Thanks! I recently got another pet, Toya.
I know her background is a little...weird, but I wanted to try something unique for her profile.
I'm also drafting a story for an angel lasirus that's based on chicken little.
[tot=PiplupMagby34]
let us know when you have your chicken little pet story... love reading your stories :)
Edit: You tossed your Minty Cropped Jacket into the rift and a moment of calm is followed by a flash of red lightning, before the rift shoots out ! :)
Nice one teacup!! You tossed your Dandybunny into the rift and a moment of calm is followed by a flash of red lightning, before the rift shoots out Green Striped Hat! oh well. not what I was looking for lol. I think I still need 2 slugs from there. I'll keep trying! TGIF everyone! I gotta work tomorrow (booooo) but then I have 2 days off :) (yay!!)
I didn't have that one so it was a nice toss :D Having Monday off can be really nice... fewer people doing errands during the week ;)
Edit: All About Velvets has been read to Poukie! Poukie says, "Rolls eyes Next..."
Poukie is becoming a tough book critic :D

Thanks for the ping! I hope everyone has a great day today :) If anyone is in the path of the tropical storm coming up the coast, I hope you stay safe! It's supposed to dump a ton of rain on us tomorrow. It's not gonna be fun at work... blah!
Hope things were OK for you with the storm. Some people got hit hard here in PA. We weren't too bad but did lose power for about 15 hours, and have some family and friends going on 24+ hours without power now.
Hope everyone else stayed safe too!
Thank you for purchasing from my shop!
I've wanted this minion for a long time... I have a story idea that will continue Poukie's adventures whereupon Poukie and Grappie ((old minion) are saved by Pray (new minon). I'm proud I was able to earn the recycle points... been a long time in progress to achieve goal :D
we didn't get as much rain, but the winds did knock power out for many of my friends. We didn't lose power. Work had 2 power surges and then lost phones for about 18 hours.
Good job on saving up your recycle points! I'm slowly getting close to 30k. Once I hit 35k for the top achievement I'm going on a shopping spree :D
Congrats on the minions. I don't recycle that often, meh
Well, it's been a swell day for me.
Kachini won spotlight today! Really glad because I made a special background for her.
And I adopted this girl: SpinelPuff Started writing that chicken little story for her....part of it is up now.
I also got an idea for a riftborn blob.....but I'm going to have to learn how to upload recolored images on here since the original colors give me a headache....
[tot=PiplupMagby34]
Congrats on another spotlight win!! I should make one for Kwixis someday. I like what you've got so far with SpinelPuff :)
I hope everyone is having a good weekend! Today I'm trying to catch up on stuff that I need to get done... including posting this (I have walked away twice from this post without hitting the button!!!!)! LMAO!!
I'm fine, just a bit tired, And slightly annoyed by wonky internet.
I just made a background for DreamSample.
I also tried my hand at recoloring the riftborn blob art.

I'm just popping in to say I'm taking a bit of quiet time. Various things are happening and I need to focus on myself. Hugs to all ❤
Edit: Well... Tempest has descended from above in order to play! You receive a storm item so she can get close enough to give you a MIGHTY BEAR HUG.
Wasn't that sweet of her to join in for a hug ^^
Hope everything works out for you
Haven't had this in a while ...
The Crypts
You find a room that seems special, and soon spot a chest. You open it to find...
You take your completed map back to Blake. He doesn't seem interested in what you have found. He takes out 500,000 sP that he uses to pay you for your map. He also gives you access to the Treasure Room where you can choose an item that has been found in the crypts recently.
I like your HA, Mina. And YAY for Blake mappy grab.
Thanks Yvette! Yours is cute too. :)

