previous update
The election results are in, thank you to all who voted! The winner by a landslide was …. *drumroll* …
Lucy London!
So in 2021, I will be building a Library, and I will upload it to share on Tumblr.
Lucy thanks everyone for their support and for those that believed in her mission.
***
Notes: Thank you everyone for voting! Etienne and Dave both tied for losing, which I was surprised by! I imagine they’ll both run again in the future, along with Paige Bowen.
It’s time for a new Mayor of Millwood and surrounding Metro area!
Unlike in past years where I made the lot for my personal game, this time I’m sharing it! I will post the lot on my tumblr when it’s done along with a tour. I intend to get it created sometime in the upcoming year, I don’t have a time frame.
Voting is at the bottom of the post!
The Candidates:
Etienne Bernard
Platform: Art Museum
Etienne Bernard is a native from France; he moved to Washington seven years prior to be with his now wife, Violet-Adele. Together they have one daughter, Noémie, and they live in downtown South Port. He is an architect for the city.
Etienne vows to bring culture to South Port with an Art Museum, filled with art from different countries and eras. It’s sure to enrich the lives of all citizens.
Lucy London
Platform: Library
Lucy London is a retired Principal from the local elementary school, Longfellow, where she worked for over twenty years. Her husband, Cole London, a second-generation Lawyer was previously the Mayor a decade ago. Lucy lives on Audubon Shores island with her husband, and together they have three adult children, Alice, Milo, and Itzel.
Lucy promises to build a prestigious library which would include a children’s section and the building would have inviting, natural light.
Dave Brewer
Platform: Brewery
Dave Brewer is a North Albany native, married to Alicia, together they live in Millwood with their two sons, Percy and Elliot. During the day, Dave works in Intelligence and graduated from Eastborough University with High Honors.
Dave would like to bring a Brewery to the downtown, with the main focus being patio dining with landscaping that is welcoming for long conversations.

Notes: Exactly two years ago on this day, I posted my Round 10 summary… I have finally finished the eternal round 11. As I mentioned previously, the Browning family got skipped, but I’m just bumping them to the top of this round.
Caitlyn has breakups in the last two rounds, hopefully she finds someone to stick this upcoming round.
Thank you to everyone who has commented, liked, and read my posts here and on tumblr, you keep me encouraged to keep posting and also playing, just like many of your own hoods and photos have done the same. Long live TS2!
Here’s to hoping that this next round doesn’t take a lifetime.

Notes: I will say that I failed a bit with my ROS’ last round, I forgot about a few of them. Oops. Here’s hoping I do better this time around. I’ll roll on the routine doctor visit when I get to that household, so I don’t know the outcome of that yet, hoping that it’s not bad news. Probably the most curious about the friends with benefits, because it could be a fun twist, and a bit of drama.
Here’s hoping there are no unexpected deaths, as I have a death a year for the next four years in the game. Kind of sad about a few of them.
Thanks to all that read and those that comment, your notes always bring a smile to my face, and mean a lot to me!
On to the next round! 😀
I didn’t want to sneak off without some words, was going to add it to this weeks update, but alas, there isn’t going to be one. Heading east for my sister’s wedding, have vacation, summer activities, company, and flooding damage to repair, so I’m taking a short break from the sims. I’ll be around on Twitter and goodreads when I can, just going to focus the bit of free time I have on some other creative energies that I’ve been neglecting (littlest wants a knit dolly, I have a book that’s three chapters shy from another round of edits), and get out to enjoy the sunshine while we have it. I would guess in 3-5 weeks I’ll be back, could be sooner if my basement gets recarpeted, and drywall put back up, just isn’t a cozy environment since the flooding.
I will see you and your sims again shortly! xox
