WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Was it the Linden who took over my avatar (and found nothing wrong)?

Was it the remote update to my ADSL box?

Was it the third complete uninstall / reinstall of SL?

Was it kind people crossing fingers and thumbs for me? 

I dunno, but it works and has done for 48 hours. After 3 weeks of **** frustration.

So...

Permit me a brief period of just sitting and grinning at Vent du Sud, and being able to tp and explore and chat and -

- I shall be back with newness.

(and I am sitting on my 1L bench beside the greenhouse, should you be tempted - couples / singles). Which in turn is beside the Mas (which is a 'massive' 50L).

Forgive me. I am just so pleased I want to plug my stuff and change clothes again and... most of all BUILD.

 

(and I am wearing Exile Monika hair and Zaara jewellery and HOC wedges a top by PBD from 2008 and I need to go shopping also).


Except I have to get on a train tomorrow and go away for a couple of days - lousy timing -but apparently earning a living is useful.

In fact, if somebody would pop over and do my ironing and finish up a chunk of legalese, I would start shopping building NOW.

No?

OK.

Receipt and other nice surprises

At last, here is the receipt from Doctor Without Borders

A huge thanks to everyone who bought things from Vent du Sud for 5 weeks in March and April (and looking at the date, I think somebody hitch-hiked to France carrying it - it arrived a couple of days ago). 

And below? LisaMun Aronowicz.  Great  blogger, fun person and she took at photo at the Vent du Sud Mas du Soleil (French Farmhouse)!

Check out her blog here, and the 50L, 48 prim farmhouse is here. 

Thank you Lisa and oh those shadows!

The cold grey light of dawn, and Harold (52 weeks of colour)

I am (gasp) a morning person. And I confess to enjoying setting my windlight to match...

Peace, sea... (and stunning, stunning Mia dress by Mimikri which rather usefully combines periwinkle and aubergine, eh?).

And of course my own Vent du Sud smoothie patio chair which has colour change seats and cushions matches rather nicely too). Couch and table in the same set, just 1L each (you know the score by now, yes?)

But back to dawn. Excellent thinking time. ME time. And, I think, my little corner of tranquillity in SL and in Vent du Sud.

Here, for example (direct TP to this build on the Vent du Sud square, feel free just to visit)

This is the Mas du Soleil, my French farmhouse (50L, lots of features).

On the beach, you'll find Harold the Heron.

Great company, Harold.

Then, eventually, it's time to face the day

Yes, a little thoughtful at the moment.

Happens.

But before I take my pose-challenged self away (pretend my hand is in a pocket, please?), this is the LAST WEEKEND for Vent du Sud's donation of all revenues to Doctors Without Borders. I will wrap up and make the donation some time this week. Watch this space, but for now, be generous?
