Clean-up time.

WARNING sorry this post is kind of on the boring side, I considered just skipping posting about these days but I wanted to keep track of the lot value and document my no more than three actions a day. Feel free to skim or skip this posting.

Assuming of course anyone is actually following my story.

Wednesday

Since she had gone to bed so late the night before Alice slept in until 10 in the morning. She spent two hours working on the bramble bushes before stopping for lunch and then she headed down to the gym for a shower. She had decided to try and clear the area around the benches first. She was quite pleased with the progress she made.



As an added bonus to the cleaning up she found some various items that amounted to 20 simoleons when she took them to the pawnshop to trade in.

After the shower she spent a bit of time on the treadmill before heading to work. After work she harvested some fruit from the apple and lime trees in the park. When she finally arrived back home she went fishing even though she was almost asleep on her feet.



Simmers notes:
Action 1 was to work out, this simulates the bramble removal. For every half hour she works out I am removing one bramble bush. If you have ever had to remove a bramble bush you know that it is hard work and will leave you dirty and sweaty. Bramble bushes sell for 5 simoleons. This will give her more money in her pocket but it will lower the property value (lol glad that is not the case IRL) Her second action was to take a shower. Third was harvesting fruit.

Thursday

Alice got caught up in her bramble pulling and there wasn't enough time for a shower before work so she planned to take one after work. However after work she went to the park to cook some hot dogs and while at the park she found an apple seed and picked it up. She never even thought to go to the gym.



Simmers Notes: Actions for day workout, sell fish, pickup seed

Friday

Alice started the day by planting the apple seed she had found. After a long morning of tearing out bramble bushes she headed to the gym for a desperately needed shower before work. She was both looking forward to and dreading the weekend. With work she had little time to do anything other than working on the bramble bushes. But work also provided toilet facilities and a meal every day.



Simmers Notes: Actions; plant seed, workout, shower.

That night Alice thinks about what she is going to buy for her modest little lot. A grill maybe? The cheapest she has seen is $150. She would love to have a little refrigerator. In clearing the bramble she found she had hookups for both water and electricity. The cheapest fridge she could find was $375. Alice toyed with the idea of a shower but at a whopping $425 Alice decides the gym will have to be ok for a while longer. It would also be nice to have a toilet on the property. She can get a bargain john for 250.

Stayed tune to see what Alice spends her hard earned money on.
