Said It All

Yesterday was the day that my Mum was cremated... Yesterday was the day that everything felt so final... It's been a long month to get here, but yesterday was the day that she was finally able to be at rest... Soon she'll be back with us where she belongs and I KNOW I cannot wait to have her home again...

So while I'll be mourning in Private for now, I wanted to take a moment to send everyone a hug. Tell you all that, if you're still lucky enough to have your mum around and you love her even just a little, remember to give her a hug and tell her that...
To my mum, and I KNOW you won't read this, but I wanna say it anyway... You knew that SL was a big part of me, you didn't ever really understand it but when it took my life in the direction it did I'm sure you thought I was crazy... You accepted it was a part of me, and welcomed the parts of my life that it brought you, like your crazy Dutch son-in-law... That's why I've had to take a few moments just to let Rudh leave you a thank you, shed a tear for you and become my therapy as I heal through these difficult times... 
I love you mum, you were always my favourite person - just don't tell Dad I said so - and I will see you again every time I look at the clouds or smell the flowers or find that perfect shell on the beach... One last thing to share with you today, since it was one of your favourites... Take That have "Said It All" for and with you...

Fairy Defence in the Darkness!

Sometimes I have a craving when it comes to blogging to do things that are NOT normal and let myslf get lost in a fairytale, be that a good or a dark one... Being lost in a fairytale really helps me with my mental state and right now being lost feels like a great idea. There is just too much going on in my own little world, as well as in the real world, and without complaining here too much I feel like I'm losing the battle pretty fast... So step back from the norm Rudh and find a way to embrace the darkness... My darkness feels like a HUGE monster, lets make him more friendly and things will calm down once more?! I hope... 

In the garden of the Spinners, my monster floats through the light that breaks through the trees and the darkness... He's a cloaked Hornswoggle - made by Tardfish, available at the Fantasy Faire Aventurine Promenade to raise money for Race for Life - and though he lurks in the dark, when he comes into the light he's a lot less scary and more like a Ringwraith from the Lord of the Rings... 
He's always trying to scare the fae folk that wander through the gardens.. Rudh as a sassy little fae isn't one to mess with. I guess that's why I decided to take on my monster as a fae today... She's a little thorny, but she sparkles in the dark so that the monsters are intimidated. She's armed with her Willowvine Wand - from Simply Shelby at the Fantasy Faire Stoneveil Crossing Sim - and the magic within will keep her monster at bay...

Enchanting Little Mushrooms

Today has been crap but tomorrow is my day off so I'll be able to take things a little easier for a change. I'm going to spend the day relaxing doing not a lot and reading a lot more... I don't want to think about anything, I just want to turn my brain off and not have to deal with people or things... A fantasy world is the place I need to be... 

I'll keep it short and sweet today because frankly I am already falling asleep. Its making me see things that aren't real... Pretty fantasy things like the inhabitants of Elderbloom Courtyard - a backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis - where the mushroom folk live happily... The Enya Antlered - a set of antlers released by Faunus at the current round of Enchantment Frostbitten - adorning her pretty little mushroom head, and her adorable little Mushy Mush Head companions - from Tardfish - are the most fun, happy, Autumn spirits to watch while I drift off to sleep...

A Different Kind Of Magic!

Once again I've had a long day of chaos with my daily job and the fact that Holland has no trains running meaning the busses were full and people were having issues... I'm home from work now and needing a little magic to make things feel better...

Magic can be found in many places, and caused by many things... There are many things that people would consider magic and if you asked a collection of people, they may all surprise you by saying things that are different... 
One thing that seems like magic at the moment is that Hair Fair 2025 is now happening, and runs until June 15th... This charity event has changed a lot over the years but the magical part is that every year thousands of dollars are raised to assist in the creation of Wigs for Kids that are very much in need... The smiles on their faces is a little magic the world could use right now... 
The little fae was super excited in the gardens today as her and her Hair Brownie - which is a creation from Tardfish, available at the Hair Fair - were playing in the flowers and she found herself a new wand of the magic kind... It won't do much to tame her wild "Svetik Hair" - from monso, also at the Hair Fair - but the cutie Curling Iron is definitely magic!!!

Dark Fae Fights

I needed a little bit of magic today, the last two days have been chaos and I have two more to come... It's not long now until Eurovision and that gives me an evening of cheesy entertainment to look forward to...
Since I've been tired and ready to murder people that get in my way, so unfortunately it's only dark magic that I could summon...  

