Light is slowly fading, ebbing away like the tide, leaving a wordless melancholy. Seasons changing, shifting, urging me to slumber and rest with the setting sun. I close my eyes on the light. When they open I hope and pray for autumn’s quiet yet passionate colors to unfold.
Are the shadows growing? Are my eyes tricking me? Something has changed. Was it me? A quiet calm approaches and beckons me into its embrace. Who calls to me now with such familiarity?
Every parting is bittersweet. My old friend, I feel you near once more. Come closer and leave the kiss I truly long for.

She was bewitching to behold. Fire in her veins glowing righteous blue so bright you had to look away, yet dared not turn your gaze for fear of missing every stunning glimpse. Every step she took was a dance fit for the stage, only her stage a forest her heart dwelled in. Dancing partners the trees. Owls and crickets her orchestra. Moonlight kissed her skin as her soul shone in the darkness of Night’s Shadows.
When she broke into a beautiful disaster, her fire threatening to tear all asunder, her body burnt to ash floating upon a breeze. Pain fueled her passions. Darkness embraced her being; she reveled in it, craved it, cherished every aching breath. Love was her power; even broken, her heart overflowed like the sea at high tide. Like a phoenix she’d rise again, glowing brighter than every Time before.
Fire consumed her, yet she’d always survive, weathering every storm that came her way.

Quiet. Silence. Deafening stillness fills my room without your presence. My mind spins a mile a minute, then slows like grass in a gentle breeze. How do I do this again? Being on my own without another voice overpowering mine?
Comfort. Normal. Your presence was constant but what about your mind? Always elsewhere. Together but alone. Now I’m alone but no longer lonely. Finding myself again, remembering who I am and where I want to go.
Quiet. Silence. Filling the emptiness with songs of my heart. Searching for new passions to re-ignite my flames. You may see me, but you won’t recognize the woman I’m becoming. Whispering, you’ll wonder how I became what I am. Who I am.
The Cart Sale has been running for about two weeks now and we have about one week left! If you’ve missed previous posts, the Cart Sale is a shopping event where all items are 50L or less. Today I am giving you more peeks at what you can find there. Be sure to check the event out before it ends on April 15th.
One of the items I am wearing comes from Dark Water Designs. The Crochet Overlay Top is a cute form-fitting top and has a HUD included with a few color options. Sizes for Maitreya, Slink Physique and Hourglass, and Belleza Freya, Venus, and Isis mesh bodies are included. Next to me on the bed are a few items from Dark Knight Decor; the tea kettle and macaroons come in separate sets but go well together for a sweet afternoon treat. The lantern next to me is from The Dark Fae. Turn this cute piece on and light up your room with a bit of whimsy that comes in quite a few colors to pick from. Behind the lantern, you’ll see a vase of tulips and a planter of roses that both come from StoraxTree. Each has a selection of colors so you can find just the right one for any room or garden theme.
That is all I have for you today. Until next time. ❤

Hello everyone! I hope you are all staying safe and healthy in these crazy times. I know I’m slowly starting to go a bit more insane… With all of the time at home, you’d think we would be more productive with projects we’ve left unfinished for a while, but alas, we’re just trying to cope in these strange circumstances. One of the best ways to do so is to listen to some good music. What’s your favorite band, genre, song? Whatever makes you relax or feel upbeat, turn it up and dance around in your room or while you make some food.
Another good way to have some fun is shopping! I know some are struggling to save money while they are out of work, but there are some great deals in SecondLife that won’t break your bank. The Cart Sale at the Wash has begun and is chock full of items that are 50L or less. Some of what I am currently wearing is from the Cart Sale. My dress was created by Sweet Willows and there are seven different color/pattern options to pick from and only costs 10L. Every single color/pattern comes in mesh sizes fitted for Maitreya Lara, Slink Physique and Hourglass, and the Belleza Freya bodies. My hat is from Tiar, and while it is called Mens hat, I found it gives a fun twist to my look. It is modifiable to make sure you have the purrfect fit.
I will have more for again but don’t delay and grab these bargains before the event ends on April 15th.

