Here we are in Belladonna Cove at the Bella Park Condominiums for a visit with Jason and Marissa Cleveland. (Their son Justin is in college).
Elder Jason is a Fortune sim who wishes to earn 100K and is working his way up the Law Enforcement field. He is a Swat Team Leader. Marissa, also Fortune, wishes to be a Criminal Mastermind and has just been promoted to Getaway Driver, she'll head out for another shift later tonight.
Jason is working on his body skill ready for promotion.
On her first night as a Getaway Driver Marissa had to make a choice...
Thankfully she chose correctly, earned some money, a skill and a promotion to Bank Robber when she came home.
As Marissa was going to bed Jason used his new chess table to earn a skill.
Before he could leave for work on Tuesday Jason got a loud knock at his door from the Landlady.
She had a right old go at him because he didn't pay his rent yesterday. Wow! I've never seen that in the game but it was so funny. :D
I sent Jason to the mailbox to pay his 'overdue' rent. :D
Marissa got some groceries delivered.
Jason came home as Police Chief to Sim City. He made a best friend too.
Marissa arrived home with promotion to Cat Burglar, and oops...
her Elder birthday! Sorry Marissa I forgot. :D
On Wednesday Marissa had the day off and visited with her neighbours.
Jason got a chance card.
Yes Jason! top of career for you.
Outside the snow was falling thick and fast and a gathering of people arrived...
Marissa's brother Geoff and his wife Lydia as well as her son Justin and his college buddies were here to celebrate...
Christmas!
Jason told Santa he'd really like a holiday...
then ignored everyone and went and maxed out logic. :D
On Thursday Jason got another chance card,
chose the power plant and earned himself a lovely bonus!which he invested...in a holiday home at Takemizu!The Pearl Mist estate is their home away from home.With Jason being Captain Hero and Marissa now a Counterfeiter (and with Jason's big bonus) they could afford to kit out this basic home.and so they did. It made more sense to me to have the biggest room at the front as the living space whilst the bedroom is at the back.They did all the fun holiday things, meeting new people and learning a new greeting, going on tours and drinking lots of tea.They played games, ate local delicacies and even learned a tale about a Dragon legend,But neither of them impressed the Ninja.Back home on Saturday and on Sunday Jason flew to work.He had the same chance card again but chose to go after the Robot this time, which paid off very nicely!So much that he fulfilled his lifetime wish to earn 100K.Marissa loves to cook and wanted to win a cooking competition so she rustled up a Berry Pie,and impressed the judge enough to win, even beating Gabriel Green's Baked Alaska!Summary-This was a fun week with the Cleveland's, both did well in their careers, maybe next time Marissa will also reach the top.Very funny about the missed rent payment, it was the way the Landlady was holding out her hand and frowning that was hilarious.Next we're off to see how their son Justin is faring in college!
