Stuck in a Canyon Sized Rut!

Things in my RL are changing a little, everyday I'm hearing about new and amazing things that are happening... Sometimes for the better and others for the worse, depending on the luck of the day, but recently there have been two changes that are making my life more interesting... I've being on a lifestyle course for the last year now, since my terrifying rush to the hospital's recovery was over... I've been told I've lost 20kgs!!! Today was also a change in my working life... I've had the first day of training to become the assistant store manager for the store I work in... 
Changes are happening in my life, and I am kinda excited to be travelling down this road, I just hope nothing breaks down and I get stuck along the way... 

I'd started out on this road, a road that seemed like a road to nowhere and it felt like I was stuck in a bit of a rut... It was like I'd been driving through Canyon Valley - a backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis - and the car broke down. I'd gotten stuck in the biggest of rut and wasn't able to get out or grow anywhere... 
This road is dotted with signs - you might even say they were Silly Signs, like the ones from Krescendo available at Man Cave now - that I need to choose the right path. Do I want to take the exit - a sign like the one from Lemme - that leads to routine or do I take a jump and dive into a passion?? I walk a lonely road, but I want to know what to do to make it a good walk...

Home "Sweet" Bad Lands Home!

The whole time that the Bad Lands of Aenigma have been open, you've been allowed into the the world of one of it's inhabitants... You met her raptor accomplice - who was lost to the battles in the Bad Lands - and you've been with her on a food run to the diner, but now she's letting you in where she's most vulnerable! Now you're being allowed into her little sanctuary, the dilapidated shelter that she calls home in the heart of the Bad Lands... 

Not many could love a shack like this, but it's easily defend-able, and it's dry! Two major plus points, I'm sure! It's got all the things she needs, a hammock to sleep in, some water bottles and even old Grit Jerrycans that's have been attached to backpacks for easy carrying - thanks to cinful, they will fit any avatar size, since the straps are modifiable which is great news for avis big and small, but they can also be rezzed to make great props! 

As it may be our last trip into the Bad Lands, this may be the last time you see the kick ass little Rudhie she's become, but the fashion trip she's been on has been one of many post-Apocalyptic rides and it's been a lot of fun... This last look is a little more casual perhaps - in an outfit by BADA - I mean she's chilling at home after all, but maybe she's working on something... She looks kinda grubby - thanks to this Cold War tattoo from DeadBoy.Ink - and her Shelter Goggles - from milkyway - may kinda give that away... Maybe it's some more Bad Lands Jewellery?! I mean she's wearing some epic shinies... A choker of bullets, or an Ammo Choker some might say - from Six Feet Under, that yes I did make just a little bigger so you could see it under her chin more clearly, but it's now one of my new favourite jewellery items! - and this amazing Mayhem Face Chain - a gacha release from unstable for the current Aenigma round - made up of all the little pretties she's found as she's been exploring... As for what she will make next, that's an Aenigma!!! (Sorry it's too punny... I'm laughing out loud, like the lame ass I am hehe). 

I know it's not that clear in the main photo, so I'm being a good girl and including a close-up here so that you can really see the jewellery more closely...

Excavations in the Desert

I let my mind wander away to far away places today... Drifting back to thoughts of the course that I studied during my days at University, the days when I had aspirations of becoming a world renowned archaeologist. Running excavations in far flung places and finding the most amazing reminders of the past... My mind wandered, and I ended up in a beautiful desert location, with an excavation to find the fossils of an unknown dinosaur... 

I know that Archaeology is human, and Paleontology is Dinosaur - but I've been rewatching the old episodes of Friends so blame Ross - but I fell in love with the way that my excavation site started to come to life... Like something out of the old photographs of when Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon excavated for Tutankhamun!
The site was actually a combination of things to give it that amazingly - almost Moroccan - feeling... After the Trompe Loeil Teigen Glamping Tent was set up, I threw so many items from the Petite Mort Zingara Collection around to make it feel soft and cosy, whilst remaining cool and shaded! Lastly, and well because it wouldn't be a good excavation without a few tools, I added some of the Fossil Hunter collection from Consignment and it felt perfect... Ready! 
All it needed was a cute and light outfit and I was ready... Thank you Belle Epoque - for the Anne dress -  and Lassitude & Ennui - for these awesome boots!!!

Rudhmellowen Follies

Today I want to do something pretty and found the perfect idea in a set of poses released by NANTRA for the new round of The Liaison Collaborative. The theme of this month's TLC is the very glamorous 1920's Art Deco style, and NANTRA released a set of poses that are inspired by the very gorgeous Ziegfeld Follies - for more information please check here - and of course although I've modernised it and as I say "Rudhified" it, the poses still exude drama, elegance and a hint of sexiness!

At Backdrop City, there is a Milk Motion Love Hotel where you may find The Rudhmellowen Follies rehearsing their routines and posing for photos...
While they rehearse they wear these amazingly soft furry Hollyweird Fur Robes from Moon Elixir, some pretty lingerie and a cute pair of heels... 

What is she wearing;
Hair: TRUTH - Velma in Reds 
Glasses: REIGN - COVEN MYRTLE GLASSES 
Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2

Time for a little Selfie!

A few days after Christmas and I'm back with the friends and family of the MC... Hanging out and catching up as if we haven't been away from each other. It feels a little strange being without them for just a few days, it's hard being away from them LOL... Silly huh?! 
This morning I logged in for my usual morning coffee, and there was my sister friend Lil, ready let me drag her out shopping at Uber hehe... YAY FOR BEING BACK AND SHOPPING!!! 

This is another pose from Come Soon poses. It's one of their past releases for The Showroom Event called BFF... Lil is one of my close friends, someone I spend a lot of time with, and someone who is my close friend in RL too...
I love my sweater from Legal Insanity, with the slogan "I like Beards and Tattoos", my favourite type of boys and the scarf was something that I'd had in my hoard for a long while but never actually wore... I LOVE the chain linked look of it!!!
But anyway, hold that thought, I'm just gonna go make a selfie!!!
