Protector of Memories

It's been a while but I think it's time for a little bit of fantasy, somewhere to throw my imagination of too... I haven't been able to focus on anything too taxing since I've had PC issues, and have been working my butt off on my final presentation for work... Today, it was time to let my imagination fly... 
Fly into the magic of time and space, on the wings of a butterfly, for a meeting with a very important fae being... 

She's a celestial being, she floats among the stars, watching the passing of time and assisting the butterflies that carry the memories of the people they belong to... This particular butterfly is not one of her own, it's the butterfly of a family member, the yellow representing their sunny countenance. At the moment she's reflecting the emotions of her person, a blue for the sadness, the loneliness and the worry...

Buying Flowers

I have not been feeling very well for a few days now, and have in fact spent most of the day today curled up in bed. I wanted to take some time though to send a message to everyone just to let them know that I'm not dead... YET...It's just a cold, just a cold that seems to be knocking me out... 
HellBone is looking after me, but I need something that makes me smile... 

I logged into Second Life and wanted to just do some decorating to make things pretty in my garden for the summer season... I stopped in one of my favourite places in the garden, it's a place I've mentioned before, and whilst I was there I decided to match the sentiment set by Miley Cyrus, and plastered on the front of Esti Tee - from miss chelseamiss chelsea, available as part of a set from Equal10 Equal10 that goes with the pants and belt bag that I'm also wearing - I decided why not, I can buy myself flowers...

Feeling Super Sweet

Summer is coming, it's not my favourite time of year I have to admit, but I guess I have t face it head on... So far the year has been a bit of a crazy time weather wise, but they say that it should get a little warmer soon, and since it's almost June, the weather should be heating up and I will be melting down... 
There's one thing that will get me through the hot season, Ice Lollies, in fact now that I think of it I want one now, and some candies and chocolate and all things sweet and delicious... 

I'm going to just put on some good music on and mix up some fancy juice that I can freeze into Ice Lollies... Sweet, tangy, and in all different kinds of flavours. I love fruity ones but I also love those mini milk lollies, those were fabulously delicious when I was a little... I don't always have a sweet tooth, my normal snack of choice, but when I do, I go all out...

The Sheriff Needs Target Practice!

I've never been that into the tales of cowboys, and country western music makes me feel bored - don't come at me, we all have our own things and so many people laugh at me for Take That lol - but I heard that there is a new Shot Gun event sweeping into town and well, I guess it's time to get my 'yee-haw' on... 

I'm going to be getting myself into a brilliant little bit of trouble, but first for now I'll be hiding in the barn while I get ready and have things practiced before I make my cowgirl appearance... 
The biggest secret of the moment happens to be that some how I managed to land myself in the role of Sheriff, being offered a Sheriff Badge - from Puddles - before I've even had a chance to show my worth... I had the amazing outfit ready - thanks to the gorgeous new release from miss chelsea for the Shot Gun Event with it's Wild West Theme that is running now until June 6th - but as HellBone tells me I have the aim of a stormtrooper when firing a gun... I needed some practice, I was being taunted by the Bandit Bash Game - from MadPea that allows you to beat the crap outta some bandits when you are in a mood - so I picked up the Lone Rider BB Gun - from Junk Food - and took aim. Don't worry it's not a real gun, it would only dent the bandits, but before I could get more than one shot off, the gaggle of Deputy Ducks - from Aardvark, but like many of the items blogged today are available at the Shot Gun Pop Up Event - swarmed in and, although I was the sheriff and they are my new deputies, I figured that I was in trouble! Oopsie!!

A Sunny Day, A Cold Drink & A Good Book

A day off to enjoy the sunshine... I AM NOT a fan of the hot weather, but I do LOVE the fact that it's not cold, wet and raining at the moment.

A day off, don't you love those... I love when I get to have a day off and relax, and today I've done just that... Nothing besides a short walk to the store to get something delicious for dinner... 
The rest of the day I was lazing around watching my avatar go from being totally unsure of what she wanted to do, to deciding to head to the boardwalk to get some grub and meet some of the locals... 

The boardwalk at the Coastal Beach - which is a backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis - is the best place to get your hands on one of the super, amazing Smash Burgers - from Junk Food at Anthem until May 30th - such juicy burgers covered in gooey cheese with some delicious french fries on the side.

Stealing the King's Trident

Whilst working on my blogging stuff and things today, I found my mind drifting off to another of it's many fantasy worlds and this time we drifte back under the waves, down deep into the sea where the sun shimmers on the water causing sparkles to dance on the sea bed... The mermaid in question today is not one of the ethereal princess types that floats into my blog from time to time, this one is a sneaky diva on a mission... 

There has been a coup in the royal palace of King Triton, and now in the Mermaid Cove the opposition have put some huge burly, Chubby Fish Guards - from Tardfish - have been placed on guard over the super important trident of the sea king...

Modern Day Cinders

A lovely lazy Sunday evening, reading a book that was bought for me as a gift by my cat as a Mother's Day gift... She is so thoughtful and even though I chose and bought it myself, it's her thought that counts... I know that there are many people celebrating or mourning today in their own way, my mothers day was a few months ago and my mother is so far away, so I'm just enjoying being a fur baby mummy today... 
The story I'm reading is one of fairytale romance, far off magical lands, and finding your own magic... A twist on Cinderella, that I can really get my head around... 

In the secret garden, within the middle of the magic lands our modern day Cinders steps away from her carriage into the grove lit by flower lights and decorated with magical Faewood vines - from everfaery - and although shes not dressed for a ball, she's definitely prettied up from a night on the town. Dancing the night away... Making a quick stop on the way to grab herself a bouquet, holding her sneakers in her hand... She doesn't need a man to find her shoes, less carry them for her...

