More Gifts from Hilly Haalan

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I've got a few more wonderful group gifts to show you from Hilly Haalan, a part two of yesterday since we've only scratched the surface of their entire building full of treats. The group is free to join, and there are several years' worth of gifts that are regularly added to, so even if you've been here in the past it is a good idea to stop by again and see what you've missed. It is so thoughtful of the designer to make sure that we can all look great without spending a fortune, and they frequently take part in events and have some impressive new releases in their main building.


My first look this evening is the charming [hh] GROUP GIFT Amara Set. Its black knit top and plaid skirt are each included in a classic M size along with Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body sizes. I really like the tiny flash of skin between the top and skirt waistband, a small flirty detail that did not go unnoticed :) 


As the weather gets warmer, thoughts turn to swimwear and the wonderful places in SL that we can wear it...so why not include the [hh] GROUP GIFT Jazmine Bikini in your gift claiming? :) The top and bottom each fit eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Kupra (Bimbo, Low, Original), Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies. We also receive a HUD with 20 textures for each, a mix of solids and patterns that can be mixed and matched beautifully. I certainly had a good time doing so, as you can see on both sides above. 


Our [hh] GROUP GIFT Ruby Dress is another tempting treat that it's hard to believe is completely free. The strapless minidress is gathered down the middle and tied with a slender bow, in sizing for Altamura Sofia, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Signature Alice, Star, and Tonic Curvy mesh bodies. The HUD allows us to change the texture to any of the 20 great choices, solids and patterns among the mix. 


If you are as fascinated by advanced lighting and materials enabled outfits as I am, you're sure to enjoy the [hh] GROUP GIFT Patrizia Dress Set :) However if you don't use it, you can still appreciate this treat because there are versions with and without materials for each size - Erika, Freya, Isis, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies. There are also jewel bow heels to match, in Belleza, Erika, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn sizes. I wound up rezzing out a very subtle light in front of me, since I am outside in a skybox with no lamps or other lighting nearby, to really show off the materials which show a blue shine on the front and peachy sheen on the side. 


My final look this evening is the [hh] Sadie Jumpsuit group gift, an elegant one-piece outfit with low cut neckline and flared pant legs. There are sizes for Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Peach, Prima Busty, and Reborn mesh bodies, as well as a HUD with a whopping 50 textures! As you can tell, they include solids and some fun prints, so whatever your mood or personal tastes are, you can most likely find something that makes you feel "wow". 

It was a quiet day, but my evening got weird because I was being bugged by a human (housemate) and pestered by an actual bug, LOL, so not sure which was more irritating. I have never studied any form of medicine, yet every single time they have a minor health issue they ask me instead of seeking professional medical help. I'm not being mean, I genuinely don't know what I'm looking at if someone shows me a small bump on their arm or a red dot on their face, or tells me their toe itches. (all fake examples but the same idea) I never expected to take on a parental role to someone close to my own age, and then I feel truly guilty for not having answers. As for the bug, it wasn't a stinkbug this time but I didn't get a good enough look to see what it was...smaller then the stinky ones, dark color, weird flying pattern, landed in my hair once and on my lap twice but took off right away. I told it to go away so I could finish blogging, lol, and I think it listened ;) Nobody tell the bug I'm done please, or it might come back...well I do hope you're all enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Hilly Haalan

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are visiting Hilly Haalan, a store so generous their group gifts have their own building :) Their group is free to join, and there are gifts for other groups too, so be sure to have a nice thorough look around. I'm always so grateful for their thoughtfulness in offering so many incredible gifts, and will surely be back soon to share some more with all of you.


My first look of the evening is the [hh] GROUP GIFT Jenny Set, a one-piece outfit in three varieties. Each are provided in a classic M size as well as Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body sizing. The original is shown on the right above, the one called pattern is on the left, and not seen here but easy to envision is the black set. The flirty open blouse goes so well with the high waisted shorts and their cute cargo pockets in the front :)


Next I slipped (pun intended) into a gorgeous slip dress called [hh] GROUP GIFT Nicole Dress. This beauty clings to every curve just so, and will fit Erika, Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies. There is also a HUD included with 25 colors each for the dress in satin or shiny, and 8 metal options for the chains in the front of the spaghetti straps. I'm wearing a satin hue on the left, shiny on the right, and it looks great either way.