The Dark Fae that I have discovered today is the Bone Warrior, decorated in furs - thanks to the amazing set from Faunus which includes shoulder pads, as well as the crown, necklace, and sword worn here - and a touch of darkness with her Witchdoctor vibes... The only problem is that when she's about to face off the threats, her Dire Wolf Stag companions get a little boistrous and have been known to cut her with their razor sharp claws...

Awakening the Spring Spirit

Back from my vacation and ready to get back into being an adult, I think?!! I mean does anyone ever really want to be an adult? There are so many expectations that I simply cannot be excited about it right now... I guess that's why I let my mind wander into the fantasy realm sometimes, and since I'm already missing my parents, that's just where I will let my mind go again... 
Maybe it's time to start planning ahead and welcoming in the spirits of Spring...

The Spirits of Spring have been hanging around the Nature Palace - which is a backdrop from The Bearded Guy - until it was time to start coming out of hiding. Things are still inter changable between the hot and the cold, there is no way that we can be sure and so everyone has been taking scarves and gloves, as well as light coats wherever they go... Hopefuly now that the Spring Spirits are awakening, preparing their magical spells and coming out into the light things may start getting a little warmer, brighter and happier...

Releasing the Snow Storm...

I know that sometimes my blogging is all over the place, and one day I'm bright and colourful while the next I'm darker and more dead looking... This time of year as the weather is changing and the winter whites and greys are taking over from the Autumn colours... Soon the reds, golds and browns will be a thing of memory and the whites will be altering the landscape... All it takes is a simple magical gesture from the fae, and everything changes... 

When the Fall Feels hit, and the air starts to get colder... The Fae are slowly starting to get weaker and beginning to show signs of decay, so even though her flowers and leaves are beginning to turn red, her body is decaying before her eyes... All she needed to do now was uncork the bottle, release the Stellar Dendrites and watch as they take a Leafy Ride on the wind... 
Since things need a little more showing off, I've added the ads for the Leafy Ride from Aardvark, and the Progeny Bindi from Six Feet Under...

Cave of Creeps and Crawly Things

I'm in a lot of pain after a trip to the docs today but luckily I had something a little creepy to make a girl's skin crawl... I needed some kind of distraction, and I think the creepiness of the bugs may just be the kind of place to do it... 

Some people are terrified of bugs, others love them. I'm not one of those that hates them but certain bugs give me the willies... WHY is that though? I've never really understood why people love things like butterflies and ladybirds but other bugs make them squirm and shiver...

Fairy Flower Magic

I wanted a little sprinkle of some light, bright fairytale magic today. I know Halloween is meant to be about the dark and spooky but dressing up, is dressing up, and well originally the fairytales were nothing like the Disneyfied happy endings we get now... 
Still a little sprinkle of fairytale magic can't hurt, especially when I'm feeling so low right now... 

I've always loved readin fairytales. I love the magic, the drama, the love that can be found... I've always wanted to let my inner fae out to play and in SL there are just so many different ways that I can do exactly that... I love expressing my fairytale creativity in Secondlife and having so many pretty things to play with really does help.
Today the fairy in me is trying all different kinds of magic to help the Frog Prince return to his human form, since Princess Tiana is on holiday...

The Colours of Heaven!

Angels mean so many things to so many different people, and there are so many ways of looking at them too... Long gone are the days when they were beautiful, innocent looking beings, no longer sweet innocent child-like beings, now Angels come in all different shapes, sizes, colours and styles... I'm not always a good girl but even when I'm dark and depraved I liked to think I'm a little angellic... 

There's room for all different angellic beings in Heaven, and heaven is much more lively these days than peaceful beings roaming around in long white robes... At least not in the kind of heaven that I tend to invisage... IF there is a Heaven I'd imagine it would be full of bright colours and fashionista divas... It would be a Dreamlike Space - similar to the backdrop from K&S - and since we all know there are stairways to heaven I'd want to make sure there were  plenty of places to sit - like the Beau Benches from Krescendo, available until tomorrow at FaMESHed and then hopefully soon in the mainstore if you miss it at the event - so that you can catch your breath while climbing up all of those stairs... 
Wings would be feathered but Ethereal - like the ones from Doe - and in rainbow colours and the gorgeously soft fabric of the Grace Dresses - in this amazing dress, and heel set, from The Kiwi Co which is actually available as the biggest bumper group gift... Blueberry was always known for being brilliant quality, and the new Kiwi Co store is that, as well as super generous in their gifts it would seem - match the colours perfectly...

