 Carly, Day 51, February 20, 2026

Carly does really go to the gym almost everyday. I don't follow her to school anymore and so she comes home either stressed, angry, or embarrassed, and working out at the gym does help with all of those things. It is fall and I was hoping to get to the Spooky Holiday tonight, but it will be tomorrow. So this post is all various pictures from the gym. 

This is one of her new looks and she is relieving some stress on the punching bag.




And these two gym warriors are working hard on the treadmills.



But Honey was upset when she missed spin class.



Carly told Irene a ghost story and scared her.


And then Irene told Carly she wouldn't be in class soon because of her upcoming cooking competition.


Carly asked Paolo to show off his tattoos. She was disappointed when there weren't some in spots she couldn't see - just the arm tattoo. 


And I was surprised Honey was not aghast at what she saw in the locker room. Honey, don't look! 

There are no doors on those showers and I've been too lazy to change the bathroom.

Carly Royal Envoy Quest

 Day 48

Carly was greeted tonight by the royal envoy showing up at her house. That envoy is getting pretty friendly just starting a fire outside.


She started doing some quests for her which took her to playing chess at the park in Willow Creek. But before she could complete the chess task, Cebolla called and invited her to come to her house. Carly accepted and brought the rest of the crew, which triggered a meeting of the Fun Club. And Carly was hungry so she grilled something. 

This was a house from the gallery for the girls to live in. It's a very cluttered house but I like it. You have this great backyard deck and a pool and hot tub and there are enough bedrooms for everyone. 

And yes, because it was a Fun Club meeting, Thorne came along. 

And then Carly saw this little girl who probably can't get up the stairs just sitting where she last saw her so she had to pick her up to take her in the house. 


And this is the kitchen at the girls' house. I really like this kitchen. Love the blue. 


And then the envoy's quest took her to the museum in Willow Creek. And she saw this handsome fellow on the street - all dressed up for a scout meeting.


And then Carly explored the area for plants or frogs and found the roller skating rink was set up, so she ended her evening getting pretty good at roller skating. 



None of this had anything to do with the quest, but Carly did complete the activities.

Carly's Nordhaven House

 Day 47

Carly's watcher is making a Nordhaven house for her that is too expensive and Carly wanted to just make art all weekend to try to afford it, but something always comes up. But this is the house. It is a work in progress but I have managed to reduce it by about 30,000 simoleons, so it is coming into range. It is from the gallery and is called Inked Inlet Tattoo Studio.

I forgot that I put a big gym on that 50 x 40 lot behind her house but I don't know that she will have time for the gym anyway so I could always knock that down to put someone else's lot there.

The main living area, but still a work in progress and she will bring her refrigerator for the opening in the kitchen and a lot of her kitchen clutter she will bring for the shelves.

The upper floor is the bedroom area and her bed will come with her and probably other stuff from her bedroom and then her plants will be on those balconies and probably getting rid of the furniture out there because I got away from the black theme of the house. Maybe her easel will be out there. Up the ladder from that floor is the rooftop patio. I didn't get a picture of that yet. 

And the entry floor is the business and to the left is the entrance to the home part which still needs decorating. Yes, it is a tattoo studio, but I am still working on the other activities for customers while they wait but there is definitely a stereo for dancing and TV and video games. Maybe a foosball table. Not sure what those empty rooms will be if anything and if they will belong to the business. The artwork throughout the house will be from her own inventory of photos and paintings that she has created.
Starry night in Gibbi Point. Carly tried painting this by reference but it didn't come out good.

Saturday Carly got a call from Rowan about a pre-prom party. She has been declining all of those recently sometimes because she is not sure where the person lives and/or it is just someone she doesn't know that well. But since it was Rowan, she accepted. 

Poor Honey has a wilted flower and is sad. I think Jace is the only one smiling in that whole group. 

Maybe we are all just frustrated because we know there is not going to a be a prom after the pre-prom party. Carly tried cheering Honey up. 

No one ever went in Rowan's apartment. We all just stood out there in the hallway. The girl taking a selfie beside Honey is royalty. She's a teen and I think her name was Aramachi. 