Clockwork Angel

The passing of time can be seen as both a good and bad thing... 
When I was a kid, I wanted to be a grown up, now I'm realising that this desire is something that I wish I could turn the clock back on so I could be a kid again... I find myself clock watching to get through the day faster, though funnily enough when I stop the day always seems to go faster... The years seem to fly by faster now that I'm older, it's already MAY where the heck has this year gone... Time is a strangely wonderful thing... 

Father Time is one of the oldest beings in the Universe. He isn't alone in the Cathedral Halls, and the Clockwork Apses - a backdrop from THE ESCHATON - that it contains. He surrounds himself with the Golden Kronos Girls... Angels that glimmer in the candle light as their golden skin and glittering time-piece halo - all part of a set with the body paint, hip decor, halo and tiara are from Forest Fantasy Store, available from tomorrow at Enchantment - to make sure that time passes smoothly for those that are living their days like nothing else matters...

Chips and Guac

It's May 5th...Cinco de Mayo... In the past I've mentioned I wanted to look more at other cultures holidays, and I did pay some attention to Chinese New Year, and I have in the past looked at Dia de los Muertos, but you hear the term Cinco de Mayo and I've never known what it is...This year I'm going to have a little look into the special day for the Mexicans, and I'll do that with some nachos and guac... 

So what is Cinco de Mayo... Originally a day to remember the victory in battle, Cinco de Mayo is now considered more of a celebration of Mexican culture... 
Knowing very little about Mexican culture other than what I've seen online I feel a little like I could cause offence by talking about tacos and sombreros and pinatas, and I mean no offence. I LOVE Mexican Food, althouh I guess you should more realistically say Tex-Mex foods... I love a good burrito, and nachos, and quesadilla, I'm not a HUGE fan of guacamole, but that's only because I think avocados taste like snot... However, I cannot resist the urge to fill a Nacho Dip Hat - from Junk Food - a sombrero that is perfectly formed to make a bowl for dip! It even provides extra chips for when the bag is empty... 

What is she wearing;
Hat: Junk Food - Nacho Dip Hat

Fear Not The Silly Ghosts!

I have moments when I LOVE to play around with the fantasy prettiness, the fae and the mer folks that live in the sparkly parts of my mind... Sometimes though, I need to get a little more silly, sometimes the silliness is imperitive in making me feel a release. Today was one of those days, I wanted to relax, I wanted to let go, and then the silliness magically happened... 

In the deadlock at the end of the street - which happens to be a backdrop from K&S - you'll notice that someone mysterious and hidden has erected a sign that speaks volumes of truth... "Fear not the Ghosts, Beware the Human Fuckery" - the sign is available from Violetility at The Warehouse... It is not the ghosts that we should be afraid of, although movie, tv and books might have us believe otherwise. The ghosts of the past are memories in the dark, some are good, others not but that's just what they are... Shadows of a life lived... It is the humans that surround us that we must be aware of. I am totally for putting my own needs first at times, but there are other times when people take advantage of that, and use the kindness of others for their own selfish needs... 

What is she wearing;
Costume: [Yomi] - Boo-ba Sheet 1
Skin: amara beauty - Freya in Ivory
Sparkles: Cole's Corner - Starstuff & The Fantastical Nebulous Aether
Skirt: AsteroidBox - Lea Skirt in Yellow Stripes
Pose: Secret Poses - Riley, Pose 5M

The Sheep of Sleep

The weather keeps changing SO MUCH... Yesterday was over 25 degrees and today it's dropped down to half that, this weather rolling through the temperatures is messing with me and making me want to sleep forever and a day... 
Whilst I'm feeling a little magical, I'm definitely in the mood to let the sleepiness guide the magic and the sheep in our dreams that we count as they jump over the moon, take the lead... 

Normally it's the cows that jump over the moon, but there's nothing written anywhere that says the sheep we count night after night can't be jumping over the moon too?! This sleepy little sheep has decided that's what she will do, she's formulating a plan to jump over the moon and dance among the stars...

A Cute Fairy Forest

I've been a little bit on the nervous side today since HellBone has been in the hospital, and in times like that when I'm trying to distract myself I tend to vere towards something pretty, something magical and maybe something fairy-orientated! 
Funnily enough that's precisely what happened... I found myself drifting to a magical place in the depths of the fairy wood... 

I couldn't resist decorating a fairytale grove with some Glorious Grove items - from the new collection by Krescendo at FaMESHed - and once the decorating party was started I simply couldn't resist the free gifts of Sun Balloons - that have been set out by MadPea for the anniversary round of FaMESHed this month - that brought a little sunshine to my clearing in the woods...

Home Again!

I'm back home from my little trip to the UK... What a wonderful time that I had... I spent some lovely time with family, watched the family of foxes that have moved into my parents back garden and I even had the night of my life watching the concert of my first crushes, Take That! It's been busy and eventful, but perfectly wonderful and although not relaxing, I felt the change of scenery was good for me... 
Now though, I am back and it's time to make sure that I get all of the things done... It's May, and this month MAY get a little crazy... 

As I get home, I've got my case and my kitten in her brand new pink bag -  we'd travelled out with the old green one, but the pink matched my luggage better - and because I'd been shopping with mum I accidentally may have bought too much and therefore had to carry my Sleepy Bear - from Sakura - in my hand... 
Even after a day of travelling, I still looked adorable in my outfit with my hair tied in pigtails - a gorgeous style from Yomi (yes Yomi is back and I'm so excited as I've missed their hair) at SABBATH until May 11th - but all I wanted to do was get my post from the mail box and sneak into my home to shower and sleep...