[hh] GROUP GIFT Elena Dress is a playful halter dress with both sides gathered and tied at each thigh. There are sizes for Alice, Altamura Sofia, eBody Curvy, Freya, Isis, Venus, Kupra (Bimbo, Low, Original), Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Star, and Tonic Curvy mesh bodies. Also included is a HUD with 20 texture choices, mostly solid colors but as you can see on the left above there are some lovely prints as well :) 


How would you like a brand new full outfit with shoes and handbag, all for free? If so, please be sure to claim the [hh] GROUP GIFT Perline Dress Outfit! Its sleek dress comes in sizes for Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Kupra (Bimbo, Low, Original), Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite bodies. The matching heels fit Belleza, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Slink High feet just right, and the handbags with hold pose come in left and right hand versions. It is weird that my first thought when seeing the rear view involved the word badonkadonk?! LOL, for real I was genuinely impressed by how shapely it makes the booty.


My final look tonight is the [hh] GIFT Rosalind Dress, which combines elegance with a daring flair. There are sizes for Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Kups, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies. Our HUD offers an impressive 40 colors each for the top, skirt, and straps. I must say, those straps are really working overtime considering how slender they are! They hold the skirt up and the top down, while crisscrossing around the midriff beautifully. The skirt has that great slit on the left side that shows off most of the leg for extra sex appeal.

Whew, it is a hockey night here and I've watched two playoff games that both went into overtime. Since they play until someone wins in the playoffs, the late game is still going and could run considerably late if the goalies stay so impressive. I did go out earlier briefly and it went okay, so that is slight progress. I hope you're all having a nice day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Sewer Scores Part Two

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we're back in the sewer maze to find more Scoop N Score prizes. These free goodies come from exploring the SL Syndicate sewers and finding poops, and you can even get your celebratory gold poop scoopers for free by clicking the 6th anniversary signs at the landing area :) The website is very helpful by letting us know how many prizes each store has hidden, so we can keep track of all 140+ droppings. I have this urge to use as many different terms for poop as I can possibly think of, LOL, but I will spare you and just get on with sharing the impressive contents ;) Some of the names are hilarious, like these designers have entirely too much fun coming up with puns to name their hunt objects and I am here for it!


For my first look I'm wearing two of the prizes from +CHANDRA+ which obviously work wonderfully together. Their ALABASANDRIA TOP BROWN is provided in Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, and Reborn sizes, and did you notice the fingers wrapped around my throat? That's right, the halter neckline is a subtle hand shape with four fingers towards the right and the thumb on the left so it's someone's left hand. I am a southpaw but I didn't do it ;) The +CHANDRA+ WILLOW PANTS BROWN has a sheen from advanced lighting (materials enabled) that gives the fabric a purple and blue shimmer that will depend on your ambient lighting to really see at its best. That means the lamps in your home, any body lights you wear, and the lighting in any store or club will show off a little extra color. These pants fit Legacy and Reborn mesh bodies.


I scooped up another of their prizes, lol, the sexy +CHANDRA+ RADNA BODYSUIT BROWN seen here. The low cut neckline is matched by the plunging back, all the way down to booty cleavage so it's a fine choice to show off back tattoos. There are Kupra, Legacy, Reborn, and Juicy mesh body sizes provided for this beauty. The seams and the ruching really add a lot of visual interest here too, that is if anyone can look away from your cleavage for a split second.


Petrichor has provided 4 poops for this hunt, one of which contains the beautiful :[P]:- Summer Krusade Jewelry I am wearing here. The long earrings are adjustable, and the trio of necklaces (short, medium, and long) are rigged to fit the Legacy body's neckline perfectly. All have swords in gold and teal, a striking color combo that will go nicely with all sorts of clothing. I also like the fact that the three necklaces are separate pieces, so you can pick the length that suits your outfit or combine them however you personally prefer. 


