The Queen Shall Rise

At the moment I KNOW that everything seems to sound like I am not coping, I am hanging on the edge of a break down and I am done with life in general... I am sorry if it seems that way and that I'm worrying anyone. Things are just really difficult at the moment, but I HOPE that soon I am back on track and able to start enjoying life again... It's just everything still seems so bleak and I HATE not being able to pick up the phone and speak to mum... 
The Queen of the family has fallen... I'm just not sure how long it will take for her eldest to be able to step up and assume her role... 

You never think that it's going to happen... I mean I'm not stupid I KNEW it would happen one day, but her mother is 94, alive and kicking... I thought I had at least another 20 years of nonsense with her yet... Still, sometimes the Princess has to step up, stand in the shoes of the Queens before her and guide her life in it's own direction... I'm just hoping she's going to be like the Jedi in Star Wars... Always there, always feeling her "Force"... 
So the battle may be over but the uphill climb has now begun... The mourning period is diminishing, and wearing black is less of a done thing. The crown must be adjusted and worn with pride... I don't know if I'm ready, but the Midnight Order of things demands a Queen shall rise...

Stones for Roses

I have been trying to keep my lazy brain active lately, reading and learning more about new and old things alike, and one of those things has been taking me back to my archaeological roots, today I was looking into a little Greek Mythology... Namely, at least for today, Medusa... The poor woman get's so much bad press for turning heroes to stone just because they look at her, but it has been said that it was a punishment caused by being in the wrong place, with the wrong person at the wrong time! 

It's what happens when you let Poseidon flirt with you in the tomb of another goddess... Mind you have you seen the recent re-incarnation of Poseidon, I mean I know he's not Poseidon but Aquaman is almost as close... 
She's not been on a date in such a long time, since her hairy pets have a tendancy to turn the boys to stone, but at least those boys that do come to visit bring her pretty flowers - thanks to the pose from Secret Poses, in which you have the option to use both Pink or Red roses. She loves roses, almost as much as her pet snakes, that's why she's had them tattooed into her Medusa Tattoo over her shoulders and down her arms - thanks to a gorgeous Skin Fair release from Psycho Barbie - and is happy to show them off with her adorable Shallan Outfit - a pretty floaty little gypsy number from 1313 Mockingbird Lane. Shame that to get the roses, the guys have to get turned to stone...
