Ramblings of a Sim Addict

Some may know me as gabesgirl or cpowell or CareBear....well, I am all of those.
I am a stay-at-home mom, with one wonderful little boy and a deep addiction to all things sims!
Oh yes, I almost forgot to mention the fact that I am a crazy cat lady! (I have 5 beautiful felines that will attest to this fact.)

Eye-Candy for All Whadya wanna know?

Wow, its been a long time since I was on here…

I’m really sorry I disappeared, but I’ve been busy with a new adventure in my life. (I haven’t actually opened my sims game in four months.) I have started my own business making soy candles and I’m really enjoying it!

I just wanted to post a little update here and invite anyone that may be interested to check out what I’ve been up to…

My Candle Tumblr

My Candle Facebook Page

My Etsy Shop

Anyway, I just wanted to poke my head in and see what everyone has been up to…and, let everyone know I am still around!

Hope all of you have a wonderful, terrific weekend!

I had every intention of turning my game on this week and playing a bit, but once again, life had another plan…

My grandfather passed away on Sunday, so I will be missing for a bit longer, to attend the funeral and other things.

Once again, I am extremely thankful for the friends that are sticking with my Simblr and the new ones that have joined me! I really hope to have some sim related things posted in the coming weeks! (I’m going to try really, really hard!)

I just wanted to apologize for being MIA lately. I am still around and looking through others pictures, but I haven’t had much desire to turn on my own game. I’m afraid my personal life is in a bit of a shambles right now and I am working very hard to try to put the pieces back together. It isn’t easy, but I’m trying.

I just wanted to thank everyone that is sticking around and following me, I really appreciate it and I hope to have some new pictures posted at some point. I’m sure as things improve, my desire to play will return.

Sometimes, life just throws you a curve ball, that you never see coming and things will just never be the same again.

The computer gods are conspiring against me…

I was really hoping, once the holidays were done and things got back to normal, that I’d be able to get a new computer (or at least upgrade mine). (In fact, that was the plan.) But of course, life has to get in the way.

Our car (that is 11 years old) is starting to go…Just in the last week-n-a-half, we’ve sunk close to $400 into it and we have at least another $700 worth of work that needs to be done. So, we’re starting the hunt for a new vehicle, which also means, we have to save every penny for the down payment. No new computer for me, at least, not anytime soon!

Sometimes I really wish real life had a ‘motherlode’ cheat!
