Day 115 - Lazy Summer

I was sitting around earlier thinking about how much more calm this summer is compared to last summer.




Last year at this time, we were making the final preparations for my daddy's surgery and it was blazing hot and everything was just crazy. It was not a fun summer.

This summer is a lot more relaxed, if you don't count my finally taking my fitness by the horns and forcing myself to work out almost daily. But I have time now to sit and hang out and chat. I don't do a lot of those things, but I have TIME to, and really? That makes all the difference.

Day 114 - The Best Yard!

My friend Emerald is pretty awesome. She's bright, witty, and the kind of writer I'd like to be one day. She's also one of the original Bluebonnet residents and has been on the island with me pretty much since I took it over. But the BEST part of being Em's friend and neighbor?

She totally has the BEST YARD.




I have absolutely NO idea where she finds half of the things that end up in her yard, but I'm glad she does, because it's so much fun to look at!!

Day 113 - Party's Here!

We're having a little casual summer park party today at 5pm SLT! Everyone is invited [well, if I like you, anyway]!




Aldwyn is DJing, and the dress code is casual. :) We haven't had a party on Bluebonnet in a while, and Aldwyn has never DJed in SL before, so it should be a good time! Just come hang out and chat and stuff!

Day 112 - Living Room Dance Party

So finally after 2 years together, Aldwyn is going to unleash his DJ skills on me. LOL! Actually, he's going to have some free time this coming week and we want to have a party!!! As soon as we get the date set, I'll let you guys know so you all can come and dance and stuff. :) Tonight he was testing music and stuff so we had a little dance party in our living room.




I feel bad that we don't invite people over more often. But our time together is so limited recently, usually when we ARE together, we only have an hour, sometimes less, to just hang out together and I don't always want people with us. I think our schedules are settling down a little bit so yay for that. :)

Day 111 - A little time together

Aldwyn and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary on Saturday. :) Well...we wished each other happy anniversary. As far as celebrating it, there wasn't a lot we could do since we pretty much never have a lot of time together lately. Time zones, you know. I'm ready for bed [or am in bed] by the time he can usually get in world. Staying up late the way I used to just isn't in the cards these days. At least, not too often.

But, he was able to get in early tonight to hang out with me. All we've done is lie on the couch, but hey, that's good enough. :)

Day 110 - I'll never be done!

I swear, decorating is one of those things that I am always doing in SL, and yet I feel like I'll never be done with it.




When it was just me on my own, my houses were always girly. But since I'm married and have a boy living with me, I try to not make it TOO feminine in the house. Of course, I don't think I succeed very well in that, but he doesn't seem to care if we have flowers and hearts around.

Last night as I was attempting to decorate the bathroom, I realized that SL has eaten MORE of my home stuff - like a bathroom set that I can't get back because the creator is no longer in SL, and my pretty cakestand from Artilleri!! So unfair. At least I can get the cakestand back, but that's not the point. It's the principle of the thing. There are principalities! LOL!

I should be getting off my ass and going to the gym, but my legs hurt, so I think that's a no for today. I'll have to go tomorrow, though, because today we're celebrating Father's Day with my dad and his usual choice of restaurant is NOT a health food place. And I'm TOTALLY okay with that because Saturdays are my cheat days! :)

Day 109 - In The Bedroom

Did you ever wonder what goes on in the bedroom of people you know? Here...have a glimpse into our bedroom life!




Yep. I jump on the bed while we talk and I decorate the new room.

What? You thought you'd get to see something dirty? Sorry! Not today! :-p

Day 108 - Yes, again.

Yes, again. I changed houses on us yet again. Blame Ulaa. She comes out with a new house and I want to decorate it and live in it. I need a whole full sim just for us to have fully decorated houses. I started decorating tonight. Aldwyn says watching me decorate is like watching Samantha Stevens - things appear out of thin air and I move them around with my finger. Is this his nice way of calling me a witch? I guess it could be worse. He could have said I'm like Samantha Giancola.




I'm up WAY later than normal because I was talking to Al & Ulaa on skype, but I really must get in bed. It's another gym day tomorrow. Have I mentioned in here that I've started at a local gym? It's nice! I have a trainer and everything because obviously I don't know how to do stuff on my own anymore. But it means I'm usually dead tired by 11pm and that doesn't leave me much time to hang out with people. But staying up late for those two is well worth it. At least, once in a while. :-p

Day 107 - Tired

What a week!! I'm hoping that after Monday, this coming week will be a little less nuts.

Day 106 - Got Milk?

Someone needs to pop me in the face when I go more than a day or two without blogging in here. Geez man. LOL

I was all set to do a cute blog post about breakfast this morning, but then I realized something. MY MILK JUG IS SUPER BIG!




I don't know if that's the 2 gallon size or what, but it's huge. I might have to wait for Aldwyn to come home and lift the jug for me so I can have my Super Banana Crisp.

In the physical world, I'm eating a bowl of oatmeal and drinking water, and that's not nearly as amusing as cereal and a big milk jug. Thank goodness I have my SL breakfast to entertain me.
