Bad Saturday

Bad Saturday

I had big plans for Saturday. Nothing wild. Just peace. Maybe a tidy up. A cup of tea that stayed warm. Paint my nails. Make a few TikTok’s. Instead, I woke up with more back ache. The kind where you stand up slowly and know it’s staying. Tried to ignore it. Had a stretch. Made [...]

The first coffee

The first coffee

I don’t wake up ready for the day. I wake up confused. Honestly, every single morning. Before coffee, I stare at the ceiling like it’s at fault for me having to get up. I’ve brushed my teeth, dressed and ready I think for the day.I’ve read a simple email and run to make another cuppa. [...]

Raining cats and dogs

Raining cats and dogs

It’s absolutely freezing. The kind of cold where you think, it may as well just snow and get it over with. But no. Instead it’s raining. Proper raining. Cats, dogs, maybe a small donkey. The sort of rain that ignores umbrellas and finds its way down your neck anyway. Everything feels damp. Not soaking. Just… [...]

My mobile phone

My mobile phone

I hate when my phone goes off. Every buzz feels personal. Like my phone is tapping me on the shoulder just to say, “Hey. Nothing important. Just vibes.” It’s never good news. It’s never life changing. It’s always an app I don’t remember downloading or a notification about something I’ve already dealt with. Or a [...]

A QUIET PLACE

A QUIET PLACE

Here’s my brand-new nook, fresh from Chez Moi, A chair so plush it still has that showroom name. The cushions are firm, no sag in sight yet, The backrest supports me no creaks, no regret. Right beside it, my bookshelf stands proud and straight, books neatly lined up, no leaning to hate. They’re crisp, barely [...]

I’ll be busy

I’ll be busy

I’m genuinely buzzing right now because my friend is coming over from France for a long weekend, and I haven’t seen her in five years. The kind of time where life happens, hair changes, people move, and somehow you still pick up exactly where you left off. It’s funny how excited I am about something [...]

Drinks

Drinks

I always thought a drinks cabinet was a posh people only thing. Oak furniture, fancy bottles, and crystal glasses. In real life, my “cabinet” is a shelf that holds cordial and lattes. But in Second Life? Different story. In Second Life, I can be absolutely skint and still own a gorgeous drinks cabinet packed with [...]

Striking the pose

Striking the pose

There’s a very specific kind of chaos that comes with blogging in Second Life, and honestly, I think it’s part of the charm. You spend ages finding the perfect outfit, the right windlight, the angle that says “effortlessly candid” while actually being very simply staged. Then comes the pose. The sacred moment where you’re supposed [...]

Cozy Porch in my beach hut

Cozy Porch in my beach hut

There is a very specific kind of luxury that comes from sitting down and doing absolutely nothing. Being firmly planted on my Chez Moi chairs, while the rain aggressively taps on the roof like it’s got opinions. I mean, it’s winter but these look and feel just as great inside the beach hut! Is it [...]
