thank you for sending me the info on your story. I left you a comment. Your design work is extremely good! I love the modern wood and glass style. I don't always keep track of what someone has posted, so please keep letting me know when you post something.

Ottamas Odyssey Thank you for being interested in what eventually happened to the Ottamas. There was probably going to be six more parts to their story but I am not willing to deal with TSR’s bizarre behavior. I would rather play the game then constantly try editing my stories that I feel are perfectly acceptable for the TSR audience. So here is a quick recap. Sorry for the length. But there was a whole lot of drama going on. David (oldest son) and Emily Ottamas David and Emily are on the verge of splitting up because she won’t have another baby. They are fighting all of the time. David ends up having an affair with another woman and Emily finds out. David suddenly and tragically dies in a fire that is started at a family reunion when a relative tries to change the season from winter to summer. Fireballs were everywhere. Emily almost goes crazy with being a single mother but does endure. Then when her three girls are all teenagers Emily is suddenly struck by lightening. The three daughters end up living with their grandmother Samantha. Kim (oldest daughter) and Jacob Martin. Kim succeeds to the top of the business career track and stays madly in love with her husband (used to be her stepson). But Kim’s oldest daughter Maggie can not get over her mother’s betrayal of marrying her brother. When Maggie’s Father Andrew dies, she blames Kim and Jacob for his death (even though he died from old age). Just after entering college Maggie hires a hetman to kill off Kim and Jacob (the hit man was curtsey of DMAsims.com) Maggie goes crazy and is never seen from again. Kim and Jacobs son Marvin Martin also goes to live with Grandma Samantha. Tommy (youngest son) and Marion Ottamas Tommy routinely has depression and anxiety problems. After the untimely death of his older brother David Tommy begins drinking heavily (there were some great shots of his down hill spiral). He blames himself because he created the weather generator that caused his brothers death. Sadly his wife Marion could not take Tommy’s addiction and left him. Tommy eventually drinks himself into an early grave. His children end up living with grandma as well. Shasha (twin) and Robin Banks. As Shasha continues up the entertainment career Robin Banks becomes more and more aggressive with her. He is secretly living the life of a criminal and has an affair with one of her sister’s. When Shasha finds out about his secrets he becomes enraged and ultimately abuses her (I had no plans of showing picture to ensure PG 13 rating) the abuse becomes so violent that he ultimately kills Shasha. Shasha’s twin boys Robin Jr. and Rich end up with Samantha as well. Sharla (twin) and Dusty Rhodes Sharla wanted a huge family but Dusty begins to not be attracted to Sharla anymore. A lot of confusion follows until Dusty realizes he is attracted to men. When Sharla finds out about Dust’s romance with a man she commits suicide. Dusty is beside himself with grief and blames himself. He ultimately leaves town just like his own father did, leaving his twin boys to live with their grandma Samantha. Beth (youngest daughter) and River Rhodes. Beth and River were never suited for married life and continued to have numerous affairs. On the verge of divorce River suddenly dies in the same fire that kills David. Beth is a free agent and lives her life to the fullest. Eventually having an affair with her sister Shasha’s husband Robin. After a while Beth meets a handsome and extremely rich sim and decides to marry again. Things when well until her young adult daughter Sunny moves in with the family and has an affair with her stepfather. That affair leads to a Sunny and her stepfather having a child together. Beth packs her backs and lets her mom Samantha take care of her teenage son Rocky. Samantha and Peter (Mom and Dad) Sadly Peter passes away from old age. Samantha goes on with her life and helps out with all of her grandchildren. Eventually most of them ended up living with her. Samantha has a long life because she achieved three lifetime goals. She graduated three children from college, married of six kids, and had six grandchildren. The story was going to end with Samantha sounded by all of her grandchildren relating what readers could learn from the ultimate downfalls of her children’s life. Again thank you so much for reading my Ottamas Odysseys story. I wished I could have continued because I had some great screen shots. I will write stories again, just not ones that are so in-depth and time consuming (because of TSR). **Simul8ing

Thank you so much for reading my Ottamas Odyssey story. Unfortunatly there will be no more chapters. I'm having issures with TSR. For some reason they keep rejecting my next part. I've reviewed it over and over and feel it is very much PG 13. No nudity, violence, or bad language. Plus they have suddenly unpublished Part 4 and 5. So obviously they do not appreciate my storytelling. Anyway if you were extremely interested in how my family turned out let me know in my guestbook. I will give you a recap. Thanks for enjoying.

Thank you very much for the kind words and about the hair: you can find it on modthesims. I don't remember who made it, but if you look through all the hair meshes, page by page, you will finelly see the hair. This is what I did. So give it a try, and if you can't find it, I'll try so search for it myself..since everybody's asking the same thing all the time anyway! happy simming!
