Tiniest setback possible

So, here's what happened:
I saved the game, did about three minutes of gameplay, then saved and left. Apparently, it didn't save correctly, so I lost about 3 minutes of gameplay. Which I honestly don't care about, but it means I lost the remodel. So I redid that.

Also, I am terrible. Horrible. So...you know Riana? Well, her name's Briana. Apparently.

ANYWAY, Brian (yes, I'm sure that's his name!) aged into a teen. Love the bunny slippers, dude.

So, this is normal gameplay: Aleena trains BRIANA on the treadmil, George either standing there or cooking something, Brian on the computer. Brian has the "good" trait, but it never really shows through.

Meanwhile, BRIANA's still strumming away at that guitar!

As her elderly mother goes to work.

And then George had to unclog the toilet.

One thing I don't understand: how does unclogging a toilet boost your handiness skill? Well hey, I've never unclogged one, so I guess I don't know anything.

Then...another glitch. When George went upstairs to sleep, he was visible from the downstairs.

And I'm pretty sure ankles aren't supposed to bend back that much.

As soon as Briana gets home, she's off to work.

In order to move up further in the criminal career, Aleena has to befriend her coworkers. So I had her invite over the only one she knew.

He left before they could become friends, though.

After work, Briana sits down in front of the door with her dad to work on her homework. Thank goodness I got her the "Multi-Tasker" reward, otherwise she'd be up all night.

Then she plays some computer games before heading off to bed.

From the screenshot, it looks like she's racing a car?

And then-Brian surprised me and sat down to do his homework! That's his "Good" trait doing it's (rare) work!

By morning he was back to normal, though. He had ANOTHER wish to skip school. Well, then, get down to buisness!

You don't like the sink? THEN FIX IT.

Meanwhile, Aleena (off of her own accord) plopped herself down in front of the TV and started watching the gardening channel.

It's her subsitute for me taking away her garden. I'M SORRY, OK? I GOT YOU THE TV! SO WHAT IF YOU PAID FOR IT?!