Flowers and Fluttering Things!

It's time to get MAGICAL... It's time to celebrate and let my hair down... It's time to RELAX... Today is unofficially the start of my holiday... I am going away to see my family in RL next week, but for the next few days I'll be blogging my little heart out and having a damn good time doing it... I even saw a blogger challenge that I plan on participating in, so watch this space for that, but today I'm letting the magic take me... 
The flowers of summer brings all the butterflies, bees and perhaps a cute little fairy boy or two - depending on my reading material hehe - to my garden... 

I am very much looking forward to spending some time in England next week, there is never anything more relaxing than seeing my parents and other family members. I look forward to spending some time in my parents garden, reading books and doing a little shopping...

Moths and Fluff in the Mind

It's Remembrance Day today in the Netherlands, and normally I spend my day focusing on the blood red poppies of Flanders Fields that have become a symbol of remembrance in the UK but today my mind has shifted a little... It feels like it's full of fluff as I have the start of a cold coming, but with everything going on in the world right now Remembrance Day has definitely shifted to become something more than just thinking about soldiers lost at war... I couldn't focus on poppies this year, I had to do something that made me feel thoughtful, allow me to remember in a different way and give me a moment to pause for thought... 

High up in the attic space where the light glows but is more than a little sombre, I sat in the glowing light of the late Autumn sunshine and closed my eyes. My head full of fluff as my mind wanders, I feel lost and alone in the sombre darkness... I am a doll in this life, and my face shows signs of breaking - an amazing accessory from KitCat called Stuffings TheDoll - while the butterflies of my imagination drift away in the light beams and dance through the quiet space... With everything going on in the world right now though, the way we remember the dead should change too, I love the poppies, I love the significance they hold and they will ALWAYS be important. Yet we need to just use this time as a moment to stop and pause, to think of anyone that had sacrificed themselves to save those of us that live on, no matter where they are, what they believe and what their reason is... We're still fighting over political issues, we're still fighting over religion, we're still fighting for our rights, in a modern age where people should be allowed to live their lives how they choose...

Moths love the Lamplight!

It's been a while since I've had a craving to take a chance to do something a little magical. For some reason, I've been finding it hard to focus on blogging lately and have not been able to get in the zone and dip my toes into the fantastical world... 
Today though, as the lights started going down and lamps were lit, the magic of the night starts to come to life.. As beautiful as their daytime counterparts, the moths are the silent dancers of the night's sky... Guardians of the Night Fae, and the messengers of the Eagles, and serenly ghost-like...

Everyone knows that Moths are drawn to the light, they dance from the darkness and seek out any source... The Lanterns in the garden providing the softest of glows, the twinkling into the darkness and as the song goes, my lamp light brings all the "moths to the yard"...

Flutters at the Flower Market

It's been such a hot few days here, and I worked my ass off all weekend, so today I've been able to finally able to take a break and relax a little bit. I really hope that things cool down here so that I don't have to work in heat like that again. 
Today has been fairly relaxing, I've done a few things around the house, taking my time with them while trying to stay cool, and even went to the market. I was so tempted to get some flowers, there are SO many beautiful flowers and they looked so happy... I know they'd wilt at home... 

One of my favourite things in my SL home has to be the little market area that I've set up... I wanted something pretty to decorate the space, and since I love flowers, the flower market seemed to fall together naturally... SO MANY FLOWERS, and a touch of magic... I'd done some shopping, I'd bought a paper and some bread and fruits but the colours of the flowers, and the flashing flickers of colours drew me in. The beautiful Fluttery Friends - a hunt item from Quills & Curiosities, available until August 31st at Enchantment - were enjoying the gorgeous flowers too... What a beautiful Flower Shop - a pose set from Fashiowl helped with this picture set up - and well once hooked, I was buying flowers LOL...

Waking the Mushroom Fae!

It's so freaking hot today, another bloody heatwave and I'm desperate to get out of the heat. My office is under a flat roof, and there's no avoiding the heat upstairs, so I'm hiding down in a cave of my living room with everything closed. 
I'm craving Autumn, I want the cool crisp air, the feeling of leaves falling and that beautiful frost that settles over the ground I want the cold air, and the fact that I need to wrap up warm and snuggly... 
I've heard that things are changing, the fairy folk are preparing for their winter sleep whilst others are starting to wake... It's almost the time of the Autumn Fae... 