My final look this evening features all 4 hunt prizes from Normandy, since their styling and colors work together delightfully. The Ageko.Dress SNS could be considered our centerpiece, a strapless mini cut high enough on both sides to create a front and back panel. The seaming is remarkable, isn't it? The dress fits Legacy, Perky, Reborn, Juicy Boobs, Rolls, Teacups, and Waifu bodies and mods. Then I added our Normandy-DemonsBane.Gloves SNS, shiny black gloves with studs on the upper arm and open fingertips to allow our nails to show through. These come in sizes for Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn bodies. The Normandy-Gremar.Boots SNS combine the black latex of the gloves with green tops that match the dress, and come up so high they actually touch the hem! There are Legacy and Reborn versions of these badass boots. Did you notice the green soles and the touch of red underneath, like a famous high-end RL shoe brand? If you'd like a little something encircling your neck, I'm a fan of the Normandy-HeavyHearts.Collar-SNS to really complete this look :) There is a simple version I'm wearing as well as OC (Open Collar?) and Whim scripted ones included, and you can see a closer view in the inset of the broken heart at the clasp and a couple of the metallic studs that go all the way around. All four pieces are wonderfully detailed and ready to bring the sass to your wardrobe.

It was a fairly unremarkable day, which was appreciated after the chaos of Sunday. The weather is still warming up, and I see lots of showers and rain in the forecast for the week ahead. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that things go smoothly :) I hope you're all enjoying your day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Scoop N Score Prizes

 Hiya everyone! Tonight it's time to head down to the SL Syndicate sewers for their 6th annual Scoop N Score hunt. Can you believe it's been six years already? I've been laughing my way through this challenging but oh-so-worthwhile hunt every round (with Xan's help which adds to the giggles), and this was no exception. All hunts have a hunt object to seek out, and this one is of course, poop. Yep, little turds of various sizes, but these have cute faces and slender legs. The sewer system is an intricate maze, and my suggestions are to copy/paste the stores from the hunt website and keep track there of which ones you've found, so you'll know when you've gotten them all, and I also derender each one after I've claimed it. Taking notes on what decor you've seen might also be helpful, and I am a huge fan of teamwork for this one :) There were times I'd stand at an intersection and Xan would dart up each of the possible paths, using me as a placeholder. It took a few hours, which is not bad considering there are over 140 prizes to find.


My first look is the *Sweet Kajira*Gretta Dress pink/green Maitreya which is one of several (8) gifts you can find from SK. The name indicates the size and describes the dress quite well :) The style would work so well with all sorts of roleplay and -core fashion looks, with the romantic corset and lace. I am also a big fan of this color combo, so it was a delight to find this poop. Sentences that only make sense for SL, right? LOL!


Another store with multiple prizes/poos waiting for us is UNA., and I'm feeling extra flirty in their NoaDress SKY treat :) There are sizes for Freya, Isis, and Maitreya mesh bodies included, and the style is ready to turn heads for sure. The halter chain matches the waist chain, then the skirt is tied in place loosely to show off much of our bum. Even the neckline is low enough that you can see a few pixels of nipple, which will vary by shape and skin detailing.


The UNA.Cloe Blue is equally gorgeous and sexy, as is their custom :) This bare backed beauty is provided in sizing for Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Maitreya mesh bodies, and is held in place by gently draped belts in the back. I am amused at the fact I've now showed my booty twice in this post so far, although I did try to make it more of a side view and not as in your face.


Picture this scenario if you dare...you wear this stunning UNA.BelleDress Black prize to a fancy, formal event, as it greatly deserves. Someone compliments you on it, and you get to reply "thanks, I found it for free in a sewer" followed by their stunned silence. Then you get to add that you found it in a turd, which will either result in more silence or lots and lots of questions :) Our dress is provided in a Maitreya size, with a HUD that lets us select from 26 gem colors that add a tiny touch of color to our full black gown.


