Dafadilia Wayfarer

Pet Delight: I discovered yesterday that one of my favorite creators makes rigged earrings for evo x elf ears. I bought a pair I liked, gifted one to my twin sister and and my alt too...and sent a thank you message to the creator. A few hours go by and I'm hanging out at the Fantasy Faire with my husband when I get this really kind message from her in turn, but she also sent me the rest of the pieces of jewellery that go with the earrings. I was so embarrassed because this beautifully kind gesture not only made me speechless, but I started crying because of how much this meant to me. I responded really awkwardly to her and apologized for doing so and we had a lovely conversation after. This meant so much to me after all the meanness I've been witness to lately. To not only see kindness, but extreme generosity as well. I never expected the gifts. I was just thrilled with my beautiful new earrings and wanted so much to thank her for them. The whole experience was wonderful.

I've tried working with those ears in the past and some have luck with them. I never have. I have adjusted many elf ears over the years and I'm pretty much done working with elf ears that aren't attached to a head. It becomes a headache to do so. I got spoiled with Catwa and Lelutka.

Congratulations! I adopted my daughter Verity back in 2016 when zooby babies were still prim babies. My husband and I updated her to animesh and we both think they are the best. We tend to be biased though. The creator of zooby is always so nice, helpful and genuine. She is fair to her customer base which I think is important. My daughter's care cost is minimal compared to all the fun times she helps create by existing in sl with the rest of my family circle. With zooby you have a wide range of furniture, clothing items, interactive toys, etc to make the experience more enriching. They are adorable babies. They can't get sick. Their daily care of feeding, etc isn't a requirment. I just personally like to keep up my daughter's care. It is a personal preference. What you want out of the experience of being a parent in sl, etc. I would really go look at the zooby store and see what it has to offer. If you have questions, I would ask their helpful staff in group. It is a big committement so I would just take the time to explore options. Including visiting other companies that make animesh babies since zooby may not be for everyone. I know there is also funsies too although I don't know too much about them.

I find myself at the Duskfall Court when I'm feeling overwhelmed with the other areas. It is very peaceful there.

The Duskfall Court...such a beautiful area of the Fantasy Faire!

I know that. I just enjoyed working with both the Senra head and body, but I'm too lazy to adjust elf ears to it.

Such beautiful and creative looks! This really makes me want to try Senra again, but that won't happen since the head doesn't have an elf ear option. Cannot go without my elf ears.

I never took people pointing out the negative of resilience as not understanding, but just trying to start a discussion by covering all sides of a topic. Including why anyone would need exercises to build a resilience to things they experience in their second life. That is what confused me the most. The moment I thought I could finally understand enough to respond, all thoughts expressed that weren't exactly conforming or coinciding to a certain way of thinking would get shut down. That isn't a discussion of the topic at hand in my opinion. Of course just how I see it. And we all know about opinions.

Better to behave naughty raven...

Just want to say...Exactly this. Worded perfectly.

Yes it is and my sis and I do too!

My brain hurts from reading the entirety of this thread. It is a pain that was obviously self inflicted since I had the choice to read or not. So I have learned that perhaps I shouldn't of continued to read through a topic that was made confusing the more it was discussed. Like things that have happened in my sl over the years that were negative experiences for me. There haven't been many in sl thankfully, but I have made a point to learn from each experience things I could actively do differently to avoid those types of experiences from happening again. I can't control other people's actions, but I can control my own. I take responsiblity for my actions because again, the only person I have control over is myself. I learned to put up personal boundaries for self care. My family and friends know those boundaries and I know theirs. We all make the agreement to respect said boundaries for all of our own sanity. That is why the family and friend group I have in sl was established years ago and has lasted to the present day. My rl has been complicated and difficult enough so I do everything in my power to make sure my sl is a mini holiday for me when I login. I don''t have any special techniques or exercises. Just learning from past experiences I've had. I simply call that common sense though. Not resilience.

Peeve...kind of: When my husband knows I have been excitedly counting down the hours until the Fantasy Faire opens since yesterday so decides to start blasting the song "It's the most wonderful time of the year..." while I am in the kitchen making us lunch. The sarcasm is real in our household! 🙄 Peeve...kind of: When him and I are trying to get a cute photo in sl and he points out what the mushrooms remind him of (nothing good by the way) and now I cannot unsee what he pointed out about them. Just nightmare fuel. 😆

Ready for the Fantasy Faire...our favorite event of the year in sl!

Hubby and I up at 4 a.m. wide awake and hanging out at home. 🙄

It might be an idea to pick up the Maitreya update to get LaraX and demos for reborn and legacy bodies. Start expermenting with your shape with the free LaraX, the reborn and legacy demos. Take your time and see what body works for you before spending money on a new body. I would take the time to find the body that works for you.

Sitting her with a cuppa and laughing so hard tears are running down my cheeks. Thank you guys. This has been an awesome read. 🤣
