Welcome to Templemore City…an entire sim dedicated to showcasing the best live music talent and DJs in SL.  Templemore is the brain child of Luis Lockjaw …created from his passion for music and the desire to have a place where the diverse SL population can come together to listen to music performed by artists from around the world.  Luis (suit jacket and tie) and, his best friend Gravey Jones can often be found tweaking the Templemore City build and supporting musicians during their sets at the live venues.
addition to housing several music venues, each with its own unique vibe, Templemore City  is also an amazing cohesive build where you can stop by to take a stroll around the main square, wander off the side streets or enjoy the old time carnival rides.  It’s a great place to spend an afternoon or evening checking out the amazing music offered, enjoying the company of other SL music enthusiasts and don’t forget your camera because there are so many fantastic photo ops all over the sim. <3<3

Gravey Jones is also a musician who performs in Templemore City and you can find a sampling of his music on his SoundCloud.  Luis is constantly searching for new artists to add to their venues and you will find a line up of who is performing on the Templemore City Google Calendar.» View author and full post…

Acts of kindness…no matter how small or large…benefit everyone; even those not directly involved.  When we take the time to do one simple thing for someone else…we are creating a chain of good will that we simply have no idea how far it will eventually reach.
It doesn’t take genius, extraordinary gifts, money, power or prestige to do something to help someone…and when someone does something kind for you…pay it forward…create a chain of good will…it is the best way to truly show your gratitude.
Thank you Anna James and Edinei Montingelli (from Flickr) for the kindness you showed me yesterday and for having such lovely souls.

I’ll update this post with the outfit details later today…I just wanted to get it out before I run out the door to do my errands.  Have an amazing SL/FL day…stay captivated and pay it forward!<3<3

The amazing, imaginative and fun Valle jeweled eyebrow and orbit set is from the incredibly talented Zib Scaggs and is absolutely free for her Zibska group members!  Stop in to join her group AND to check out her truly one of a kind creations.  I scored this adorable, Looking (black) bob hair style from [e]; where you’ll find ALL the hair deeply discounted for a retirement sale.  The Tiger Lily ring  and Natalya Boas (I layered the hot pink and royal purple) are just a few of the latest releases from Maxi Gossamer.  My fabulous eyes are from the Eternal Eyes collection at Ikon.» View author and full post…

There are many in SL who vehemently insist that SL is SL and First Life is First Life and NEVER the twain shall meet. There are yet others who have managed to strike a balance between how much of the two worlds they allow to crossover. Then there are those, albeit rare, who find themselves completely immersing the two lives…my husband and I are two of those people.

The man wearing the fabulous new mesh tuxedo from LAPOINTE & BASTCHILD is my wonderful husband Douglas Caldwell.  Neither one of us was particularly in search of a relationship in SL and neither one of us ever gave thought to any SL relationship transmuting to First Life….it just happened.  Our first meeting in SL was completely random and it was clear from that first connection that this relationship was going to be different.

First, we didn’t go through that whole “madly in love” phase…we were just immediately comfortable with one another; like friends who have known each other for years.  Communicating with one another was just a flow of easy conversation…and before we knew it we were living together in First Life as well.  We are approaching our one year anniversary and I cannot begin to explain how much his loving presence has changed SL and FL.» View author and full post…

I have waited for Monday, December 3, 2012 for a very long time .. what I mean by this is.. Today is my last day of college classes!! I do the whole “cap & gown” thing in a few weeks BUT I am done with the attending class portion. Hence the song I used for this post. It’s like Christmas for me really, I have worked so hard for this I feel really accomplished and educated and everything that comes with completing a serious goal in life. I didn’t go to college right after high school.. I worked, hung out, lived whatever you know? 4 years ago I made a serious lifestyle change which lead to me perusing a college degree. There were so many times during the past 4 years where I wanted to quit. I would stand in the mirror naked and imagine being a stripper and no offense to strippers, but my parental units would of killed me if I would have taken that route. All jokes aside.. I have been making some pretty heavy life decisions as of late and all of them have worked out perfectly for my RL. I am so glad I decided to keep going with school and I am so very proud of myself today.» View author and full post…