Hey peeps! Linden Labs has made it so the SL Home and Garden Expo has a few more days! If you haven’t checked it out yet, you’re missing out on a great way to contribute to Relay For Life. As I stated in my previous post, there are creators with items up for grabs that contribute either 100% sale donations or 50% sale donations to RFL. In addition there is an auction and many creators have decorated homes to compete for the most donations to RFL. One of the homes I visited is on the water and named the Beach Cabin. House No. 11 is a cozy little home with a small living area, spacious foyer and bedroom upstairs, and an outdoor kitchen and dining area perfect for enjoying a view of the water. The dock also offers easy access to moor a boat. Come take a look at the wonderful work Alec Rogue has done on his build and donate some linden if you can to his donation kiosk. Every linden donated is a vote for their home and 100% go to RFL!
Happy exploring. ♥

February, the month of love and romance, is almost over. While most think of it as the time for couples, it’s also a good time to show ourselves a bit of self-love. A reminder if you will, that YOU are amazing and deserving of love just the way you are. Whether you fit into one of society’s supposed “perfect” boxes or dance to the beat of your own drum, we’re all a work in progress just trying to win our battles each day. So in honor of love and being true to ourselves, treat yourself this month. Buy yourself your favorite treat, watch your favorite show or movie, and just take a moment each day to look in the mirror and tell yourself “I’m awesome the way I am.”
With the onset of spring fast approaching, I often find myself wanting to redecorate to give my surroundings a fresh look. Sprucing up my home is therapeutic for me and I’ve found some lovely things recently. =EC Designs= has created some fun new furniture sets for your homes inworld which are currently being exclusively sold at the SL Home and Garden Expo. The Home and Garden Expo is a huge event that supports Relay For Life, a cause near and dear to many of us. One of their new adorable sets that is up for 50/50 Donations is the Garden Patio Set. Included in this set are a loveseat, chair, and table that are spring green and golden yellow. Both the chair and the loveseat have several female and male single sits which can be accessed in any sitting spot. Couples can cozy up together on the Loveseat to enjoy a nice afternoon in the sun.
If you’re looking for living room pieces, they have you covered there too with their Lawson Living Room set that has two different loveseats, an armchair, coffee tables, and a lamp which is one of their 100% donation sets. Their Gemini Lounger is up for 100% RFL donations as well. If you’re up for hunting, their Laced Up Chair is their hunt prize and will add a fun quirky vibe to any room in your house. Lastly, they have an item up for auction for the Expo. The Sheltered Lounge provides a cozy shady spot to relax or cuddle up with your loved one, which is being offered up in an event exclusive color. Be sure to check it out and help show some love to the cause!

As spring finally takes hold, I have more bargains for you to see that you can grab at the Cart Sale. The event officially ends April 10th, though some merchants may keep their booths open a few days longer. Check it out before it’s too late!
Today I am sharing more from =EC Designs=. In my last post I shared their adorable Spring Tea Set; they also have several other items up for sale that would look lovely in your garden. Pictured here are the matching Spring Chair, Spring Table, and Spring Bench which are all sold separately so you can choose which pieces you want. There is also an arch and a bridge that match these pieces to make a full set. Both the Spring Chair and Spring Bench have single sits for males and females; only the bench has PG couples animations. I found other pieces as well for my garden at the Cart Sale. The Morocan Candle & Ivy Lamp from StoraxTree adds a nice soft glow for a quiet evening outside and the Home Store has many cute things, one of which is the pond formed by gray stones. Pick these up to add to your landscaping collection.
For my new spring wardrobe, I picked up another dress, this time from battle fairy. The lydia set comes in six different patterns for you to choose from. Each set includes fitted sizes for Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus; Slink Physique and Hourglass, and Maitreya Lara mesh bodies. Each dress also comes with matching shoes for Belleza, Slink, and Maitreya feet. A word of caution though, the dresses are very short so you may want to wear some panties underneath it. My second outfit contains two other items from the Cart Sale. Sweet Willows has a very cute tube top that has a butterfly over the front in four different colors fitted for the Maitreya Lara body. My shoes are from Ciara’s Boutique and come with resize scripts so they should fit all types of SL feet which come in the 50L shoe fatpack. In this fatpack you’ll find several patterns of sneakers and heels that match the other clothing items Ciara’s Boutique is offering for sale.
There is a lot of other bargains to find at the Cart Sale but only a few days left so go check it out now! You’ll find the landmark below. See you next time! 🙂

Hello everyone! It’s been some time since I’ve last posted. My Muse took a little holiday but she’s been tempted back by a few events that have recently begun. Today I am sharing an item from one of my favorite shops, =EC Designs=, that is currently on sale at the SL Home and Garden Expo.
=EC Designs= has created a beautiful raft that will be perfect for lazy summer days in the heat on the river. There are so many poses loaded into this raft that you will never run out of options whether you are single or cuddled up with a special someone. Six avatars can sit on the All Aboard Raft which means you have quite a few seating combinations between six singles, 3 couples, or some variation of the two. While couples do need to sit in a certain spot for the poses to mesh appropriately for female and male couples, individuals may sit in any location and choose from female or male pose menus. No matter which menu you’re using, there are TONS of options. While at the SL Home and Garden Expo, this fantastic piece will be discounted and 100% of its sales go to Relay for Life so you will be contributing to a good cause while also getting a good deal! Also peek at their Harboside Gazebo and Porthole Clocks Gacha while you are there.
With the Cart Sale just opening today, more is on the way so check back soon! 🙂

