Halloween Decs are up ...

Oh my poor, poor Land Impact ... with so many gorgeous Halloween decs on offer I say 'To Hey' with my house furniture and go to town using just about my entire LI allowance :) Yay !

I'll be sleeping on the floor for the month in my 1LI sleeping bag ... but it's all worth it, every single Halloween prim, I welcome you all. x

Re-decorating :)

The re-decorating has begun ...the kitchen and living-room are being addressed as I write this. I somewhat like the colour of the base coat I put on in the kitchen, might just stick to that colour for the moment until I know what my new kitchen will look like. I was surprised that it only took one coat to cover the deep blue it was before ... that's the little luxuries you get when buying high quality paint ;) ... and now that I messed about trying other colours I will have to paint it again ... sigh ... I do like the yellow, though, for the living-room, so maybe the whole exercise wasn't a complete waste :)

I am so not looking forward to tidying this up ...

 ... oh is there a sale in town? *grabs purse and shopping bags*

The Living-Room above and Kitchen below

Everything I needed to re-decorate came from Decor Junction and Anthony's Republic ... it's lovely if everything you need is under one roof (well, two :), saves trailing around town with heeps of shopping bags. ( One of the ladders by Six O'clock, Chair by DRD, Settee by Scarlet Creative )

The Movers have been ...

 Just came back from shopping, pleasantly surprised that the movers had been ... very tidy folks, need to keep them in mind for when I move next (not that I can see another move on the cards in the near-ish future ... well, I can ... but what am I even thinking - haven't even unpacked yet and already pondering of flitting ...)

Anyway, quickly relieving me of my shopping and taking a quick pic ... 

The inside is a neatly stacked as the patio and they have also put my kitchen together ... yikes, I didn't have the heart to say that I changed my mind on this one. But at least I can make a cuppa whilst pondering where on earth I am going to start. 

Especially since I have ordered my Lighting and my new Fireplace and I have this sinking feeling that there is going to be some building work needed to make the Fireplace fit ... it's not going back :)

Right, off I go and rummage through my boxes ... and think ... now where's the G & T ? :) ... oohh ... somebody left a wee pressie there as well.

Moving Day in Second Life ~ My new home

Moving back into Second Life ... oh I missed you ...

 Finally, after quite some years, I have moved back into the virtual loveliness of Second Life.  Of course, the promise of a shiny new home sped up my decision somewhat ... when I saw the range of new homes on Bellisseria, my heart was firmly set on 'The Shelley', a Victorian dwelling, but I had to go onto a list ... and wait ... and wait some more. An offering of a House-Boat, as lovely as it looked, was rejected, hoping that I did not just let my one chance pass. But no sooner than this fleeting thought passed by, I saw the listing I was waiting for and in a rather un-ladylike mild panic, I pounced!

And here it is on Moving Day.

There is a little Slideshow on my You Tube channel, showing a little of the neighbourhood, the walk approaching the house and a tour through the rooms and garden ... I took the shots on the day I moved in with all the boxes, knick-knacks and bags scattered about and my 80's throwback kitchen, which was cool back then but I really need to re-think this one, why I even brought it with me ... I could have saved the movers a fair bit of bother, it was quite awkward to get through the door ...

Anyway, the stress of moving is fading and my thoughts turn to decorating and gardening and, of course, exploring the neighbourhood ... and spending money ... lots of it! Yay !
