Andrea’s next door neighbour Christy has recently found employment as a nanny (which is a really fitting job for a Family Sim) and doesn’t mind working long hours. Just look at her smile!

I totally forgot that I made Ivy bisexual.

They did it. They really did it. Andrea still has a hard time believing it. The tax increase has led to vendors and business owners across Middleground to shut down their businesses and sell the land back to the state (or the highest selling bidder). And then, even she sold. The “Red Diner” was actually the smallest business in Middleground, and as the new tax taxes the land the business stands on and not the size of the business itself, but it just wasn’t feasible for her to keep it running. She now works at the nearby country club as a waitress. It’s nothing exciting, but it pays the bills.

In case you wondered, she didn’t stay the night. Still, Joe is somewhat content. He managed to get over Sandy pretty quick and his job perspectives may look bleak, but he is a real skipjack: he may tumble, but he’ll never be knocked down.