Greetings beautiful people, it’s been awhile since I’ve posted and a lot has changed for me in a short time as it always does. I’m here this time to share some goodies you can find to help make your home festive and cozy for the holiday season. Cart Sale opened a few days ago with lots of bargains and Dictatorshop has new items up for grabs as well. If you’re unfamiliar with the Cart Sale, it’s held at the Wash and features items on sale for 10 lindens and merchants are allowed to sell one item for 50 lindens. The current round is Winter Wonderland themed and there’s some great wintery attire to find like the jammies from Sweet Willows. I found the Jester set fun but there are some other sets available that are more holiday themed if you prefer. Each jammie set comes in sizes for Maitreya, Slink Physique, and Slink Hourglass mesh bodies. The fit is really nice and makes the bum look great! There are some new releases from Dictatorshop that I have out, the first of which is the Chesterfield Coffee Table from Dictatorshop. Two versions are available, PG or Adult Vanilla, which allows you to pick what you need to complete your living room set. In the Adult Vanilla version, there are singles poses for both female and males as well as couples poses that will make your toes curl. By clicking the logo, you can change the wood textures and metal textures. Dictatorshop also has a new fireplace in the main store that comes with a bondage version and a decor only version. Textures are customizable and you can choose from a selection of art photos to display or add your own. The Chateau Bondage Fireplace has poses that work for one submissive or two and is a good option for people who enjoy objectification play. For both the table and fireplace, please note that I have slightly tinted them darker to match my cabin a little better.
To add some festive charm to the room, I have a couple things from KK Home that are at the Cart Sale. The Hunter Log Rack goes well with any fireplace and will help you stay warm inside while the weather gets cold. I also grabbed the Nutcracker to place on the mantle because it reminds me of the ones I own in real life.
Lastly, Dark Knight Decor has some great pieces at the Cart Sale that are festive and a little quirky. Two Shadowboxes are up for grabs. I grabbed the blue version and hung it up on my wall for a little winter sparkle.
I will be sharing more sneak peeks so check back soon for more Cart Sale goodies!

Saying goodbye to the past. Took my last look. Never turning back.
Leaves falling, slowly turning darker, drier, more brittle with each passing day. Ground crumbling beneath our feet. Announcing a change running its course. You can’t see the end. It blends in with the horizon, farther than you can see. Further than me.
Each step takes me closer. To the Dark. To the Light. Will you join me on this path? Or leave me to find my way? As I chase the Dream, you hesitate, scared to take the Leap.
This is my last post for this round of the Cart Sale. There is still so much to see so I highly recommend taking a look before the event ends on September 5th. All links listed below the credits.
If you’re looking for knits to start adding to your fall wardrobe, JellyRoll has you covered with their Hello Autumn dresses. I paired the one in Pine with some of my Blueberry jeans because it can be a bit brisk outside in the morning. Three fall colors are available, each for 10L. Sizes included are five standard mesh models and fitted models for 3 Belleza, 2 Slink, Maitreya, and TMP mesh bodies. Some clipping may occur with some poses and pants depending on fit. You should have no trouble if you wear it as a dress though.
Also at the Cart Sale are some vegetables to plant in your garden. I have a fondness for pumpkins, so i could not resist picking up the ones from B’s 25! to prepare for fall. Get the Circle Garden set which gives you the option of a fully planted plot, an empty plot, and all the vegies on their own to make your garden the stuff of your dreams. This is perfect for landscaping or having some fall fun with your family.
Lastly, if you are planning to garden, pick up the beautifully crafted Garden Cart from Dictatorshop to help move your plants about the yard. Three versions are available at the Dictatorshop mainstore: PG, Adult Vanilla, and Adult Kink. While not brand new, this piece is great for those who like a snuggle, or more, amongst nature. Menus on the PG version do not have any adult content, whereas only the Adult Kink version includes bondage content. You can change the texture of the Garden Cart by clicking the handle to match any of your outdoors tools. Check out all the details on the Dictatorshop website or try the demo in the shop.
See you all again soon and grab those 10L deals at the Cart Sale before they’re gone!