For my final look of the night, I happily slipped into the Luas Elira Purple prize. This sheer lacy diagonal hemmed dress and its belt are each included in Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, and Juicy mesh body sizes. Since they are separates, you can wear the strapless dress with or without the belt, and there's a HUD with 2 metals so you can decide if you want the belt to be silver or gold. I'm usually a silver fan, but gold and purple gives such a royal flavor that I can't resist that either. 

As with most weekends lately, it was a humdinger of a busy one here. My therapy today was intense, and then I had a serious talk with my parents about my grandmother. She's been getting weaker lately and lost her appetite, so the caretaker told my parents that she's seen this before and it is usually an indication of nearing the end of life. My uncle (her son) was there when my parents were, unplanned coincidence, and his younger son was there too...she didn't recognize her son or grandson. My mom said it's also the first week in ages that she didn't ask about me, so she may not remember me right now either. I am very sad, but also want to tell them all that I have enough memories of her in my heart that it's okay if she's lost hers. Apologies to anyone who just got teary, as I did, and I know it's a very rare gift to still have a grandparent at my age. She's close to 98 years old and I believe it's been a good, full life overall. My cousin, the one who was there, moved a couple of weeks ago to a location closer to me, so perhaps I can see him and his wife (and eventually their baby, due in September) more often now :) See, there are still positives in life and I refuse to give into the sorrow completely. I hope you're all having a peaceful day/evening after a relaxing weekend, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

Happy 12th Anniversary FaMESHed

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we're visiting the FaMESHed Event to help them celebrate their 12th anniversary, which is such an impressive and noteworthy accomplishment :) If you join their free group, you can head to the north where there is a sim crossing that leads to an area with lots of generous gifts. As of this morning you needed the group tag to enter that area which is why I didn't link it directly, so my link is the main one for the event itself. Once you've got your group tag on, you can walk up to the gifts and generally enjoy exploring the event. I saw plenty of tempting offers along the way, to help you jazz up your wardrobe and living space with something new.


For my first look, I chose the female gift from Ash. called Eden Dress - ALL. I did specify gender because there's a male gift also :) So this dress has some really fun options, as it comes in an original version and a 'less cloth' version for each size - Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Reborn, and Mounds bodies. The less cloth version is on the right above, shorter hem (one less ruffle) and flirty opening on the bodice where the white bib is on the original. We even receive a HUD with 4 colors for the collar, so that means even more versatility :) I feel like this dress would be handy for various types of roleplay in addition to everyday wear.


Next I brought two lovely gifts together to create this look. The top is our LEROY - Eva Cropped - Pink gift, a brief tank top with lavish ruffles on the shoulder straps. The bold color is wonderful! We receive Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh body sizes of this cutie. As for the shorts, they would be the *COCO*_Gift_LowRiseDenimShorts_TealGreen, a gift ready to make Daisy Dukes look like granny pants ;) The name does sum them up quite nicely, and I love the way the front is open and folded down just enough to still hide the essentials. These fit Lara X, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn bodies.


I kept on outfit #2 to add the wonderful treat from ::WetCat:: which is their "Smells like Spring" Bento [Gift]. The little blue bouquet is held in the right hand, and has an adorable animation that has us sniffing the pretty blossoms. I absolutely couldn't resist sharing!


How about another pairing of two different separates from among the gifts? The *Just BECAUSE* Eden Top - FaMESHed Gift is also perfect for spring with its bare arms and midriff, and of course the soft floral pattern. It is provided in sizes for Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies. I'm wearing it with the terrific [JUSTICE] DAWN PANTS - MINT gift, with separate pants, belt, and chain each in Freya, Isis, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes. Please note - the chains are no copy, so you cannot use the unpacking HUD to copy them into your inventory...please rez out and unpack the traditional way so you don't miss out :) There is a HUD included too, with 6 metals and 20 colors for the belt, so we can change the look as we wish.


