Well, it is only Goneril and Albany in the house now, and the two dogs.

| Albany - Raise Twenty Puppies or Kittens |
Highly unlikely he will be able to do this at his advanced age of 65.
Beginning wishes: Reach TOC in Education, Get a grandchild, see relative get married/engaged.
 |
| Goneril - Become Chief of Staff |
Beginning wishes: Woohoo in bed, see relative get married/engaged, and get a grandchild.
I believe both of these Sims are perm plat. We'll see how it goes. Let's proceed.
Monday:
No wishes fulfilled for Albany, as they were all unreachable. However, he gets on the phone and invites his daughter Ariel over.
She was extremely glad to see dear ol' dad. Dad gets right down to business and asks her to move back home which would mean there would be a baby in the home again, Rod. He is Ariel's son with Benedick Monty.
She refused her dad. So mom asked. Nope. She wanted to stay put.
Goneril saw woohoo in bed. Again, all the rest of her wishes revolved around Ariel getting engaged/married. Man, this was a tough crowd.
Two new puppies were born, Cantiflas and Shirley Capp. Albany asked Webster to try for puppies with Alegra again right away. It was a success.
Tuesday
On Tuesday Albany had something new to wish for. That Webster the dog would learn a command. He also wanted to make friends with townie Christie Inada. Being that Webster was asleep before Albany went to work he got on the phone and talked up Christie, but the friendship was not made.
Goneril wanted to see Alegra learn "Come Here" and wanted her to get a job. She began to teach Alegra, then it was time to go to work. When she came home, still wanted Alegra to learn to come here. She wished to talk about hobby, blog about arts and crafts, and get a grandchild. So it would seem the familial type wishes were fading away. At this point ASimWen realized Goneril was perm plat. Did not have to fulfill her wishes if it didn't suit ASim. haha
Wednesday
Webster had aged to elder dog and now slept most of the time. Albany still held a wish to teach him a command, but Webster slept when Albany was available. So Albany being 67 and over halfway through elderhood himself decided to get on the horn and shore up those family ties. So around midnight Wednesday morning he called up his nephew by marriage Tybalt Capp for a visit.
It was a great reunion. Albany became friends with Tybalt, and then only needed two more for promotion at work. Since Hal moved out when he married Kimberly Monty the friend count in the Capp house was very low. Albany only needed two more friends for advancement.
Later in the day, Goneril decided to help Albany out with Webster's training since her wishes were not actively being fulfilled.
 |
| Play dead! |
Being and elder dog, Webster tired easily. It took several trainings before he knew how to play dead. Albany gave him lots of praise for his effort, spinning that wish out of existence for him. Then, he gave Alegra a bath. Albany was having a good Wednesday with dog wishes. but a not so good day making the needed friends for work. He only made one more.
Thursday
Early Thursday morning another puppy was born. Lassie Capp.
Now there were five dogs on the lot. As soon as Cantiflas and Shirley grew up, they would be sent to Animal Control for someone in the neighborhood to breed.
For Abany this day, it was the best day. Due to ASimWen's finesse with chance cards, Albany was promoted to Education Minister, even with the lack of friend count.

| Education Minister Albany Capp |
Albany called Animal Control, and off Shirley and Cantiflas went. Cantiflas was a rather handsome dog. Neither Goneril or Albany cried, as no one had become attached to the pups.
Then it was back to wishing for Webster to learn stuff. Now it was to teach him to roll over.
Friday
Albany was spinning dog wishes so fast it was practically blinding . He wanted to give Webster a bath, teach Leslie the dog a command. Leslie was one of Alegra's pups raised and long gone. Then he wanted a relative to get engaged and wanted to buy a buglar alarm. The Capps were burgled early in the morning of their sofa, TV, telescope and something else. It took the Capps so long to get out of bed and stumble to the phone the thief was able to grab good loot. A burglar alarm was purchased only to be replaced by a wish to teach Webster a command.
Saturday
Started out with a big hope that Albany's wishes would shift a little. He wanted to talk about his hobbies.
Only to be replaced with a new slew of dog wishes. Command Webster to come here. Command Leslie Capp to come here. Then of course the good old relative gets engaged. That means YOU Ariel.
Sunday
Lassie Capp the puppy grew up. ASimWen has never laughed so hard at the appearance of a Sim Dog. If there was a goofy looking dog contest going on, Lassie Capp would win.
Mom Alegra on the left, daughter Lassie on the right. Oh you are saying I must have this dog Lassie in my game! Breed the EA dog Webster, and the EA stray dog Alegra. There you go. LOLOL I would like to know how come Lassie is so bulked up. *giggle* At any rate, Albany called for Animal Control to come and get her so that in the future she can throw those good looking genes all over Veronaville. Oh yes! She will be bred.
Anyway, Albany had to go to work this day as the College Dean of Students because he had gotten demoted the next day after being promoted. Goneril spent the entire day trying to make two friends so Albany could promote back up. But it was not to be. The Capps had no wishing well to quickly up the friend count.
When Albany came home from work his wishes looked more like a Family Sim:
He wanted to give a gift, wash Webster, talk to a relative, and play with a relative. All of these were doable. By now Albany was 71 years old, and would pass to the great Sim Beyond soon. Yes, he needed to make sure he was right with all his kids. Namely Ariel. He wanted to see her married before he passed away.
He got right on the horn and called her up. Hopefully the visit would be better today than it was at the beginning of the week.

| Ariel Capp - Popularity - Wants to have 20 Best Pet Friends |
Albany realized the wish to talk to a relative, which was replaced by Be BFF with Mallory Mace. Ugh. Apparently Ariel has had a change of heart and has moved home with mom and dad. She brought her little boy Rod. She and Rod were living with her sister Desdemona and her husband Spencer Monty, and his alien daughter Audrey.
Ariel's Wishes:
Priase Webster, play with Albany, go swimming, meet someone new, have a party, and talk with Albany.
Ariel immediately began making friends with Alegra.
Shortly after midnight early Monday morning, she realized 5 wishes straight away interacting with Albany.
And we close this play with Albany getting to know his new grandson, with mom Ariel looking on.
Next up:
Romeo and Juliette (Capp) Monty Lot! See you then! And as always, keep on Simmin', but family is first.
~ASimWen
Oh my gosh, I laughed so hard at the picture of Lassie grown up. It took me a second cause I looked at Alegra first but then noticed how Lassie looks and I was dying in my chair. A fun read.
