Sorry - it's been so long since I've posted guys, but that plane crash last week was in suburb of Buffalo, and quite close to my town. Needless to say - things around this part of New York have been a wee bit stressful for the past week. I didn't know anyone that died personally, but non-the-less you can imagine how everyone here has reacted to it.
Thank goodness I had AC to help me get past all the sorrow.
So, in keeping with the general topic today - I didn't play for several days, but when I did start up again, I reset the date & time to where I had left off. I did just my general chores - pulling weeds & watering plants. Then I went to the attic and saved the game - then I started it again and reset the day to the next day - once again just doing the "chores". I have now caught up to the present day & time with no ill effects. It was good to see that that worked fine - I can't imagine my DH letting me take the Wii on vacation so I could keep my town up & running...