My final look is a combo too, but both are gifts from the same store, Have Unequal. Their [HU] Haven Top_Mint is provided in sizes for eBody Reborn, Lara X, X Petite, Legacy, Maitreya, and Petite bodies, with a HUD offering 2 textures (leather or crocodile) and hide/show options for the waist and sleeve, plus 16 colors for the stripes and 6 for the metals. I have the sleeve hidden on the right, just to show you the difference :) Then we have the [HU] Haven Skirt_Mint which is a great mate for the top, in similar sizes - eBody Reborn, Lara X, Legacy, and Maitreya. It also includes a HUD, show/hide and leather/crocodile for the upper and lower portions of the skirt. I know I did crocodile on the right but I genuinely can't recall what I hid on the right, lol, I suppose the upper which is draped diagonally atop the full skirt on the left. Sometimes I get a little carried away with the fun of HUDs and distract myself ;)

Whew, I am definitely ready for the weekend! We had a birthday celebration for a family member at dinner tonight, so I had a very tasty meal with just a bite of an overly rich cake (chocolate with peanut butter icing) and I now feel like I need a nap, hehe. I'll be writing up a shopping list for the housemate shortly for the Saturday farmers market, then Sunday is therapy where I get to tell them all about my new primary care doctor :) My weekends tend to be busier than weekdays, but we have a new month in SL with loads of places to explore next week so I am eager for that. Meanwhile I hope you all have a wondrous weekend ahead, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

POSH and WIP Events

 Hiya everyone! Tonight's post features two different events, both of which I've enjoyed inviting you to before and will no doubt bring you to again in the future :) The first is the POSH Event, whose May round is open until the 17th and is a great place to find discounted offers and some exclusives, all for popular mesh bodies and many geared towards the curvier avatars in SL. There are a few gifts that don't even need a group tag, just visit and give them a click, easy peasy and very thoughtful of the designers. The other place we're heading is the WIP Event, another wonderful place to find new and established designers showing us their best and newest offerings. I've got a very special exclusive to show you from there, and I can't wait so let's get going!


My first look of the evening is a free Posh gift from Delicatt Couture called Kylie Dress. This long sleeved tunic dress comes in 5 fitmesh standard sizes along with Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink versions, plus a wonderful HUD with 10 split colors (like you see on the left above) and 6 solid hues. I really appreciate the variety, and this is such a fun style for a wide range of tastes. There are other gift boxes here too at low prices, the one on the left is the above freebie while the others are deeply discounted.


For those warmer locales, I highly suggest the Allure Couture Misha Bikini Pink gift which is also free at Posh. The top and bottom each fit Freya, Hourglass, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Petite mesh bodies. The straps on both are delicate silver chains, which go beautifully with the soft leafy pattern of the fabric.


Let's continue the sex appeal with some lingerie, shall we? LILIBEL is offering their LB - Sura Lingerie Bom - BLACK GIFT to all Posh visitors, entirely free :) It consists of a tattoo layer with both pieces in one, or separate clothing layers each for the bra and panties so you can wear them individually if you prefer. The texturing is nicely detailed, with little zipper on the front of the panties and a bow on the back that even has a shadow to it. 


Don't miss the #PrettyGirlRock display at Posh, where you can find their free gift called #PGR Grace Dress FATPACK. Such a lovely dress with an intriguing asymmetrical hem, and I love the knit fabric! We get to choose from 12 colors via HUD, and the dress is provided in sizes for Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn mesh bodies. Such a knockout gift, don't you think?


Follow me to WIP for my final look of the evening, which is the exclusive from The Bold Llama T-Shirt Co. PEACE PETS Tees. I cannot even begin to explain the joy this set brings me, and for just $150L it can make you smile just as much :) There are 3 versions via HUD, the two shown above and a dog with a similar vibe that I just adore. I'm a hippie at heart and so are these furry companions it seems, so this is one of those instant favorites. The unpacking HUD has plenty of sizes for us - standard, eBody Classic, Reborn, Waifu, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, Petite X, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP mesh bodies. Just pick the one you need, and hold onto the HUD for future reference if you wish, to keep your inventory streamlined.

