With the news of The Sims 3, it really has me wanting to play The Sims 2 more. One expansion that has caught my attention is The Sims 2 Free Time.

I have mentioned before how I love to decorate the homes probably more than actually playing the game. And with using the money cheat, you don’t have to rely on directbuy to find affordable furniture. The money cheat is great since even your Sims newlyweds will live in style. It does make the game a little boring since you don’t have to depend upon a job for money. But it has it’s advantages especially when all you really care about is home decorating.

This might be one I have to get at the end of the month with the next pay day. The little one is getting old enough to entertain herself so I’m actually recovering some of my free time.

There is a local fun run that will be happening the first weekend in May and I want to take part in it. I don’t run but would like to start since it’s good exercise. Also the runners I know really love it and run look forward to running every day.

That’s what I want. I want to look forward to exercise each day. I’ve begun to look at treadmills just for the simple reason that it gets hot here pretty fast. I don’t know if I begin to run now if I will be wanting to run by the time it gets warmer temperatures. Our spring usually lasts about two weeks. Not a huge window to make anything a habit especially when they say to make something a habit you need to do it for three weeks. Maybe two weeks of spring is an exaggeration but it will be quite warm in a few weeks.

To prepare for the fun run, I have begun to run each day. Right now I’m not going far but hopefully over the next month I can build up my running time. I’m hoping that the little one can ‘run’ with me since she runs everywhere anyway. She is my inspiration anyway for getting healthier, so it’d be nice if she could take part in this first fitness goal.

I was excited when I got the new Wii release Super Smash Bros. Brawl and rushed home to play it. It played great. I was a little worried since I had read that some people were having trouble getting their Wii to play this first ever dual disc for the Wii.

Since I had no problems, I didn’t worry too much about researching the problem. I did read that Nintendo said that smoke could cause errors and would gladly clean for free any Wiis that wouldn’t play the disc. But that means packing your my Wii and sending it off for who knows how long.

Well yesterday my husband wants to play Smash Bros. but the Wii will not load it. Hopefully it was just a fluke and will work today. He took out the disc and wiped it off. I’m not sure if there is a disc cleaner for the Wii or if a regular cd disc cleaner will work. We are not smokers, so the error wouldn’t be caused by smoke. Now dust on the other hand might be a different story.

I won’t worry too much about it until we try to play again.