Member For 15 years
Exactly today, it seems :)
Congrats on 15 years! Shakes pompoms :)
I've hired a 13 year-old to water my garden (ex-friend giving me the silent treatment for over a month). This way, I don't have to depend on the kindness of someone... $5 each time but I'll only have him water 1/week. His parents will be there most of the time & he's ok with being careful for Covid measures.
I've taken my garlic, onion (white & red), and gourmet shallots harvest for the year. It smells in the apart :P
I'm hoping things will smooth over by the end of the month... time will tell.
Take care all ❤
Hi everyone! Hope all is well! Congrats on 15 years, Mina! I can't believe we've been around that long! Sometimes it feels longer lol. Glad to hear you got some help with your garden, teacup :) I'm finally on vacation. I so need it and can't wait to disappear into the woods and just relax!
I'm about to start school....
Do you know why your friend is mad exactly?
Also, I made this image a few days ago.....
Is it familiar to anyone? ;)
[tot=PiplupMagby34]
Would it be a
Fairy Tails: My Little Pony Friend? :)
In regards to the ex-friend,
SPOILER (click to toggle)
I kind of know as we had a basic few-words argument about her behaviour regarding taking Covid risks. However, she has severe issues discussing negative feelings, severe lack of emotional and mental maturity, and has mega issues making/keeping friends.
She refuses to talk to me (complete silent treatment = a form of psychological & emotional abuse on her part). I've tried a few times and I have even given her part of the garden harvest. I'm respecting her inability to communicate; however, I don't need that type of person in my life.
Various times when things can seem problematic, she says: Sorry, didn't mean it, we're no longer talking about it. Complete communication shut-down... it leaves feelings that fester without being validated or finding solutions to prevent such things from occurring in the future. If she was a child, I'd sit her down and explain why this is inappropriate (parents helped create the problem)... but she's almost 30 years old. She just lacks the emotional maturity that I value in relationships.
Additionally, she has severe abandonment issues causing a fear of losing those she cares about. If I didn't answer immediately or her parents don't, she thinks something bad has happened... including freaking out thinking a man that murdered his family that was wanted somehow found her parents and killed them... her parents had just been unable to answer the freaking phone. She even told me she would go see them in their bedroom to check that they were still breathing when she was younger. She knows I'm on a contact list of being checked on when there are heat advisories... she winds up checking on me in a bit of a stocker way when it was hot.
So... although she has a bubbly/goofy/perky personality (part of the time), the rest is beyond a handful to deal with. I've realized that I don't want that in my life... so I'm moving on.
I don't know if any of you are into this type of thing but... I winded up cutting myself on the same finger at the same place TWO times! One time I removed a chunk of skin that I had to put back on & another time with a completely different knife holding it a different way I cut it when it slipped on coarse bread. It's on my left index finger... started to research the meaning & found out that it means a person has difficulties putting limits/boundaries! Yep, I've been having various issues saying my desires/needs to others when I fear not being heard/understood/validated/respected/etc.
On a few occasions when I finally did manage to state my needs... the friendships ended. It's ok, those connections were there to help push me/teach the importance of finding the courage to say no even at the risk of losing someone. Another time I told mom I missed having written letters/cards from her instead of just emails and she was very receptive... she's written some and I'm waiting to get them in the mail :D
Covid has affected everyone differently... in my case, it's the isolation that's been tough. I've lost physical help and been unable to do activities that help reduce anxiety at various organizations. For a short amount of time, it's easier to endure... it's the marathon of isolation that makes it more challenging. I had been told services should pick up in Sept. and I recently found out that it won't be the case. Anxiety organizations have slowly started up... but with new directives of my doctor to protect my life... I can't go. I must limit contact to 2m and it's not possible in the organizations.
The tough part is that no everyone is of the same mindset. I've been accused by some staff that I'm too rigid and that they follow government protocols when they aren't... one even lied about his behaviour numerous times in front of my social worker. Some people are careful and respectful, others are absent-minded, and some are just downright problematic whereby it can cause altercations. I even winded up in a tongue-lashing where a security guard had to intervene because I had lost my temper and yelled at employees that were increasingly problematic by risky behaviour towards me. I explained my point of view and the security guard (and eventually the Manager) agreed that the employees were at fault and the Director would be informed of the problems that occurred. It doesn't remove the fact that I lost my temper and that most of the employees didn't care about being careful (one even told me to stay home... I had ordered online and it was supposed to reduce my contact with people to simply pick up in-store when it became a nightmare).
If the most vulnerable were young children, many would have a different attitude... or if it would be dangerous for everyone at the same level... but for most of the population, it isn't as dangerous. I'm in the younger but mega at-risk group. In a way, it's a blessing that I don't have a significant other in my life and that my family members are hours away. The members I'm closest to are vulnerable as well... so they must stay away. I'm in the highest affected city in all of Canada (Montreal) and in one of the highest rate boroughs. The strain is not only on those that are vulnerable... but also those that love them. My ex-friend was taking more and more risks... I desperately wanted a friend but I can't risk my health. I even offered alternatives (phone, email, etc.); however, she refuses to communicate or to compromise. That's not the type of person I want as a friend.
Ok, that's enough... I try to avoid going off like this since we're here to relax.
Yay for vacation! :D I hope you're enjoying some time outside ^^
I'm planning on going shopping (haven't been in months) so hopefully, I'll manage to find what I want as the list is getting long :P
It's similar to a pet color on Neopets, the starry color.
And ouch. Your ex-friend may need someone who's not afraid to buckle down and make her discuss any issues that are bothering her.
As for the tongue-lashing incident, that was justified! Is it possible to report someone outside a business setting for not following COVID guidelines?