My day off from blogging was a hectic one as I'd expected, and the first visit with the new doctor went pretty well. I had lots of anxiety leading up to it which meant no sleep, so it's a good thing the office is very close by. It is hard to explain what it feels like to wait for an appointment while having a panic attack, but it was worth it since the doctor seems very nice and helpful :) I'm going back in 2 weeks to rethink some meds, but for now I have refills and scripts for blood tests and all that jazz, hehe. I hope you're all having a beautiful day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!

FaShIoNable and Free

 Hiya everyone! Tonight I almost named the post Oops I Did It Again, lol, because I am bringing you on a tour of several stores for a multi-designer group and its gifts. This time the group is the FaShIoNable group, which is currently free to join and you can find the gifts by looking for their logo which is a chic black and white image with a touch of red, a woman in an elegant hat. There are many stores who have gifts for this group as well as many others, so it's always worth checking to see which gifts are at each location and if you're already in any of the other groups too. I am very grateful for these groups, as the designers can post notices telling us about their new releases and any special sales, so they are very handy.


My first stop was anny's Fashion where I claimed this terrific [AF] Maeve Sexy Black Jumpsuit. The bodice has slits both front and back, and the built in belt draws attention to our curves in such a flattering way. The gift includes Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizes. Anyone else think the pattern on the top resembles one of those Magic Eye 3D images you're supposed to stare at until a shape appears? :)


*Arcane Spellcaster* has lots of color variations of this gift available for different groups, and ours is the dazzling Dress Arte Gold. The shiny gold foil fabric makes me think of an Oscar award, but this is more of a reward just for visiting while wearing the group tag :) It fits Altamura, Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Lara X, Petite X, and TMP mesh bodies. 


Next I visited TRS Designs, where the Lauryn Dress Pink is our charming gift. It's one of several treats for various groups including their own. Lauryn is included in sizes for Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Khara, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Peach, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. The sleek styling is so appealing, and we can dress things up or down however we choose with jewelry and footwear.


Butterflies are fantastic for spring, so of course I was delighted to find the Rosinha Lemon dress at MONOMANIA. Those blue beauties on our yellow polka-dotted dress are 3D, so they look like they've just landed and are ready to flutter around us :) The built in white belt matches the trim, dots, and hem ruffle so we look very pulled together, and the bare shouldered style made me smile too. Our gift includes standard mesh sizes as well as eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body sizing. The gift is on a wall with tons of other treats for various groups, so just camera way up until you see this dress and the FaShIoNable sign.


One more stop this evening, that would be the ever-generous V8 Underground to claim their **GOLDA SHEUVELRO BLACK URBAN STYLE COMPLET OUTFIT** gift. What a stunner! The top, skirt, and shoes are each provided in Freya, Legacy, and Maitreya sizing. I really appreciate the pattern with hues of pink and purple, black trim and black straps to match the wide belt and strappy heels. Their offerings usually do include footwear too, which makes it so much easier to get dressed when you don't have time (or just aren't in the mood) for overthinking your accessories. Since I change outfits several times a day for blog purposes, that takes away some of the fun that compiling a look can usually bring so I'm more than happy to leave it to a pro.

Whew, the anxiety! I am trying not to get worked up about having to leave the house in the morning and meet a brand new doctor and basically beg her to treat me better than my soon-to-be-former family doc, but as you can probably tell it is a struggle and a half. I have some videos like ASMR type stuff for anxiety that I can watch, and I am reminding myself that I am doing this for my health and how helpful it'll be in the long run. It's almost impressive in a twisted way, how much of a hold anxiety and fear can have on someone, how much raw power it has. My job is to take back that power and use it for healing :) Easier said than done, but I'm trying. Okay so I am taking off tomorrow evening from blogging because I won't have time in the morning to take the pics/notes, and will be taking extra meds to get to the appointment so will probably be sleeping it off. I am eager to see if this doctor has any helpful advice, and at the very least she can prescribe the things I've run out of lately. I hope you're all having a pleasant day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
