Edwardo Who?


Where do I start?
Oh yes!
I DO NOT have a new lover, boyfriend, or partner named Edwardo.
I don't even know any Edwardo, Eduardo, Edward, Eddie, or Ed here in SL or RL :P
Oh my God, you have no idea what Ocean started with his last post. I've been constantly getting IMs
and a few emails from friends and followers asking me the same question...
Lori, who is Edwardo?

Edwardo is just a name that popped up in Ocean's strange dream that night. 
He doesn't even know any Edwardo either and he doesn't even recall hearing the name anywhere :O
So the final line is, Edwardo is a mystery.

Just wanted to clear that up to hopefully stop any doubts and all the rumors 
that have been circulating around SL :P

What A Trip !!

Posted By Oceanis

Hello everyone :)  For those of you that know me are probably wondering why I haven't posted in a 
while. I have been very sick and unable to spend much time on SL. So I am writing this from my hospital
bed and would like to share a very strange experience with you. But first I need you to imagine a scenario
to get an understanding of this experience I had with Lori last night.
Imagine this...

*You get in your car and put the key in the ignition.  To then leave your garage and start driving down 
the road.  You continue driving, taking turns here and there until you have left your city limits.. 
Then continue driving on a highway to your destination.  And after driving for about 2 hours 
you arrive at your destination.  You park your car and take the key out of the ignition.  
Then all of a sudden you look up and realize you have never left your garage. 
As if you were sent back in time and everything that happened in the last couple of hours 
was totally erased !!*




This is an example of what happened to me last night with Lori.   
We were having a conversation that lasted for hours.  Then I look up and realize that only a few minutes
have passed and everything that was said is gone. I had obviously fallen asleep and started dreaming 
as though I was awake and typing to Lori on SL from my laptop.

It was soooo real though.  And it kinda scared me. Haha it's a good thing it was a just dream though
because Lori was "telling" me that I had to leave so her new boyfriend "Edwardo" could move in. 
I'm thankful that was just a dream and all I gotta say is What A Trip!!
         
            (But im still keeping my eyes open for you Mr Edwardo)  :D

His SL Blog

1st Life
USA (SL+3), in my early 40s. i read books that fire my imagination (mostly hard/epic SF) and travel
extensively for business and leisure. I originally come from where it's always warm and tropical.

Why SL
I'm here because I enjoy scripting, building, and keeping in touch with friends. 

I'm not here to "escape" RL, so I generally try to get to know the personalities of the people
behind the avatars. I think of SL as an extension of RL.

Heart of Mine

Heart of mine, 
Be still
You can play with fire,
But you'll get the bill

Don't let him know
Don't let him know that you love him
Oh, don't be a fool, don't be blind
Heart of mine


Heart of mine, 
Go back home
You've got no reason to wander
No reason to roam
Don't let him see
Don't let him see that you need him

Oh, don't push yourself over the line
Heart of mine


[bridge]
Heart of Mine

Heart of mine,
Go back where you been
The only trouble with you
Is if you let him in
Don't let him hear
Don't let him hear where you're goin'
Oh, I'm tired of ties that bind
Heart of mine

[bridge]

Heart of mine,
So malicious and so full of guile
I give you an inch
And you take a mile
Don't let yourself fall
Don't let yourself stumble
Oh, do the time, don't do the crime
Heart of mine

Heart of mine...

Oh, oh, oh...

Heart of mine...

Wintersong




The lake is frozen over
The trees are white with snow
And all around
Reminders of you
Are everywhere I go

It's late and morning's in no hurry
But sleep won't set me free
I lie awake and try to recall
How your body felt beside me
When silence gets too hard to handle
And the night too long...


And this is how I see you
In the snow on Christmas morning
Love and happiness surround you
As you throw your arms up to the sky
I keep this moment by and by

Oh I miss you now, my love
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas,
Merry Christmas, my love

Sense of joy fills the air
And I daydream and I stare
Up at the tree and I see
Your star up there...


And this is how I see you
In the snow on Christmas morning
Love and happiness surround you
As you throw your arms up to the sky
I keep this moment by and by.

Baby Jesus



Sweet little baby Jesus,
tonight when the stars in the sky
serenely beam,
shining brighter,
and the world rejoices
by your glorious birth
My only wish is to see your face,
For there is no other ONE more beautiful than you.

I have no fine gifts to give you
But I do have a heart full of love,
I have my arms to hold you
and rock you until you fall asleep.
I have my voice to sing to you,
And if for some reason you would cry,
My hands will wipe away your tears
and I would put them in my heart.

At this very moment
I am preparing my heart
I want it clean to be worthy of you.
May your birth , light up the faith in me
In more intense proportion.
And may my ears be able to hear the angels sing
When they start singing sweet hymns for you.

My heart is glowing with the anticipation of tonight.
To look up at the sky
in search of the brightest star
And feel near and close to you
When you are finally with us.

I love you my dear baby Jesus,
For you are what Christmas is really all about :)

Hi Lori dear.  It is Christmas and it sure means something! For me it means that it is time to understand better the gifts we had during the year...during our lives...and one of those gifts I had was to get to know  you. I hope you can have good gifts during all the days of your life, and that the detours that you find in your way can always led to a better destination.. I wish you and to all of yours a Merry Christmas.

