Yes feeling much better now... Thanks!
Thanks for reading! I use a mod to have a home vet clinic. LittleMissSam's Live in Business Mod. It's a great mod that I use mostly for vet clinic and retail store at home but I have tried the daycare at home business and pet daycare which can be fun as well. I like how easy it is to sell items I've crafted and not have to keep someone at the table all the time. I use a lot of mods in this game to keep it fresh and interesting. There are so many great mods out there and so many more I want to try but I can't have everything. LMS has a lot of great mods that can really freshen up the gameplay.ciyrose wrote: ↑April 10th, 2024, 2:25 pm Looking forward to the new update! I haven't been playing much recently myself, got a bit stuck figuring out what I wanted to do with the next family in my rotational hood, but I think I have the plan worked out and should hopefully get to playing again more.
Great update!Spoiler:
This is FANTASTIC!! I always hated that we couldn't do in-home businesses. Granted, I know you can pretty much live on a business lot, but still! Thanks for the info. There are a lot of cool mods, and I have a list of ones I want to try and eventually use, but the game is updated so much still I try to go as vanilla as I can so I don't end up getting hooked on a mod that someone stops updating.AmandaPlayzSims wrote: ↑April 11th, 2024, 1:12 pm Thanks for reading!

I understand the need to take breaks from the games sometimes as I get tired of playing and also the story doesn't always stay as much fun and going back later can be more exciting then if you kept playing. When I get tired of a game or a challenge, I go to my "Fun" game where I play, test new mods I think I might like or play a game where no one will ever get to see it. Just having fun and it brings me back to the games I am playing even if it takes a while.
I agree the volume of mods is crazy out there. I stick to some of the really popular or the creators that are making websites and updating regularly like LMS or Lumpino, a.deep.indigo and many more. I just started using the illness mod for some of my for fun games and it's interesting.ciyrose wrote: ↑April 11th, 2024, 2:04 pm

I have always taken breaks from Sims over time, sometimes multi-year-long breaks. I try not to let it go that long, but this time it's almost all been because of my RL crafting. lol Yes, I also had no idea what I wanted to do with the next family, but part of why I keep so many families going is so I can play whatever sounds fun, and I was playing other games, and knitting/crocheting a ton and just didn't feel like simming. Which is fine, I'm ready to jump back in.
I have a rule for myself that at least 3 nights a week I have to do something other than sims after work even though I want to play sims sometimes. It gives me a bit of a break so I don't take off a month or get too exhausted by one game/challenge. I think all simmers do this from time to time and nothing wrong with changing focuses for a while. 
Have a great day and have fun simming or crafting!
