to catch a glimpse of their father and his companion as they spoke quietly upon their arrival in the foyer. 
Elaine was the first out, running straight into her father’s expecting arms. Meanwhile, Cecily and Josiah focused their attention on her. Josiah, ever the blunt one, took it upon himself to inform their guest of his father’s zealous cleaning spree in preparation for her visit, only to find the floors still lacking in cleanliness. Simultaneously, Cecily warmly welcomed their new guest, offering to be her guide through the expansive manor.
Imogene was captivated by the children’s warmth and innocence, their small voices blending in a chorus of curiosity and excitement.

Unnoticed by the bustling gathering in the foyer, Eugene observed silently from his position on the stairs. He sat with a brooding gaze, casting a disapproving eye upon his overly enthusiastic and excessively sharing siblings, as well as his stuttering father. When his gaze fell upon Imogene, a surge of frustration stained his vision red. Was everyone in the house touched by madness? It was a question he had pondered for years, and the resounding answer remained unchanged: Yes.

Little by little, winter faded away, making way for spring. With it came sunny days and bright light. Some afternoons, the women of the village gathered in the tea room at Sophie Longhurst's home, the mayor's wife.

There, the women gathered to enjoy conversations over tea or while embroidering. They discussed their husbands, the recent marriages in the village, and for those with children or the desire to have them, motherhood. Kate and Marissa joked about if they were animals, Kate would be a hen and Marissa a duck. Some ladies, upon hearing their mischievous conversations, whispered about their lack of manners. However, the tone shifted when Marissa's recent attempts to get pregnant were brought up. The topic left the other women scandalized.

Ultimate Decades Challenge: 1390 - 1400
Tumblr media Tumblr media
* TW: This post contains mention of characters who died during pregnancy/childbirth.
The decade began with Terric, our main heir, passing the torch to his son Alfred in 1391 as he succumbed to disease. Luckily, the silk business had already been established and the decade saw prosperity for many of our main households. As the families grew, they began to carve out their own spaces in the world of Windenburg. However, a new century has now dawns and the new heirs wonder if this is really the right place for them?
Marriages [5] 1392 - Theobald and Lucy Brooker 1393 - Fray and Malota Bennet 1393 - Galwin and Runild Bigod 1397 - Alfred and Anne Brooker 1398 - Norman and Mirabel Shaw
Tumblr media
Births [10] 1390 - Eva Clifford 1393 - Raymond Brooker 1384 - Arnold Bigod 1395 - Fulke Brooker, Marion Brooker 1396 - Hawis Bennet, Solomon Bigod 1398 - Anika Shaw 1399 - Genevieve and Philomena Bigod
Deaths [5] 1391 - Terric Brooker (Diphtheria) 1395 - Osanna Shaw (Stone to death) 1397 - Maurice Clifford (Plague), Rose Brooker (Anaphylaxis) 1398 - Winifred Fletcher (Drowned) * Babies that never were [5]: Laurence Clifford, Sybil Brooker, Constance Brooker, Aline Brooker, Regina Bennet

Not going to lie... I love this couple so much. They are very poor and currently live in a single bedroom barn with their two children.

That summer, just a few weeks after his graduation, Harry turned 18 and reached young adulthood. His mental skills clearly outweigh his physical skills, as he is prone to fall or trip even when walking across flat ground. His greatest aspiration right now is to go to Brichester University and do all that he can to be the best student there as well. He’ll be a big fish from a small pond jumping over to a much larger pond, but he looks forward to the challenge.

Meet Joey Billy and Joey Bobby X, twins whom I've affectionately named, "The Bumpkin Brothers." Joey Billy (on the left) is a man of few words. He did the main construction on the house and he's always elbows-deep in some new crafting project. Even though he's not so comfortable around strangers, deep down, he wants to be a father.
Joey Bobby (on the right), has big dreams to be a famous musician. Joey Billy made him a guitar when they were teenagers and he hasn't put it down since! Unlike his brother, he loves to meet new people and isn't shy about playing for them! Hopefully he can gain some admirers, because the country life isn't very fulfilling for a squeamish, music fellow like him.

If we only get this moment, let’s hold onto it.
Shit this is ooold. It looks old! But this was from one of my favourite storylines ever, so here we are anyway. (It was from my decades challenge in 2018 and just filled with drama and angst — which I‘m a slut for — so I can‘t help but love it ❤️)

Decades Challenge Rules Update!!!
Tumblr media
At last, the long-awaited update to the Decades Challenge Rules has arrived! The update includes My Wedding Stories, Werewolves, High School Years, Growing Together, and all Kits released as of 6/1/2023. I have also worked to capture two years’ worth of base game updates - if you notice that there’s something missing from this update, please let me know!
The biggest change is a MASSIVE overhaul to Aging & Time which was required with the introduction of Infants. Later this week I plan to share a spreadsheet which can serve as a time calculator based on the year each of your Sims is born, so be on the lookout for that soon!

