Going Solo: Davis Gen 3.14

I was getting the hang of this dad thing. The girls loved being with me, and who could blame them. I was probably the coolest dad ever! Plus no female could resist my charm, not even ones in diapers. Speaking of...potty time was still torturous!

It was hard to believe almost two years had passed since the day Cora first showed up on my doorstep. We still talked or texted often. She was nearing the end of her program. Just one more year to go and her grades were high. I was proud of her. She had a minor set back with the girls, but her ambitious goal oriented ways kept her focused on her dream of becoming a doctor.

She still came home often, she missed the girls a lot. I'd do video 'chats' when I had them sometimes, not that they actually talked much. Their vocabulary was limited, but we were working on it.They had momma and more importantly da-da down packed. When Cora came home for summer break, I'd actually hoped she'd stay with me, but she ended up staying with Mom and Sha. She would stay on the weekends, and I found myself looking forward to having her around. Even if she did keep kicking me to the couch. Friends only, she'd tell me.

We did things as a family, reminding me of my time as a kid and all the stuff Mom would do with me. And after the girls were in bed we'd hang out. I quickly learned to pick scary movies because she'd end up sitting close to me to hide her face on the really terrifying parts.

Cora quickly had be come a part of the family. Dad loved her, Mom still hinted around at me needing to make an honest woman of her. Mom had even gotten Grams on her side and they both would be on my case about settling down, something about needing to set a good example for the girls. Sha was the only one that didn't ride my case about marriage, but I could tell she agreed with them. Cora was great, but marriage...still not my thing. Even if I did miss her after she'd gone back to school.

Mom and I had a good routine going with my work schedule. I'd have them fed and changed in the mornings before leaving for work. Then she threw a kink in things. She and Sha decided to take an anniversary trip to France. Before they left, she went through the process of interviewing and hiring me a temporary nanny. I wanted to just have Grams watch them, but since her health hadn't been the best, Mom didn't think that was a good idea. The morning she showed up at my door, Chrissy was not what I was expecting.

My mom...hired her...as my nanny. I was expecting some old woman not this hot babe in a fitted tank top and a pair of jeans that hugged her ass like nobody's business. She couldn't have dressed like that for the interview, no way Mom would have hired if she had. Well either way I was please with what I saw. Even after Mom and Sha got back from vacation, I continued to see Chrissy.

She was fun to be around, she was good with the girls and she was easy on the eyes. I realized after a few weeks of seeing her, that she was the first woman I'd dated since Gillian had left that day. Between work and taking care of them, I didn't really have the time. Mom didn't really approve of me dating the nanny, or really anyone that wasn't Cora for that matter. She was really hoping I was growing up and 'settling' down. She was not pleased when I blamed her for hiring a nanny that was so hot. A few weeks later, we got a call from Hector, Grams had died. Mom was heartbroken. I was heartbroken.

I called Cora to let her know and she came the next day, her professor understood about there being a death in the family. Grams and I had a special relationship, I was going to miss her and I hated the fact she didn't get to see the girls grow up. I was however more thankful now that she did at least live long enough to get great-grandchildren. After the funeral, Mom asked to take the girls. Cora and I both agreed. Cora surprisingly came home with me, saying she didn't want me to be alone.

People always say that grief can bring people together in strange ways, and that night we broke her friends only rule.

So...sadness, my founder Ansley (Gruber) Squires died after living 12 days past her day limit. Like her mom, marrying that younger man really seemed to extend her life. RIP Ansley Squires. She found love late in life, but she found it.

Chrissy Roe is a sim Davis met using the Sim finder app. I'd never done that before, but he rolled a want to meet a sim that way so I said why not. Gave her a bit of a background story (and a small makeover) and there ya have it. It was funny, I put in the requirements and she literally showed up at his door within minutes.

It's been a while since I updated this list, he wasn't lying about not having time to date between trying to teach the girls their skills and working. LOL Since Cora 'technically' isn't there to help, I'm making him do most of the work.

Girlfriend count: 8 (just know he will end up dating 11 women since his counter messed up)
