I retired at 50 and I am now 57. I spent my young adult and most of my adult years in the music industry. Then a short time after Microsoft launched Windows I became interested in computers and web design. In time built my own tower with the help of my Sons ,where afterwards designed and built my site along with my Server. I had become really interested in the Sims as it was the first game that I played on computer and I loved it. Then I ended up moving to the country where we did not have high speed internet which truly sucked so I gave up on the computer for a few years. If you have ever tried getting updates or reformating with only a phone line connection then you get the picture. Well I recently moved back to the City or Town well anyway it,s not very big but I have high speed internet again. Then after hearing about the Sims3 I decided to buy the best gaming computer I could find along with my 56 inch monitor and well, here I am. Now I am looking forward to making Sims and Lots maybe some clothing not sure yet as I have never tried but it looks like fun besides, being retired accept for my wood shop which is one of my hobbies, I have lots of time to spare. Well that's about it, Oh yeah! happy Simming to you all now lets have fun for life is to short not to lol.
