To hell with the sugar – I’ll take the SPICE

To hell with the sugar - I'll take the SPICE

I wanted to share this with you all…
This is what I do while blogging items with HUDS… I pile them on and play with them until I get a color combo I love.

And to do this, I need to have everything within eye contact. Now, this is not how I normally I have them laid out. I have them spread all over my screen but, I do have all of these attached all over my screen, positioned so I can see my avatar as I change the colors.

Have you ever wondered

As you can see, I have everything attached. The only part of my outfit that didn’t have a hud was my Tabou jeans!
There is also a hud for my skin but, I didn’t include it in this post because well, I used a previous Glam Affair skin from, a past Uber event. I had finished all the photos by the time the new skin was posted for the Collabor88 round by Glam Affair, so I didn’t get a chance to include it in this post but, no worries, I will do another post, asap.

The Darkness is currently running, and one of the awesome stores I blog for, Leluck, released these beautiful Glitter Shadows for it!

There are 8 colors, and of course, pink was my favorite! I have done my best to share them in order but, hey, sometimes, my rez just hates me, and I have to share them as they come in!
One thing I will point out to the consumers is that these use both the Eyeshadow layer and the Eyebrow layers on the Catwa Head. So if you are a brow applier wearer, you may run into issues but, they are so beautiful, you should look into wearing your skin brows!

Another fun thing I like to do is, find fun poses to show off my nails! I used the Vogue 2017 series from, Nantra for this pose!

As you can see, it shows them off perfectly!

I am so loving the Bento poses. I have the software to make them but, I do not have the “know how”, so I rely on places like Nantra to fulfill my bento pose needs.

Last but not least, not even a little, I wanted to show a close up on my boots, as well as, my puppy.

With these boots, you can change everything!
I, of course, went with the “lights” hud, but you can choose the darkness one if that is more your style. I love how many pink choices there are! I spent an hour just playing with the HUD because, well… oh the colors! haha.

The puppy was a gift from my friend, Max!
We went over to Jian because, this puppy was actually at the Arcade, and this being January, we had to check the store. When I say the Jian is animal gacha heaven, be assured, I am not joking!
I could spend hours there, just playing with the machines, if I have unlimited resources, hehe.

Anyway, thank you for the gift! I love it!

A couple side notes before I end this very long post.
I decided to wait til the end so that people that would prefer not to see my personal “issues” in SL, could just skip to the end but, here it is…

Warning!!  Now is the time to run to the bottom, if you want to skip all this!

First… 

There is another blogger, I am not going to name them but, she made some very hurtful comments about how I choose to grieve over the loss of a loved one. And, well, I just cannot let it slide. She wrote some harsh words, telling me I need mental help because she feels that I am “mentally unstable”, grieving over the loss of my dad, by writing about it here. According to her, I am using people for sympathy.
To this person, and to anyone that feels the same way.
My father inlaw has a very strong impact on my life. Him & my mother inlaw, they saved me. No one realizes that I had a really hard life. I had, and have fears of abandonment, so, when I met them, I was scared, and worried that they would not accept me, and it took a while but, we all got to a place where I felt safe. For the first time in many years. He was my DAD. I know many people have had different experiences with inlaws but, they were, and are, my parents. They could have treated me like a black sheep… A stain on their name but, they didn’t. They saved me.
I became a good mother because of the chances that they allowed me to have. And I will be forever grateful to them.
To have some stranger, I barely know, put me down, for mourning over the loss of a great man. It kills me a little inside. To know that there are really people out there in the world that have no heart. That receive pleasure by making others hurt… well, I honestly do not think it is ME who needs the mental help.
I love my father inlaw and mother inlaw. To me, they will always be Mom & Dad. And I will mourn his passing, for a very long time. I will have good days, and bad, and sometimes those feeling, will be shared on my blog.
If you do not wish to see these feelings, then you can either just skip them all, and go right to the details, or, not read them at all. However, I hope that, as I have come to care about what happens to others that, others will continue to care what happens to me.

Secondly…

I am going to keep this part short, and I am sure many of you are sighing in relief.

A close friend, or someone that I thought was close, felt that I made a joke on a comment about the memory of the loss of their parent. I would never have done this. I know myself well enough to know, that the loss of a parent, can feel like someone being ripped from your soul… To that person, who has decided not to be my friend anymore because of this comment,  I am sorry that you felt that whatever I said was a “joke”… I honestly do not think that I did anything of the sort…but, if that is how you felt, I am sorry that something I said, upset you. I wish you had come to me.

Well, that is it for now, and as promised, here are your details, and I shall see you all in the next post!
