The fact that now Not only have I got (from my point of view) gorgeous skin for it. ARTE have now released some brows and eyeliner for it.
I think I look rather good today if I must say so myself.
There is no visual artistic photoshopping work to my photo. Just a plain very little touched photo. So what you see is what you get. Which is always how I prefer to see things.
Today the Steele blue eyes from ARTE are verging on the greeny spectrum and I love how they look.
Will I be changing eye colour permanently? Well you can wait and see.
I tried a live stream last minute on Saturday night which was very nerve wracking for me. The whole be real in the video and live. I was fine if I didnβt look at the stream but the minute I did it was OMG cringe time as Iβm not keen to look at myself.
Iβm basically trying to get used to this whole becoming a product ambassador thing and advertising myself as a positive by product of the product.
Although I have been one to attempt live streams I am not as comfortable as maybe I may appear doing them. I suffer with great nerves and moments of self doubt which Iβm guessing is quite normal.
A friend asked didnβt I think of getting all dressed up and putting some make up on? Hell no. Why should I? I really donβt do that as the norm so to do that would feel very unnatural to me.
I could have made more effort at looking like those atypical gamer girls types with my makeup on etc etc but frankly I prefer to be real at all times. The reality is Iβm 54 and not getting younger and having my boobs at attention seems disingenuous as frankly what would the viewers be really looking to watch? Saggy old boobies that need a good harness to keep them upright?
Actually I can never understand why gamer girls do dress like that. Iβd be so proud to see a woman get up and live stream dressed in her trackies and baggy T-shirt like us normal folk. Itβs 2020 and I do feel disappointed that women still use sexuality to obtain their base.
Itβs a thing I see a lot of and in many ways puts us back in terms of being accepted and respected for what we can do as women.
But, to each their own. If it rocks your world to see then rock on.
I’ve been so excited to show you these dances I literally cannot wait till Saturday to do so.
Let’s start the week with the latest Dances from Paragon Dance Animations, the Alia Vintage Belly dances. I’m still in the snow mode because of the very intrinsic hand and finger movements.
Now if you haven’t noticed my style is always to use different music tracks so that you can appreciate the versatility of any dance. So watch with an open mind.
Honestly I really loved making this particular video. I hope you enjoy watching.

I’m having a bit of a hiatus in extreme blogging for a few days.
Also filming. I just require a break for a bit so I can ask myself a few all important questions about the meaning of life etc etc.
Not really. I just fancy some chilling time.
Earlier I connected up my streaming and went live on TWITCH from Sansar.
It wasn’t exciting to watch but I had to test to make sure it’s working. Tomorrow I’ll test going live on all platforms to see if I have the hang of it.
I’m not sure which crazy world I’ll go in but I’ll just spin the bottle and wherever it lands, that will be it.
There is a reason for this madness, which will become clear in July, as long as I get it right.
Other than that it is time for me to strip off and go under cover as Thelma and lay by the water.
With the COVID-19 Lockdown I have found the days basically blurring into each other and my current wardrobe attire is pyjamas. I basically shower each night and pop on a clean pair of pjs and then shower again in the morning and wear them again. I still do my hair and a bit of tinted moisturiser but that’s basically it.
I kid you not, my wash load is currently basically pyjamas and knickers.
My baps get to hang freely, why wear a bra?
The only time that changes is when I step out the door for a exercise stroll or like today, a visit to Tesco for some groceries.
Can I tell you how emotional I was when I walked down the egg aisle today and found 3 boxes of eggs!!! Seriously I was so thrilled.
I could have fried them in the aisle with joy. No really I’m not even exaggerating.
I haven’t been able to get eggs for the past few weeks.
I literally cannot wait till the morning. Egg and bacon !!!!

Do you feel like we have slowly been going back in time and suddenly we now find ourselves having the time to spend doing all those things we put off?
Me neither!
Unfortunately unlike many other people who now find time on their hands and may be suffering some itchy boredoms, my day is still the same as always albeit the silence which was my friend is not so currently.
I value my alone time, I need it. In fact it is essential for my mental well being. So if you read about a woman who loses her shizzle, that will be me.
When Mr Corona Virus decided to spread its ugly tentacles to the world, it did so with such severity it took control of all our lives. Its ending many lives prematurely and making living lives more difficult because of the things we have got so used to.
But let me add, things could be way worse in life. Dont moan.
A sentence of time with your loved ones for weeks on end is not the end of the world. In fact could be a time to discover each other and maybe listen for a change. Yes hands on the phone you who is half here and half watching tv whilst tapping on social media. You!
There is so much more to life than what you are used to.
I don’t think once this all is over, we will return to our usual lives so easily.
I believe this is a testing time and we will learn the things we take for granted and whats important. Well I hope so as otherwise as a species its true we learn nothing.
But spare a thought for the dysfunctional families out there who are stuck in the same walls together. There are people suffering because of this forced isolation and we may complain about our situations but domestic violence in homes is serious and there are children and partners who look forward to their normal days as they can escape temporarily what they face.
It’s those people I fear who suffer greatly at this time and we must be vigilant in keeping our ears open to those situations and reporting them so no child or adult is left to suffer.
Other than that, discover the pages of a good book or two or three.
When it comes to Sansar and Second Life, I have a passion for both.
Both platforms have very different reasons why I love them and advocate experiencing them.
When I first went into Sansar it was during the pre public release.
I was in there familiarising myself and learning how to navigate myself around it and admiring the whole graphical experience. That was back when there were just a few experiences most by Sansar and creators had just started creating places to visit.
Move along a few years later I have seen so many changes in there and the creator experiences become more interactive and fun.
The problem was that people expected to land in Sansar and have a Second Life experience.
Sansar was never meant to be a Second Life experience. That was the first mistake people made when they logged to check it out. What they “expected”, were pretty avatars and a Second Life society.
Then they started to complain and blame Sansar for their user experience in Second Life.
Yet never really appreciating the vastly new things that Linden Lab we’re bringing into Second Life. Mesh, Bakes on Mesh, Animesh and better Linden homes etc.
So the thoughts conveyed by negative nellies was always they felt they were being “done over” in replacement for Sansar. That they would lose their hard worker lives in Second Life and the investments they had made.
The reality is, look at the past few years and the amazing things that Second Life has acquired!!
Now back to Sansar.
I love Sansar and am glad that Ebbe Altberg is not ditching it but seeking for it to continue and let some other investor take it forward. I’m not leaving Sansar and neither are many other Sansarians users who understand its potentials.
The technology behind Sansar is amazing. The potential for it even more amazing.
It has the graphics of a cgi game yet you are living inside it real time.
My computer loves it. My computer is 5 years old.
Now check this video below and tell me, this isn’t amazing or realistic.
I’m glad there is a world created like this. That’s asexual and able to provide meeting places for huge events virtually.
That young people under 18 can visit and explore their own creator experiences and not feel they can’t participate due to adult constraints.
The potential here is there.

A few people have asked me about how they add a clickable logo to their WordPress.
Given I only recently after years of being here learnt myself I know how difficult it can seem.
So I made a quick tutorial in my coffee vlog to demonstrate.
I hope it helps those of you who were like me previously trying to figure this out.
Often I have asked questions in the past from other bloggers about how to do things in WordPress but have found people can find it hard to explain in a text form or simply they are not interested to help.
Consider this one of a few tutorials I will attempt to try and help the others out there who similarly struggle on our own to learn things.
I am not a great tutor by any means but all I can do is give it to you my style and if it helps then absolutely great.
