Reflections to be Inspired by....

Yesterday and today I found myself reflecting on how much time we spend our daily lives on the internet. I find it enjoyable for losing myself in reading blogs, and making friends on Second Life and Facebook personally.

Recently, my favorite store MISCHIEF has found herself in a designers block, and so is selling many things very cheap and recreating herself. I applaud her for this, and I wonder about others who's RL finances have caused them to reflect as well.

For those who are learning to make clothing and jewelry, (like myself) and have hit the 'reflective' stage of stagnation not sure what to do, or how to do it.

I wanted to learn because I'm losing weight and I remember what it is like being skinny and tall and it was a pain to try and find things to fit me that weren't tailored made as a child. And as for jewelry, because I am cursed with the fact that unless it is expensive gold, I cannot wear it.

So with that in mind, I've added to my links to the side RL - BE INSPIRED BY.
I hope these places give you enjoyment, ideas, and a way to reflect and recreate yourself.

With much love and affection.

B@R Bare Rose Freebies & Dollarbies


The best thing I can tell you is, BARE ROSE is a MUST for shopping. Great prices, covers themes labeled in both men and women catagories of Fantasy, Sci-Fiction, Anime, and more.

This is the freebie and dollarbie corner of their HQ. The designer is from Tokyo Japan. All I can say is, all clothes are transferable, great priced, and if you can't find something the staff is happy to show you.

Dedicated to My Friends who have been hurt...

Know my dearest friends, no one is worth changing to please them when they can't be happy with themselves. We're not dolls, we're human beings. Imperfect but accepted by true friends. Know true friends accept you for who you are, imperfections and all.

World Builder....

What I loved about this was basically no matter what your background, your health, your challenges...this sums it up in a nut shell.
You are only limited as much as you allow your imagination to be.

This is a really fun store with great prices on quality clothing.

Tribute to BREAD - Sweet Surrender

You know I don't care if this gets on Ellen or not, but I tell ya, she might not be LADY GAGA, but the lady's voice ROCKS. Not even sure who she is, but liked how well she sang BREAD's Song - Sweet Surrender. Nice touch! Thanks for the memories :)

Bread - Simple Staples of my Childhood...

Growing up, BREAD was one of the earlier bands I remember (1969-1972) So this is my tribute to their music and their fashions. I remember taking my brother Jim's shirt because of the fabric and design on it. And I also remember these wild pants they wore. I know, because I TOO wore them. It was one fad I am GLAD did NOT return to style... *laughs*

This is a RARE clip of one of Bread's concerts. I hope you enjoy going down memory lane with me... Song is..."Any way you want me"

Tides are changing in SL...

Since last year, I've taken a course in GIMPster (still learning), signed up for CIF&D (still learning), had surgery, RL trials and tribs with children. Joined Tiny Empires under Migloire (which reminds me of one of my favorite movies..), and have joined up with LUCKY KITTY CREW as a BLOGGER there. :) Oh and as you can see, have a new look!

So bear with me as things slowly come around and look for new posts from me in due time. I have 92k to go through my inventory! *hugs to all*

October 21, 2009 - Summary of my life on SL and in RL

This one is going to be a little boring. Just giving you a run down on why I've not posted until now. My health has been rather chaotic. I feel burnt out at times, and overwhelmed other times. Today is one of those days.

I do want to thank my friends in Lucky Kitty Crew and Give It Away for keeping me sane.
I've dealt with having SL crash and losing AVPainter. The Lindens were great about trying to help me, but we just couldn't located it. The creator never contacted me, so that caused me to be depressed and finally bite the bullet and replace the program. I hope it was worth it.

The Creator of LMC has been a godsend with her courses on learning how to make clothing for PS and CS2 and CS3. I'm not sure if other courses are available. I'd like to hear if there is.

I'd like to thank my Soul Sanctuary Sisters and DJ friends for putting up with me, and offering me a way to try and pay my rent on SL. I know times are hard all over.

Anyways, if I can get the surgery I'm trying for, I'll be nursing the Mermaid Diaries and trying to learn to make clothing.

Thanks for standing by me as good friends.
I love you all.