In the deepest, darkest parts of the forest, by the dark pond - a backdrop from Synnergy - there is a perfect environment for the hiding place for the Mushroom Fae. These pretty little dark fae need dark damp places just like their moisture loving fungal friends... These pretty little Autumn Fae decorate themselves with their favourite mushrooms, some are into the red with spots, others like the frills that grow on trees and the Rudhie version who loves the cute little brown button cups... She loves them so much they adorn her body - thanks to the amazing new release from Quills & Curiosities at the soon to open round of Enchantment - you'll have to excuse her mess though, she's just waking up from her Summer Slumber...

Strutting like a Peacock

Now that the Midnight Order has begun, but what goes on during the daylight hours when the monsters of the Midnight Order are resting... The Midnight Order doesn't only welcome the monsters, there are faefolk and spirits that discuss the more beautiful side of the darkness... 
One of those happens to be a sparkling Goddess that prefers the company of birdlife, especially the regal peacocks, that strut and show off and, well that definitely appeals to her... 

This goddess wanders through the buildings of Korakia - a backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis, available in this weekend's sales - talking to the beautiful peacocks that are strutting their stuff trying to outdo her in the glamour stakes...
Unfortunately for the birds, there is nothing that can rival the goddess for glamour... From her Shattering Sun Halo - from Oblivis  at Midnight Order - to her Hellebore decorated horns - from Quills & Curiosities - and her Mirabel Circlet - from kosmii at Midnight Order - are status symbols, whilst her silk dress - from Petrichor and ERSCH - and flowing cape - part of a set from Aii at Midnight Order - the goddess definitel stands out from the crowd of birds...

Poppy Picking with the Funny Bees

I went exploring today, there have been changes to so many of the places I loved, and new places have popped up so there are lots of brilliant places to discover. One of my favourite places went quiet for a long time but they've brought it back and had it rennovated and it's prettier than ever. 
The place I'm talking about is Lost Unicorn, it's the prefect place where all of the fairies like to congregate. You can walk through the forest, under the trees and into the light and you never know which of the fae folk you'll bump into... 

Today in the forest, you may bump into the prettiest of green fae folk that has been out to collect herself a bunch of July Poppies - from LODE - she's also laced them through her hair. You know how it is, when you're out picking flowers, you can't help prettying your outfit up - the hair and it's flower accessory is available from Doe at Summerfest until July 10th - and it seemed to catch attention of at least one new friend. This particular area of the forest is home to the Funny Bees - from SEmotion Libellune - who are so cute and fluffy, and cannot resist the smell of pretty poppies... 

What is she wearing;
Hair & Flowers: Doe - Poppyseed (Available until July 10th at Summerfest)

Robins and Pansies in Spring

Spring brings new life... The flora and fauna are all coming back to life from their Winter sleep, there's new flowers and baby animals popping up everywhere!! It's also the time that the fairies are waking up too, they are waking up and helping out with all of the births... 
Even today, on the balcony that overlooks the courtyard, in a pretty little bird box a daddy Robin has come to check on his new brood, a nest full of pink little babies... He's been lucky, there's a support waiting for him... A Pansy Fae woke up and came to lend him a little magic... 

The Neighbourhood is now full of Robin song... The little robins - from Hextraordinary - are hiding in the safety of the bird box - which is actually a photobooth for the Spring Collection, from Synnergy at The Liaison Collaborative. It's only accessible from the balcony's railings, making it perfectly cat proof, although the fairies can get in hehe... 
His help today is a Pansy Fae, she was lured in by the purple flower - which is strange since normally purple and I don't tend to go well together - but pansies are SO pretty...

Spring is coming, and so are the Flowers!

March is not only important as it's my birthday month, it's also the official start of Spring. The time of year when the flowers start coming out and making the gardens look like they are full of rainbows... It's like magic... The magic that brings out the magical beings, but not all of them are the good kind, but at this time of year even the demonic folk are pretty and covered in blooms... 

Narcissus or Daffodils are my mother's favourites and the blue Forget-Me-Nots that decorated her horns as a remind that now that Spring is here, I am missing them again, and hopin that they don't forget me... I reeally hope that I can get home soon, I don't want the to forget and my Grandma is starting to lose her mind. Following in the footsteps of her sister...
