Goofball

 My new pet is a goofball.

The Dog and Pony Show is open! I wanted a friend the same size for Sofiya and I was really excited when Teegle came out with the Standard Poodle. So I took them to Luane's World and the first thing she did when we were posing for pictures was roll in the sand. 

I name her Leona. Officially she is called Duchess. I think on account of the way she look, like she is wearing a fur coat, fur hat and fur boots. Very posh... not! She is a goofball and when I rezz her, I thought.. LION! because of the mane. So I named her Leona.

I took them back home and rezzed them... and watched them interact. It took more than a minute for the interaction AI to kick-in but it was fun watching them. They do bark a lot... fortunately my neighbours live on islands so I am hoping they don't hear those barks.

The goofball and the scaredy 'cat'.

My parcel is on day cycle and I'm usually on during night time and I really do love the light decorations. It feels festive even when nothing is going on:)

My pets' personality

 A few days ago, I  rezzed my Teegle horses to watch them interact with each other. It was really sweet and I lost track of time watching them. They would touch noses and even groom one another. Other than that, they also have different personalities which to me is just amazing.

Peanut the brown Warmblood is quite lazy or maybe just shy because she would not move unless I touch her while Kanji the gray Warmblood is an extrovert. Every time she sees me, she would whinny and trots towards me and because I've set them to phantom, she would practically run into me LOL!

Today I rez my first ever Teegle horse Jesse the Icelandic to see how he interacts and so far he hasn't done anything out of the ordinary. But it has only been a day.

I have always loved the colours of Autumn and my plot of land is now in season.

Adventure in Rock Climbing

 August Premium gift is here and I am quite happy with the little rock climbing set.

Never would I go rock climbing in RL but this is SL and the avie will never get hurt. And it is a fun activity I can add to my own backyard! There are 2 routes to choose from and you challenge yourself by besting your best time climbing up that rock without falling.

The Old Man came to climb and obviously, he wasn't as nimble. Just look at him, struggling not to fall! Actually, in the pack, there is also a piece of rock with poses and we're using 2 of them.

The premium gift also comes with the tent, the folded sleeping bag, the lamp and a whole lot of other stuffs... 

Somebody showing off bareback... 

It's still pink for me

Today was clean-up cattery day. I had so many unboxed kittycats from way back last decade! When I finally finished, I took out my favorite pair from last Fall, Paint the strawberry girl and Eldan the farmer boy with his strawberry cart and made them both perma-pets. It made me want to clean-up some more...

So instead of cleaning out the cattery, I fiddle with my pink garden. I bought the Village street lamp from Canarun Weekend sale and when I turn on night cycle, my garden look quite romantic. I know the kitties love it.

And to end this post, a ChatGpt picture title: I come in Peace

Summer Tan in SL

Moon has put on a tan. I got the free Sarah Deetalez Fatpack Gift from Essential Inventory for SL premium members and decided that it was time to get some golden tan.

DeeTaleZ *SKINS* - EVOX Heads - SARAH - Premium Gift 

I chose Eastern for my tan.

And then I added wrinkles, freckles and nose shadings from Izzie's. No makeup is involved.

I am using Camila Lelutka EvoX head. I also tweaked the face shape slightly different from my previous face skin. I am also using Firestorm Ultra and PBR Nacon Summer Noon Windlight and I moved the sun so that there wouldn't be too much shadow on the face. Yes, all these 'operations' is time consuming and seems to take forever which is why I greatly appreciate all the fashionistas and photographers:)

At the beach

 It's bikini weather.

No need to hang out in the daytime heat when we can enjoy the beach while it's cooling down at sunset. We're both wearing Bombshell Bruni Bikini which we bought at the weekend sale. Only 69L for the fatpack. It was a very, very good deal! Pose by Loel.

I bought this bikini from Fashionably Dead a few weeks back during the weekend sale and this pose with the dove is an old one from LW but I've never had the opportunity to use it until now. Kittens from Jian.

I also want to show the back of this really marvellous hair Odyssey by Truth. It's wonderfully wind blown and it looks great from the front too. Unfortunately, it's only for picture-taking. Unless you don't mind looking like you're walking against the wind all the time:p Pose by Fashiowl.

Finally, a pink swimsuit from Carol's to clash with Moon's ginger hair! Pose by Stun.

Of course, not to be forgotten, a realistic picture of this woman in her swimsuit:) Pose by Stun.

Furbabies, Potted plants and Everything in Between

It was time to birth this year's KittyCats' SL23B furbabies and as a bonus, there is also a Princess Callie furbaby. She doesn't have a partner, but that's ok. She can share if she wants to hehehe.

My current pc has broken down. I am certain it's nothing serious, but when I moved that pc to another room, the monitor didn't work. I looked up the how-to-fix on the internet and I could only figure out step1... so, I had to send it off. Anyways, this ancient pc I am using can't even update the latest Firestorm and boy, does it go slow and slower.

I absolutely love Tres Blah's latest release for June Collabor... which is why Moon is wearing the same outfit on different days... I did debate on buying it because I have decided to always add wrinkles and lines on Moon's face. 17 years is a long time in SL and it was time for Moon to age accordingly. And then, when I demoed the romper, I said, what the heck, it's so cute! And Moon looks youthful from afar anyways!

The first picture has Moon wearing Tram's hair from Uber while the second is from Collabor. Both sims are no longer crowded. Actually, with so many events, you only have to wait a few days for the crowd to clear.

The hanging potted succulent behind Moon in the second picture is from Dreamland Designs. I bought it with their gift card for the month of June. This is for group members only. During the SLB23 event, group is free.

Lastly, below is a portrait of Moon using ChatGPT because I find it fun to use new technology... which will one day be old technology like this pc I am using:p
