It looks soooooo easy, but it takes so much practice and talent! That's another thing I've done a couple of times. Not to this extent by any means, but done full makeup just because. No one is going to see it except me, but glamming it up in my pajamas has been a relaxing giggle a couple of times. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm wanting more silence then I ever thought I would. During the day, I'm working. When we worked in our offices, we'd often just sort of yell back and forth to each other, or walk into each other's offices to talk, etc. Now, though, it's all about dings. MS Teams dings, Zoom dings, FB dings, forum dings, Discord dings, Outlook dings... and that's only on my desktop. At the same time my phone is dinging with all those same dings, and so is my iPad. And then Alexa dings to let me know my Amazon order is on it's way. SO MUCH DINGING. Yes, I could turn it all off but I'm also afraid of either missing something important, or my boss trying to get hold of me and thinking I'm not working (this is absolutely not her style and she couldn't care less if I'm sitting at my desk or taking a nap on the couch as long as my work gets done). So at 5:00 on the dot, I shut it all off. I turn on my governor's press conference that starts exactly the same way every single day. "We will get through this. We will get through this together. Repeat it with me - We will get through this, we will get through this together." He goes for an hour, and it's my signal that workday has ended and now it's me time. After that, it's an hour of quiet time spent usually on Discord, or sometimes inworld, chatting with my fella. Same routine every single weekday. It's silly, but it's helping me. Humans need routines. Now you know why. It's why I make a point most days to go to bed around the same time and get up around the same time, even on weekends. Routines, habits, yeah. It's our bodies' way of telling us all this "tech stuff" really isn't good for us because it disrupts our bodies' natural rythyms.

No one is going to see it except me, but glamming it up in my pajamas has been a relaxing giggle a couple of times. I’ve kept to fully dressing most days, it lifts my spirits. Only on bleaching day once a week do I wear clothes I don’t care about, lol. My fashion friends have been hosting some virtual teas, we like to share our coordinate shots, sometimes wearing but just as often in a flat lay. I’m not very good at flat lays but I still like to do them sometimes. Today I’m lazy in my nightgown though, I confess! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kali Wylder Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I'm reminded of the optimistic little kid who was digging through the SHlT in the forums, muttering,"There's got to be a pony in here somewhere! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't, either. I started to collect at one point because they had a ton of them available at one of the SL Birthday events, but I wound up just boxing them up. A lot of the old ones are high prim so hard to have on display anyway (I guess because they were created in the pre-mesh days). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too high for permanent display, great for show n tell. lol Do any of the Lindens create mesh Linden bears? I don't think so. I think one of the requirements for the job is to create your own from prims. In other words, learn a bit about building before diving in. I think that is a good thing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just dug a few out and had a look, and most of them are prim. I have one from Warp Linden that is mesh, as is the ACS Ebbe Linden bear from late 2019. I guess the newest Linden to have a bear (that I know of) is Strawberry Linden, but I don't have one of her bears so can't check it.

Lindens Strawberry Linden Posted May 21, 2020 Lindens Share Posted May 21, 2020 My Linden Bear is very newby and primmy because I can't build at all. Feel free to IM me for one, as long as you promise not to make fun of me for it. 🙃 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as it isn't a gargoyle that looks more like Kermit the Frog got ran over by a MACK truck, I dun care. You made it. That is what counts. You put the time and effort in.

Lindens Strawberry Linden Posted May 21, 2020 Lindens Share Posted May 21, 2020 I just sent it to Sylvia, she can probably confirm that it's definitely a gargoyle. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
