Everything Must Go

Wednesday. Marnie woke up in a poor mood – and in the dark. Getting the kids off to school was a struggle when the only thing you could make was Fruit Salad. Still, she managed to get it done. Then we get this notice.

Poor Marnie. At least she had finally figured out what to do about it. There was a guy who was coming over to buy anything that Marnie had deemed “unnecessary” – the TV and game console, the stereo, Bennie’s microphone, the old Murphy bed and bookcases… and, unfortunately.. also Marnie’s precious hidden computer. With the twins playing in the growing layer of dust in the dark basement, Marnie haggled with the guy for a half an hour before she managed to talk him into just barely enough to pay the overdue bills. With what was leftover, she restocked the groceries.

Before next week, she was going to have to contact the police again, or maybe Social Services, .. or.. a lawyer? Anyone who might be able to help her get child support payments. Or something. Because there was nothing left to sell for next week’s bills. Marnie took an extra moment in the bathroom, trying to cheer up, but she was pretty sure her eyes were still bloodshot and puffy from crying herself to sleep last night.

Clearly last night’s sleep hadn’t done much for Marnie, either.. because her energy was incredibly low. And there was so much to clean. Waking up on the filthy floor spurred her into action, however, and she took a Sleep Replacer potion and dug in.

… At least, until the vacuum broke. Grumbling loudly, she fixed it.. and got back to work, glaring at Jaz who was heading for a lovely nap. If only Marnie had time for one of those, she mused.. and put on yet another pot of coffee.

  1. Bet Marnie is really missing lying to her husband now, huh? The kids won’t stay babies forever! she still had a chance at her dream! Now she’s stuck raising six kids by herself. I hope Jaz is gonna be okay with all of this happening though. I’m mostly worried about how this is going to affect their future.

I am a 47 year old American wife, mother, and gamer. I’ve lived in the Midwest most of my life, and enjoy it for the changing seasons. My favorite movie is Labyrinth, my favorite game is Sims 4, and I have tattoos related to both. My favorite colors are purple, red, and green. When I’m not playing games (which is rare) I also enjoy reading and crafting. I’m also an animal lover, and have had many types of pets over the years. Currently, I have a dog named Cassie who is a Jack Russel / Beagle mix and five young fancy rats (all of whom are rescues). I run this Sims 4 Blog where I post screenshots and stories about the different challenges I play. Also here are the Sims 4 challenges I've written, and a place for me to store all the Sims 4 knowledge I've gotten over the years. I am also a Sims 4/variety streamer on Twitch for my mental health, fun, and to meet new people. I am also in the EA Creator Network and an Ubisoft Partner, which is a dream come true! I look forward to meeting you!
