So, yay, I'm on a trial with a family! They seem pretty awesome.. I'm hoping that this is my forever family I've been looking for. It's funny because my trial mummy only lives like 2 and a bit hours up the road from me in real life. But my trial daddy is all the way in the USA! I'm really hoping this works out because even my grandparents are awesome. They all breed tigers and have lots of games to play, including greedy and byngo (oh my goodness, that one is going to kill my lindens.. I had been staying away from it because I got addicted and started spending more than I was winning... so have to try to ration myself a bit with it. Yeah, good luck with that, self!) But they do seem very cool, mummy is a lot like me.. likes the same kind of things and when we were looking for a house to put down, we kept picking the same ones. Daddy said I get my farts from him though.. and my grandparents have said they're gonna take me all kinds of places and "spoil" me. I can't believe my luck. I was just thinking that I was going to be an orphan forever too and was considering just taking my panels down and accepting my fate.. but I'm so glad I didn't. Really hope this works out, because right now I'm so very happy! Watch this space! ♥

Ever have days where there is something you have to do in real life and you REALLY don't want to do it? I'm facing one of those days today.. so I didn't sleep well worrying about it and I don't want to do it at all, but I have to. It's one of those things that you can only put off so many times before you absolutely have to do it or else it messes everything else in your life up. Luckily my real life sister is going to come over and take me and hold my hand so to speak.. she rocks like that. But yeah, not looking forward to it one little bit. To be honest, I'll be glad when this week is over in real life.. but in Second Life I kinda want things to go in slow mo cos I'm enjoying it so much. I feel like by saying that though I'm setting myself up for a fall.. next post I'll probably be crying about how awful everything has gone. Lol. Hopefully not, but I don't want to be too positive either and then be disappointed.

Yesterday morning I was pretty depressed and ended up buying myself two KittyCatS to breed. It was an impulse decision. I put my Fennux away as the novelty wore off and they started getting really boring. I liked the interactivity that you can get with the KittyCatS which you don't have with Fennux. I love how I can cuddle them, play ball with them, lay down and play with them etc (although I wish the animations were more child avatar friendly, since I end up underground with the laying down one or hovering above the ground when I go to pet them) Minor annoyance, but I get that kind of thing a lot being so small. 

I'm still pretty into my Krafties. At the weekend there was the launch of the Vampire soul (for just the weekend only I think) Also there was double crafting exp, so I ended up lingering at the main sim for a bit and getting in on any crafting that was happening.. also got people to help me. I managed to get 2 Vampire souls made, I stuck one in a high stat Lupix, he turned grey with red eyes.. I called him Mr Bitey. I'm keeping the other one back for now, good to hold on to. I still have a bloodstone left over, guess it's useless now though. 

The mini turkey hunt starts tomorrow, which should be good. I enjoy a good hunt.. hopefully there will be some good prizes. I know Soken is participating and there is a cute shirt to be found, but not sure who else is in it yet.

Anyway, this outfit is from the last round of the Woodland Gatcha event. I love it.. so cute. I'm not usually a yellow kind of person, but this looks super pretty on. It comes with the dress, shoes, earrings, bracelet and wings. The wings, although a bit flimsy, since they're just a flexi texture, are cute too. I'm wearing a super cute ring my grownup friend, Nyo, bought me also. It's called a Chewnicorn ring.. it's got like a little unicorn head on it.. and apparently no unicorns were harmed in the making of the ring.. which I said is good to know! He got me the fatpack so I can wear this ring with several outfits, awesome sauce. Thank you! ♥

♥ Pandas Rock ♥

I'm sorry I've not blogged in a few days. I've been on trial with yet another family.. but this time I'm pretty sure it's a really good fit and will work out. I don't think they'll ditch me either (like my last two families), since their current daughter has been with them for 4 years. We have a really large extended family and I'm feeling really at home. I can't believe how well they're treating my brother and I.. I feel like I won the lottery of families. We've had story time every day, at least one book a day too. That's so awesome. They treat us like proper kids too. I dunno, it's hard to explain.. but I've never had it as good with any family before. I feel really loved and accepted in this family.. like I belong.

