Happy to meet all the new members of the challenge! I've been playing the sims, but aside from work it's been more the way I play when I'm in creative burnout mode, so my sim self has written several new novels and is up to 1,800 bottles of nectar in her collection (I have to sell fruit immediately in that game so it doesn't slow down my gameplay xD)
My appointment this morning was cancelled so I can write a little bit again, I hope to have something out today but no promises as my afternoon appointment is still very much on! The Sparrows seriously need some TLC though. The story there is getting into a rough patch and when it comes out there will be a 'I don't advocate this type of behavior' disclaimer. And I miss them!! I'll add some pictures below of upcoming story moments, shall I?
((EDIT)) Here's an update!

I'm not even sure how it happened in my case, since I blast every roommate out of existence, but one day a little popup informed me I was getting paid. I feel like that would go against game rules for what's allowed for income and what's not, but I suppose all you'd have to do is remove those funds from the household to solve that problem.

Hi Waga,
I've played with roommates before and there is a dismiss option somewhere, possibly a phone interaction? They do pay, I think once a week, but if you'd like to keep them around you could treat that as income that has to be spent immediately on the house (on items you cannot resell), or something I'd like to try; buying a second lot to turn into an adjacent park or something with it. (Basically if you treat those funds as you would any random gift and buy items that cannot be resold you wouldn't be interfering with family funds. Also a separate lot where those items go is maybe further protection than needed, but I like the idea that they wouldn't effect the family bills that way.)

I sincerely hope your new bee tattoo is that whole body stripey cheetah spot that starts at the hairline on the face. I miss the bees too by the way, can't we get more Gazette pics of Nicholas running around causing mischief? Seems appropriate for the season. I will look for your update.
@slashbanghorror I just read that you lost your save file? That's horrible! Did you have the family saved to the Town bin or any of the sims in the CAS bin that might be on another save from around the same time? That's the only way I can think of to get them back. They're impossible to recreate once gone, I'd imagine. So sorry that happened. Hope you feel better too...
