I wasn’t planning on posting today, but I have a splitting headache and blogging can sometimes help to distract my mind. Though my concentration is a little poor, so if I have all sorts of typos that I don’t catch lets blame it on that.

When I opened my Flickr this morning I discovered that one of my pictures had been selected as a group cover.  It’s always a nice compliment and thought to share at least with everyone here who reads and follows my blog.  It seems a common thing to post on Flickr as well, but I don’t plan to follow that trend as of now.  The first two are still group covers, as you may be able to see if you click the date.  Just keep in mind that they do change within a week or even days.

Anyways, my energy is zapped already so I am going to take another long rest. Have a great Monday and start of the week!

I’ll be home with bells on

010ps

I think the bell on the wreath made me think of the song “I’ll Be Home With Bells On” when I looked at the picture this morning.  It’s a holiday classic that still brings a smile and makes you want to stomp your feet.  I am listening to it as I’m sitting here writing and starting to get energized.

I absolutely love the feel of a cabin as it conjures up an image of a large fireplace roaring with a warm fire and the idea of sipping hot chocolate all the while in long johns and fuzzy socks.  Chuckles.

The complete Christmas living room set is by HJM Designs and is currently available at the Perfect 10 Event at the Cookie Jar.  It comes with a rez system so it’s fairly easy to set up or you can just rez and move items about.  It’s discounted at the event for half price at only $199L.

Hope you have a fabulous Saturday!

Her heart was like a secret garden, and the walls were getting higher

“Sometimes what we learn and who we become in the process of waiting is even more important than what we’re waiting for.”

I’m going to get a little personal in this blog post, because occasionally a picture that I take is reflective of the mood that I am in.   I was sitting there last evening on this pose and realized it fit the inner struggles I was having.  I won’t get into the reasons for it, other than there are changes occurring in my life that are taking me out of my comfort zone and are leaving me in a period of uncertainty at the moment.  I won’t bemoan the changes… as I know that in a few years I will probably be seeing them as a blessing rather than what they seem to be now.

There is definitely some truth to the following… “there comes a point in your life when you realize what and who matters, what and who never did, what and who won’t anymore, and what and who always will.” In the end you learn what and who was fake or true.

Though luckily I was also able to use the time I was sitting there contemplating constructively by wearing some stuff that is available at the Trick or Treat event that opens in a few hours.

Specifically, referring to the skin I’m using by Zoul Creations and the socks by FDD, which are available in different colors.