I haven't had the best luck with families over the years, most have split up and not wanted kids anymore, left SL or ditched me. The last one just up and left SL and didn't even have the decency to tell me herself that she wasn't coming back.. I had to find out on Skype from her "boyfriend" - To be honest I'm not sure I buy that it was her boyfriend that told me she's not coming back and it's none of my business as to why. I think it was probably her and it was just easier on her to pretend to be someone else so she could be heartless easier. The family before that ditched me and wouldn't let me back into the family unless I agreed to go to hospital in real life (Yes, I'm sick and I have a lot of issues.. but who doesn't have issues?!) Nobody is perfect! Plus, I was on a waiting list to receive help anyway (which I'm getting now, you'll be pleased to know.. and ironically started to get the help after they wouldn't let me back into the family.) My new family are not judgemental at all and have been so nice about everything.. my daddy couldn't believe people could treat me like that. Since he said that, I think I tend to agree. I knew it was crappy, but to have an outsiders perspective of someone who didn't even know me or know the people involved and still come to the same conclusion I did was an eye opener. I was such a mess over that particular family that I nearly ended my real life.. and looking back on it now, it was so silly to even contemplate doing that over them.. or over anyone really. I was so low; it was awful feeling that way. My new family actually care about me and don't interfere or tell me what I should do with my real life, they're being a supportive SL family and as much as they can advise me.. they'd never tell me what to do. They'd never judge me. I think they're so great and I hope I continue to feel this way about them for a long time.. and I hope they feel the same about my brother and I. 

In other news the Halloween Heist Hunt is now underway.. and if you haven't checked it out yet you should. It is truly epic. I'm really impressed with the hunt (I'm not just saying that because my store is involved either) Bit did a really amazing job with making it really interactive and fun. I won't tell you what you have to do as I don't want to spoil it for those of you who haven't done it.. but I urge you to. It really was fun and I was sad when my brother and I completed it. Also please donate on your way out if you enjoyed it like we did.. a lot of hard work went into that hunt and it was much appreciated. I really hope she does more hunts like that because it was new and different - yet worked flawlessly. If you don't know where to start, head on over to Cute Bytes (Hullaballoo Sim) and go grab your HUD and instructions. Take some friends with you.. it's something that you can all help each other with.. and these things are always more fun with friends.

A new round of Limited 50 is starting tomorrow I believe, or today I guess depending on your location. Pretty exciting! 

As you all know I absolutely adore pandas, so when I saw Buttons and Bows had a panda outfit out I had to have it. It's really nicely done and even comes with bamboo for your mouth to give it that extra bit of panda awesomeness. Great job, Buttons and Bows! I decided to go find a sim with bamboo to be my backdrop for this picture.. always find it good fun to go exploring new places too.

♥ Chalk & Cheese ♥

Okay, I lied.. there's no real cheese in this post.. well, unless you count me. I guess I have been known to have my cheesy moments though. But there definitely is chalk!

I just loved this pose from .click. that I found at Pose Fair 2013. It's adorable, there are a few variations over there featuring chalk (I picked up another too to blog at a later date) So many adorable poses over at Pose Fair.. and there were a few stores participating that sold poses for Toddleedoos. More than I thought there would be! Grab your mummy, daddy, aunt, uncles, grandparents, siblings and whoever else or whatever else your family is made up of and head on over to Pose Fair.. there's something to be found for everyone. 

However, I went to the Kawaii Fair with my mummy and Uncle and it was very disappointing.. if you're looking for ToddleeDoo stuff there it's very limited and personally I wasn't impressed. I think most stores just didn't quite understand the concept of Kawaii. Not much there for guys either, so the men in your family will probably be disappointed if you drag them along. I did find some cute panda cushions there, a hat (I'll have to go back maybe and grab those) and a pink panda that my Unkie Nyo got for me, thanks again Unkie Nyo.

This outfit from Candii Kitten Kids is so versatile. There's many ways it can be worn. I'm just showing off one way, but I also wore it without the shorts and crocheted sweater as a bikini to the beach the other day. It comes with cute bows for the bottoms to wear it as a bikini and a "butt ruffle" which just adds to the cuteness. But you can mix and match it however you want.

Anyways.. I've been dying to use this particular pose for a little while now and only now just had the opportunity to do so..
