Another new home

by Isabelle CherenLeave a Comment on Another new home
Another new home

Im like a moving butterfly, flying from leaf to leaf looking for my forever home.

Yep moved again!!

The beautiful place Rosie and I had is no more, since a nightclub opened on the other half of the region and basically shoved out scripted this and that and our lag went from perfect to lets walk in treacle. Nature of the beast when you share a sim or a region. You have no control of the out look beyond your own 4 lines.

Rosie had done a great job of the vram police and making sure that everything on the land meant there was no drain on the computer when we walked around etc.

In one week that changed and frankly that was it. Move.

So here I am again showing you a new place but also showing you the old place as a visit down memory lane as I hadnt really got around to the full show off. Clearly I am rambling again which I tend to do .

Funny thing SL is a great place for not feeling too sad when things like this happen as you just each time create your own fantasy and its like going home.

Hang

Hang

Have you ever felt so exhausted that you really feel you could sleep forever?

That’s me right now.

I go to bed each night, sleep, wake up, work and repeat. Same thing I’ve done for many years.

Just lately though it feels like my sleep never existed and those hours in bed never happened.

Today I woke up as normal for work, had breakfast, drank my tea and started work. The difference was that exhaustion was in a whole new level and I knew I couldn’t sit there and work. It was like the brain stopped functioning and I needed to sleep.

So, for the first time in my life, I took a day off to sleep. Purely and totally just to go back to bed and rest.

I woke up again 15 minutes ago and I can honestly say that was the best thing for me.

I still feel exhausted but I feel better for it. Now what to do with the rest of my day!

Hang?????

Yes!!!

Yes!!!

Hump day!

So why not dress for the occasion.

I’m celebrating the end of the week now. By the time it does come I’ll be so tired that I need a nap!

Honestly the past two weeks have been so full on that I look forward to the weekends just to sleep. Yes sleep!

So when Hump day comes along, Im feeling that the ride to Friday is all the way downhill to my comfy place. aka the bed.

This week is a hectic week as Rosie and I have ended the home we created. Sadly a club has moved in next door and no matter the amount of lowering VRAM that was done on our side trying to make it less laggy, when someone else comes in, its like you are fighting back in the treacle.

So the result is, Rosie got her own homestead and I have moved to another homestead with a friend.

Ive made a little home and just finishing it off and dragged one of my tenants with who has his own little island now and made sure he has all the privacy in the world.

So that may be my first video this weekend just to show you the move and what I left.

Rosie has amazing landscaping skills she needs to utilise.

Id always say if you have some spot that needs some assistance to landscape, ask Rosie!

But don’t tell her I said so!!!

Shhhh mums the word

Just waiting right here

by Isabelle Cheren4 Comments on Just waiting right here
Just waiting right here

I’m into week 3.5 or is it 4 of my social experiment about face filters and how they really are cunning little things.

I say little because they come via a phone app or a camera nowadays.

The drastic differences to your appearance can be pretty shocking but even more so the concern as to how vulnerable as a human you can feel if you were to compare yourself to some of the imagery you see via such social apps as Instagram and YouTube.

I’ve certainly become quite observant now of anyone who appears on my social media that looks good. When I say good I mean with pore-less skin and looking more youthful than logic says they would.

Imagery that is not true to aspire to.

However here in Second Life, we can be whoever we want to be. Because we all understand that we are real people on the other side.

Today I’m that girl next door.

I feel like the donut

by Isabelle Cheren4 Comments on I feel like the donut
I feel like the donut

I feel right now like I ate all the donuts.

I haven’t, I just feel like it.

As a woman who has always questioned why in life. I am right now asking why why why do we every single month have to go through that feeling of mood swings, bloating, stomach pain and let the list go on. Why?

We simply have no choice, well some of us. Others are lucky to not have that experience each month and in my next life I want to sample being one of them.

I’m 54 years old and I’m sure menopause is in transition right now. But, whilst that is happening I still get all the feelings of being 13 again when I used to disappear to the medical room at school and lay down.

I guess that’s life and it’s the way it is. But why????

Now on that note enjoy your Saturday and don’t eat all the donuts.

They’re mine!

Deco Soup fan girl moment

I’m having a fan girl moment.

After a really meh day as I explained in my last blog post I thought I’d cheer myself up by releasing this blog and video today.

