~At the begining

We were strangers, starting out on a journey

Never dreaming, what we'd have to go through

Now here we are, I'm suddenly standing

At the beginning with you

~Lyrics from Anastasia~

At the beginning ... it all starts with a hello, and a friendship. I've been so lax on my blogging lately. Seems the last year has really thrown my family some curve balls. From having surgery, going back to work. My son finally got the dog he's wanted for years to only have it get spooked and take off. After hours of seraching, strangers searching via social media he was brought home the following morning with a very sad ending. My son was devestated. Two weeks later my daughter was in a car accident, thankfully she's okay.. the car.. sadly not so much. And now we wait as my childrens dad makes the hard decision to put to rest their dog they've had since my oldest was 7. What a few months. Phew. But blogging is what I love and I'm passionate about it, so sometimes I don't blog because I don't want to throw together a half assed post or half assed pictures.

Lets talk about what I'm bringing to you today. In the top picture I want to show off the stunning new makeup by La Boheme. Santana is going to be bringing us mesh appliers soon for lips and eyes, but I've still not convinced myself I love my mesh head, maybe I'll patiently wait for her updates. Until then I'll keep loving her makeup for the regular sl avatar. Stunning! You'll be able to find these makeups at Skin Fair coming soon. My poses you'll find by !bang and they're at We <3 Roleplay.

There are 10 different poses with this pose pack AND mirror poses. I love how they are fierce yet sexy! :) My shirt is by Kathleen and it's only available for a few more rounds at the Cosmopolitan room. I always find such sassy sales there.

And life is a road that I wanna keep going

Love is a river, I wanna keep flowing

Life is a road, now and forever, wonderful journey

I'll be there when the world stops turning

I'll be there when the storm is through

In the end I wanna be standing

At the beginning with you

My hair is Opal by Doe, new at C88, isn't it adorable? I love the updo, it's elegant yet playful, the long length's at the front curling up in the back. Just love it.

I can't get away from Dark Passions Nails sometimes, I'm an addict to nail polishes but find I only wear La Boheme or Dark Passions and not because they're my sponsors but because I LOVE THEM. :) Right now BCreative is participating in 20Twenty where you can get discounted items around the grid which I think is awesome, I love some of the other events, but I love being able to go to a creators store and shop around. I wish more events would start doing this. This set is called Musette's Manus II, I'm only showing you SOME of the colors that are offered, but really these are awesome, I love the flipped colors, soft and edgy at the same time. So GO GO GO before the event ends today.

~I am the Fireeeee

Am I brave enough?

Am I strong enough?

To follow the desire

That burns from within

To push away my fear

To stand where I'm afraid

I am through with this

Cuz I am more than this

I promise to myself

Alone and no one else

My flame is rising higher

I LOVE the sound of a good motorcycle. I have to admit that I'm a Harley girl. I don't like to get on them though, but I admire them and the power behind them. When I was 15 I lost a very good friend to a horrible accident. It made me respect and fear motorcycles. I was probably in my late 20's when someone finally talk me on to riding on the back of his bike. I pouted, I stomped my feet, I cried but finally I knew that my friend would want me over my fear so I bravely put my helmet on, swung my leg over, and settled in. I clung. Thankfully, the friend took it slow, he drove me around the parking lot first let me get the feel of the bike, when I got a little more comfortable he hit the road. Oh lord it was free'ing. Was so much fun. Then later on I dated someone who had a bike who made me fear them again.. Meh. :) I still respect them though, and still admire them, I just don't want to be on one.

But on Second Life?! I can ride them without fear or inhibitions. This pose was a new release for Jan Pose Lover event, but I've been abit lax in my blogging and getting things done. Trying to adjust to a new job as well as other things. This pose is devine, makes me feel like I could conquer the world and be sexy while doing it. I knew when I got this pose then saw the Lapointe jacket at Project limited that I wanted to blog this. I love these types of jackets and can't get away with wearing stuff like this in real life so here we are! Second Life finds. :) The jacket has a texture changing tshirt under it so you can change the tshirt, you can also make the jacket just straight black too if you want.

And of course, I had to head over to Genre and get this new polish by Dark Passions called "The Prowl." It's jungle and my pictures do not do these pretties justice. I love the bright colorful colors. Makes me feel wild and free.

~All that I am

I am the one winged bird for flying

Sinking quickly to the ground

See your faith in me subsiding

See you prime for giving in

I give you all that I am

Autumn is in the air. With autumn comes one of my favorite seasons. I love the fall, the falling leaves, the pumpkins and the crisp air that brings in cool fronts to the Midwest.

It also brings ciderfests, pumpkin patches and more. The pose above is by Something New Poses and Props, it comes with the pumpkin stand, the pumpkin prop i'm holding in both hands. I really love this dream of Pandora's Box because it's very fallish and just welcoming as you walk around and take in the beauty of fall. I don't know if you have to pay a join fee to join Pandora's Box of Dreams, but if you do, it's well worth it just to be able to rez on this amazing sim. They're on dream 5 right now.The pose I'm using is called Grandma's Pumpkins and is available at The Autumn Effect Hunt, this started Sept 15th and runs into Mid October, I'm sorry that I don't know the exact date. And the Autumn Jacket I'm wearing is by No Name, and it's also available at The Autumn Effect. So just pop to those store locations and find the hunt item. I know both stores have plenty of hunt prizes available right now.

I am the sound of love's arriving

Echoed softly on the sand

Lay your head upon my shoulder

Lay your hand within my hand

I give you all that I am

This is totally my face when my loving husband Cedric tells me that we can't take home the 80 pound punkin. *frowns* hehe.. Seriously, when my son was little I bought him his first pumpkin and it weighed in at a wopping 80 pounds. It was bigger, and taller then him! Was awesome though, I carved it and then stood him inside it for pictures. Fond memories.

And I breathe where you breathe

Let me stand where you stand

With all that I am

I am the white dove for a soldier

Ever marching as to war

I would give my life to save you

I stand guarding at your door

I give you all that I am

I knew that when !bang sent out a request for bloggers that I HAD to apply. I never thought I'd get accepted especially since I have three other pose sponsors, but I did get accepted. I have admired Luna's poses probably as long as I have been on SL so I'm always eager to buy them, support events she's at etc. This pose "My World" was recently available for her 50L Friday. When this came across my facebook feed, I KNEW that I had to own it. This is my world, Cedric. He's all that I am and more. I love the tenderness of this pose. He always has my back. Always. My favorite guy.

The make up that I am wearing is by La Boheme, lipstick is a previous release but available in her store: [LB Kissable Glitter Lips] Set 1 - Gold 5. The eye make up, [LB Glamour Eyes] Rhiannon S1 - 6 which Santana has SEVERAL amazing sets out at the Cosmetic Fair get these amazing goodies until Sept 30th just 2 more days before they're available in her store.

I am the one winged bird for flying

Sinking quickly to the ground

I am the blind man for a watchdog

I am prime for giving in

I'll show you all that I am

Here's the full pose, I realize I'm floating off the ground but that's how he makes me feel. Actually, Luna's poses are some of the EASIEST to adjust it's all in a box, no pose balls, just hop on the box, adjust, no unlinking, nothing. Quite simple even for those like me who stink at editing. :)

And I breathe so you breathe

Let me stand so you'll stand

With all that I am

Here's a close up shot of the nail polish that I am wearing by La Boheme, so elegantly pretty! This is from Shelter set 1, there are 10 colors to each of these sets.

Various poses by !bang including some from stands 370-379, 390-394, TBC Set 1 and 2.