And then there was no prom, so everyone just vanished. Carly made a peculiar plumbird mask finally and wanted to show it to Louis.

Louis: I like that mask.
Carly: I made it myself. 



Louis: You look silly. 
Carly: I need another vacation. I am talking to a fish while wearing a bird mask.

Carly Getting Home From Bake-Off

Carly, Day 46

The getaway sent Carly straight home after clicking OK. And someone was waiting in her yard.

 

Carly: No birthday cards in my mailbox, still a teenager Don. Go home. 

Carly heard that her friend Honey got a new puppy named Maple and she really wanted to meet her so she went over to their house and Maple was nowhere to be found. She took a swim in their pool and came home and this little puppy was waiting for her.


Carly: You must be Maple. I just went to meet you.
Maple: Grrrr. Stranger!

And then Maple vanished. Carly went over the next day and their meeting went much better.


Carly: Hello Maple, see I am not so bad.

And Carly had not had a Fun Club meeting since Lilith joined, so it was a Summer Holiday, so she decided to get the gang together. Of course, a group dance with the new member was needed.



And just like in her own simverse, I think Lilith loves to sing. And Thorne enjoyed the performance.



And Cebolla and Carly sang a duet. 


 

And then apparently both Carly and Cebolla walked in on Thorne in the bathroom. Ooops. 


Carly thinking Cebolla needs to just get out of there like nothing ever happened.

And of course, Jace and Carly sang their little duet. 



And even though Don is a little creepy hanging around Carly's house, he very diligently helped her with her school project at the gym. 


Carly thinking wow, he is actually reading the instructions!

And when Carly got home from the Bake-Off, she thought that Louis might have missed her. 


Carly: Hey Louis! I missed you! I was on vacation. 

Carly: It was a creative camp -- baking!
Louis: Oh, I just figured you were in jail.

The Bake-Off Continues

 Carly was sad that Honey was eliminated but it is still the first day and maybe someone will bake with her at some point. 

Carly sees Tae headed over to the tent and is sure he is going to bake something. He is a foodie after all. 

It appears Tae just got thirsty from all the dancing.

There is free time during the day for the judges and bakers where they can do whatever they want, including games. But Corey, staff is not included in the free time. 

Carly continued baking and checking on whether anyone was maybe cooking in the house area. 
You can see the schedule and clearly it is baking time. And cleaning time Nina.

Carly feels like she needs to interrupt another conversation. 
Cebolla what are you suggesting to sweet Jace? 

Finally someone decided to clean something up, but not the right people.

But Jace did enjoy that Carly was doing so much baking. 
Jace: I wonder why Carly keeps baking treats for me?

And in the evenings, I scheduled a campfire for the judges and bakers, not for you Corey. 

And then it was lights out and bedtime. Maybe things will different on Day 2. 

Day 2

To Carly's surprise, she saw that Cebolla made a smoothie. 
This is actually what I think kept Cebolla in the competition. 

This day is starting out good. Look who actually has dirty plates in his hand.

But then instead of baking, everyone headed over to the house to dance.

And then the announcement came that Tae had been eliminated.

It was anyone's guess, except Cebolla did make that smoothie. There is free time after the morning baking session. But you can see on the schedule, staff is supposed to be cleaning.
Carly: Nina, you are in my seat. 

And the evening campfire. And again, not for staff, but at this point, what difference does it make. When everyone goes to bed, Carly cleans everything up. She went for a swim earlier and never changed back to her clothes.

Day 3

And the next morning, another sim was eliminated. 

Smart thinking making that smootie, Cebolla. And Carly finally got changed into the apron outfit.

Carly: No room for you Corey, go clean something please. 

And Carly wanted to try a new dance she heard about, so she and Cebolla tried out the waltz. I like it.




Corey: It's 5 o'clock somewhere, dude.

And the next day, Carly won. 


Love is in the Air

 Carly, Day 277, October 4, 2026 The first day of Spring arrived and the snow from the day before began melting away. Carly trained Whirlawa...