The Christmas Tree


This is my Second Life's Christmas tree for this year, but let me share with you a childhood memory
from my real life.

🎄🌲🎄

As I child, I grew up in a humble home where there was always a big lack of money.
I was raised for a big part of my life by my maternal grandma back in Mexico. 
When Christmas came every year, it was the happiest time for me. 
We never had the money for a real Christmas tree or decorations, still, my childhood Christmases
are some of my most beautiful memories.

Behind my grandma's small home, lay the forest, and every single year my Christmas tree 
consisted of any nice-looking branch my mother could find back in the woods 
and then planted in a white paint, plastic bucket, wrapped in colorful Christmas gift paper, 
My Christmas trees were mostly decorated with simple GIFT BOWS in every color possible.
I still remember some SILVER and GOLD gift bows that would shimmer on the tree 
making them appear like twinkling lights.

To this day, I haven't seen another Christmas tree as beautiful as my childhood Christmas trees. 
And I don't think I'll ever will!



Grandma (buelita Carmen) I love you and miss you so much.
May you be at this very moment helping decorate Heaven's Christmas Tree with the angels like you
used to help my mother decorate mine.

Santa Bunny

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through Second Life
None of Lori's friends were happy, with so much drama going around.
She was so unhappy, because Ocean had gone out for a walk
forgetting to take out the garbage
And turning the porch lights off.
Santa Bunny #3

She laid in her bed
crying her heart out all night long,
and screaming to Ocean, "OMG Ocean, I am kicking your butt!!!"

Neighbors and friends, no matter how far
They could hear her screaming at the top of her lungs.
Santa Bunny #2

All night she kept nagging, and throwing a fit
and all that poor Ocean could do, was listen in fear.
Her screams were like the thunder, disturbing the peace
And crying an ocean, flooding the Sim.
Santa Bunny #4

However the next morning,
Lori woke up in a cheer
Wishing Marry Christmas to all

and a Happy New Year !!!

Brush With The Blues


Mmm...

Hell yeah!!!
Just dim down all the lights baby cause I am on fire,
and bring your sexy self here and don't ask any questions. ;)
How can you possibly not get in the mood with this kind of music?
Let's forget for a while that tomorrow is the end of the world and just have some fun.
But is it really?
I mean, is it really the end or maybe just another false alarm?
Well, we'll just have to wait and see what happens right?
But just in case, know that I am thankful for the life I have. With its ups and downs it's still has been an amazing life. 

Oh,
and also thanks to my good friend 
for the great music he put together and that I enjoy listening to everyday.
(Mix of Blues & Rock)

HuGs Everyone

Renewed!

Renewed!

Eyes closed,
With my head up to the sky
I opened my arms, wanting to embrace the moment ... the world.
The rain falling on me
washes away all my tears and my sadness.
One by one, 
all those sad memories are being vanished.
Only crisp thoughts and good memories remain
and stamped in my heart forever.
My being has been washed clean.
I have been renewed!

Sleigh-Ride Adventure!

Into Town

Welcome
to
The North Pole Sleigh-Ride Adventure!
Mine, Mine, Mine!!!

Do you recognize this delicious candy apple?
For those of you that have been following my blog since last Christmas I am pretty sure you remember it very well.  My pretty butt cheeks sat on it just like they did again last night.  But to find it you have to again make your way down the North Pole's Mountain and through the icy cave where my old friends, the polar bears and penguins, are having the time of their lives dancing around.

Ok, so I must continue my exploring but now my hiney is all sticky with all that caramel and I am not sure if that is safe with all those polar bears around. Last I heard is that they are attracted by the smell of candy. :O
The Nutcracker

Oh how I love The Nutcracker, but then again, who doesn't? It is our family tradition to go see this beautiful play every  year during the holidays. We have very talented friends that participate every year which makes it even more special.

This is one of the several new things I noticed that were added to Nick's Town this year. I got to dance with the cherry blossoms and sugar plum fairies.
The Big Candy Cane

I LOVE CANDY CANES!

Do you know the true meaning of the candy cane?

It represents the birth, ministry and death of Jesus Christ.
The pure white candy symbolizes the Virgin Mary.
The hardness of the candy represents the foundation of the church and of God's promises to the world.
The "J" shape is to represent the precious name of Jesus, who is the reason for the season. But it also represents the "Good Shepherd", inverted "J", that never ceases to reach down to every lost soul on earth. 


I shouldn't

OMG,
temptation always kills me! :(
Why can't I just have a stronger will power?
I shall not eat Santa's cookies again this year.
But I've Been A Good Girl!

But Santa, I've been a good girl reallyyy ;)
I don't want to remain in the naughty list again this year.
Sooo Lazy

Why doesn't anyone believe me that I've been good, gosh!!!!

I suppose to help Susan here tend to Santa's reindeers, but I am sooo lazy.
I'll just take a little break and I'll see you later again today ;)

Lots of LoVefor you all,
Muah!!!