The sound of innocent bickering from the two youngest Ambroise children echoed throughout the overgrown yard, amusing the attentive ears of Edmund, who maintained a watchful eye over the playful children. Cecily sat beside her father and observed him in thoughtful silence with a gaze both curious and contemplative. 
Though she’d never been one to shy away from expression, Cecily often found her thoughts speaking louder than her words. She possessed a meticulous nature, in which she preferred carefully weaving her words into coherent thoughts before they were vocalized—a trait notably distinct from her unrestrained siblings. Eugene, driven by an impulsive desire to articulate every mean thought, seemed driven by a need to release his critical opinions from his mind as swiftly as they entered. Josiah, on the other hand, remained indifferent to how others perceived him, prioritizing his own understanding above all else—an attribute that irked those around him, particularly his reluctance to repeat or rephrase. Once spoken, his words stood no chance of being altered or corrected—something Elaine had picked up on. “Think before you speak, Elaine,” Cecily said at least twice a day in response to improper sentences like, “When I’m old, I’ll do a bakery and plant pies” and unreasonable questions that follow such as, “Why can’t I plant pies?”.
Similar to improper conversational etiquette, Cecily held a very low tolerance for stuttering and mumbling. It was like chalk grating a pristine slate to her ears. At her young age, she knew she preferred momentary silence in thought as opposed to stutters from faltering lips and vacant minds. And so she sat, dedicating time to piece her thoughts and curiosities together into a narrative that reflected her intentions precisely.
“Father,” she began, “may I ask you something?”
Edmund, attuned to the gravity of her tone, turned his complete attention to his daughter. Carefully, he said, “You can ask me anything.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"I was thinking about your lady friend," she confessed. "How did you come to know her?"
Though he had anticipated this very question—wondering which one of his eldest children would broach the subject first—he resented it just as much. There’d been a time early on in his reconnection with Imogene where he had considered sitting his children down, offering them insight into her presence in his life, and disclosing his entire history with her. Yet, he had balked at the notion, second guessing the necessity of such a conversation. If she were merely a friend and there were no further intentions, then perhaps there was no need for an "explanation"... or so he had attempted to convince himself.
“I knew her when I was a young boy… just before meeting your mother. Imogene was… a part of my past.” 
He chose his words carefully. Cecily appreciated that, but it wasn’t enough. She pressed, “Did you love her? Imogene?”
Edmund’s shoulders sagged as he released a sigh before admitting honestly, “Yes, I did.”
He always thought discussing his past with Imogene to his children would stump him, and he’d be a sputtering lying fool. Yet, in that moment, he felt no such indulgence. The admission flowed with an unexpected ease—almost relieving.
A thoughtful pause lingered between them before Cecily ventured further, her voice barely above a whisper, "Did you love her more than my mother?"
He stared ahead. “No.” His response was swift and concrete. “Rosalyn—your mother… holds a place in my heart no one can surpass.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Cecily was relentless. “Do you still love Imogene?”
“No.” It sounded so simple. 
“Could you love her again?”
He returned his attention to his daughter—her wide eyes void of resentment or detest. “Cecily–”
“I don’t think Mother would be upset with you for loving her again. She would want you to be happy.”
Exhaling softly, Edmund carefully watched Cecily—a reflection of her mother in both demeanor and insight. “I am happy,” he expressed while looking at her side profile, her gaze now fixed ahead. “I’m happy. You four make me happy.”
She shrugged. “You could be happier.”
Cecily had no intention of shoving her father into the arms of any woman, but she wasn’t blind. She’d observed their interactions keenly—a bit foolish if she were to admit. She simply couldn’t imagine someone making her stutter and blush the way her father and Imogene did when in each other's presence. She knew she needed to make it clear to her father that if he decided not to pursue a relationship with the woman, it’d be his sole decision and not one influenced by herself and her siblings… (Addressing Eugene's bitterness would be a concern for another time, should it arise).
While she lacked deep perception of her mother, her memories painted a portrait of a woman akin to an angel. Cecily couldn’t imagine her mother being resentful of her father for seeking love after years spent in mourning.
Edmund, who prided himself on believing he possessed a more intimate understanding of Rosalyn than perhaps anyone else in the world, acknowledged that his daughter's insights held truth in more ways than one.

Beginning of 1704! Camille is pregnant again. Do we finally get our cute little baby girl?
Also the annual taxes needed to be paid.. but the household fund was more than empty. They had to take a huge loan to pay the taxes. Now it's time to come up with a plan to get the family buisness on the farm going. They soon have five hungry mouths to feed. Anfang 1704: Camille ist wieder schwanger. Kriegen wir endlich unser Baby-Mädchen? Außerdem steht die jährliche Steuerabgabe bevor und die Haushaltskasse war mehr als leer. Die Familie Mercier musste einen großen Lohn aufnehmen, um nicht vom königlichen Steuereintreiber komplett in den Ruin getrieben zu werden. Es wird höchste Zeit, dass Camille & Raphael einen Weg finden, das Familien-Business zum Laufen zu kriegen. Immerhin haben sie bald 5 hungrige Mäuler zu füttern.
