with the matchstick men

Today I visited Cica Ghost's black and white world. There is so much to see and discover.

 I played with a butterfly...
 ...kids were playing ball and fly a kite...
...I saw couples in love...
   ...I was dancing in the rain with matchstick men...
This world is full of love, heart and color! (when you see behind the black and white)

"It is only with the heart that one can see rightly, what is essential is invisible to the eye."
(Antoine de Saint-Exupery)

Everything started when Sidney showed me his new jacket. Green! That is MY color! As soon as he turned around I just took his jacket and made it to my ;)


Well, as a guy you have to shave something on your head, right? I don't have a beard (thankfully) so I left some hair...

furniture in the garden

I was on a little vacation for the weekend and when I came home I found my furniture in the garden and boxes with my stuff in front of the door.


My first thought was: Sidney kicks me out of my own house?!
Carefully I opened the door... It took a load off my mind. Sid stood on the ladder and painted the wall.


Looks like he wanted to move in... I just hope the house is big enough for both of us.

the car

Sid bugged me all day with the question whether he may drive my car.
To be honest ... I do not like when others drive with my car. Then you always have to readjust the seat and mirror. And I'm not a good passenger, I am always carsick.


But since I knew he would not stop annoying me... so I said: yes


What a surprise! This time I was not carsick...
because we ended up making out on the back seat ;)

I'm in black and white mood today.

Saturday evening... all the work is done (ahm... ok, most of) and I decided to have a lazy evening.

housework

Housework... I don't like it, it's not fun.

breakfast

After a long night with way to less sleep we got up to have a tiny breakfast. There was nothing left in the kitchen just herbs, eggs and coffee.
Luckily I found some food in the fridge to make a sandwich.


Sid was not in a good mood, until he saw the new egg cup and its moving legs. I guess from now on we will have eggs for breakfast every day :)


Right after my coffee i have to go shopping to fill the fridge again.
I will just quickly write the

plushy and playful

Mini Sway (8) and lil Sid (9) have discovered the toys that I brought from the Arcade Gatcha event.


Mini Sway immediately fell in love with the little orange plushie fish.
Lil Sid on the other hand had most fun teasing her with a tiny flying UFO.


But then they found the fire truck and a ray gun and my quiet time was over. I just heard beep beep, wee-woo and other weird noises.

Better I go out there to check what nonsense the little ones do now.. 
but first the

Arcade Gatcha #1

The Arcade Gatcha Event starts in a few days and there is so much great stuff to show you, that don't fit in one post.

First of all I love the Gatcha machines, made especially for this event from Anya Ohmai. (Unfortunately they aren't for sale.)
But the other thing which I will show you available :)

 

Oh! A skunk is sitting on my shoulder. But no worries it's not stinky.
It's so cute and it moves its head.


I got a new.. ahm, a new old... camera. Love the old style of it, I have one of these in RL from my grandpa but it isn't working anymore. This one here is working, just touch it and you get the 'click click'.
And I have a new ring, it comes in many colors and vintage motifs. I'm sure I will show this more often :)

Hi my little Piggy... I go to a gatcha and you know what that means for you?!


You see, it wasn't that painful... I have my money and you have a very stylish patch ;)
Now I'm prepared to go to the Arcade Gatcha Event.


This is a lovely place, the weather was not so good but at least it wasn't raining.


First i had a look over the ocean, saw some seagulls and a little ship, then I had a snack nom nom and some relaxing time at the pier. On my way out I met a funny looking guy :D

the first time

Hello :)

Most of you know me as the designer of Sway's and the owner of SwayLand.
Now I try something new, I always thought it's fun to blog because there are so many lovely, cute and interesting things in SL... so I'll give it a try.

As you may know my first language is not english so I hope you excuse all my mistakes.
I thought you probably understand more when I write in broken english instead of making this whole blog in german ;)

Let's begin...


I grabbed my new camera and took some shots. It's really fun and it reminds me a lot of my RL when I walk around and take photographs.


Then I took a closer look to this cute or better I say 'yummy' ring. It's from the Arcade Gatcha event.
I'm a Lucky one, got my favorite color after 3 tries :))


Well, I go on with taking photos for the next post.
But before I go, here is the...