It was due for tomorrow but hey I’ll press the finger down anyhow.

So I’m basically blogging the outfit from Suga Baby and blogging a gorgeous home in Second Life decorated by Sienna Foxdale. Subject to my fan girl moment.

Sienna Foxdale does some amazing decorative work under the brand name of Deco Soup.

So rather than me blathering on. I do feel you should just watch the video and then hop on over to check it out in real time.

These nails I cannot see

by Isabelle Cheren2 Comments on These nails I cannot see
These nails I cannot see

I seriously kid you not when I say I’ve spent a good part of my day with blurred vision which meant I really couldn’t see much.

I had some eye tests in the morning and had that stuff put into my eyes that stings like hell and then makes you struggle to focus. Oh and you feel like a vampire as the daylight is so strong you want to run back inside. That’s been me.

I logged in to my work after and my god that was just the worst struggle ever.

I literally had my computer screen right in front of my face so I could try and see. Logged off in the end as there was no point.

Had a nap and now way better.

Can I say, it gave me an indication of what it must be like to lose your sight, or rather be struggling to see.

It’s not nice or easy and frankly I’m very grateful I have the ability to see. To go through life seeing but not seeing must be incredibly difficult for anyone in that position. So yes sight and sound I value above everything in my abilities. Oh and my voice too.

I get my results in about 1-2 weeks. So yeah. That was my day.

It’s nearly 7 pm here in the UK and I’m back to normal. Shall continue to chill and tomorrow it’s back to work, repeat.

Check out my whole look and I’m sure you will agree I need to be seen.

All I want

All I want

It’s my lunchtime here and all I want to do is go lay on my chaise in my bedroom and nap.

Only thing is I don’t actually have a chaise in reality or a bed so pretty. But I can dream a little.

It’s been a iffy morning and nothing went right so I’m currently all over the place and counting the minutes before I go back to my desk to work.

I thought I’d thrill you with a photo capture of my idea even though I can’t live it.

Mind you I’m trying to imagine myself tottering around in heels and looking so sassy by myself at home.

Truth? You would find me on the floor tripped over. Never going to happen.

I need a drink

I need a drink

Welcome to Monday! What a day is all I can say.

I had my liver scanned today after a 4 month delay due to COVID lockdown and frankly the way I see it if there was anything to worry about then meh. As in oh well. Not much else I can add to that.

Work. Well that was full on and I don’t think I even caught up with myself, let alone anything anyone else may have asked me to do.

In the grand scheme, that’s the way it rolls for today.

When I say I need a drink. I don’t mean alcohol by the way. The title just fitted with the photo. But it’s the inference I just need a moment.

Let the day catch up with me with a nice hot cup of tea while my mushy head processes today.

It is only Monday. Good lord I hate to think what the rest of the week entails.

Anyhow in to the outfit for today and my mush gush over the people I blog for.

Designer Showcase. The Designer Showcase is one of the longest running fashion events in Second Life. Over 12 years now. Quietly steady and just there each month with a variety of people in Second Life bringing their works to the fore.

What I love about working with them is a genuine strong set of principles and a feeling of being incredibly appreciated. Ive been with them since I basically started and that’s been omg since 2016 ish. So long I’m losing my marbles already.

I’m wondering if the owner Aisha may consider a pension plan for me as I’ll likely be still blogging with her right to the death.

One thing about me is I truly appreciate those that gave me a chance. Who believed in me and took a chance on me. Designer Showcase certainly did and for that I owe them a lot of gratitude for letting me loose at making photos and videos using stuff.

Anyhow enough of that gush. I’m off to crack the kettle on and indulge in a Tetleys.

Meditate

Meditate

Have you ever tried to meditate? Like this? In the picture?

I decided I would give it a go and see if it balances all those jumbled things swirling in my head long enough for me to think logically. See if I could be like my character Beverley and find my inner ying yang.

Well…I spent my time trying to uncross my one leg which went into a cramp at the time, which made me laugh and then cry at the same time because frankly calf cramps hurt.

Honestly I cannot take things I’ve not really done before seriously. I’m terrible like that and my first reaction is always to end up laughing at myself.

I do meditate. Usually sipping a cup of tea and just being in my own zone. Yet I’ve always wondered if the position makes a difference to how it works.

I’ll be honest. I’ll stick to my cup of tea on the sofa. At least I can then get back up. 😂😂😂
