I love the idea of a firework blob! Is there a way to suggest this to staff perhaps? They might love the idea too!

I am glad your dad seems to be on the mend, that should make things easier on you and your mom as well. According to Apple their watches contain metals that can potentially cause allergic reactions, but I suppose you would not know for sure until you try.

I've been dropping hints on some of the 'what colour pet would you like to see next' threads laughs Not too sure how easy it would be for them to draw, but even if it isn't a firework when it eventually gets released, I would get a firework overlay as

Somehow I did not consider the option of having a custom overlay, that would work really nicely too. Albeit a bit expensive maybe. ;) Sounds like it would be challenging to draw, but there are some talented people out there.

admittedly it would work better if I can draw the overlay myself (as it'd be cheaper!) laughs but I think fireworks might be beyond my skill level :P

I am sure you would do a much better job at it than I ever could. :P Not sure what artists charge for overlays now, but I bet it is significant. It is a lot of work after all.

ugh what a pain in the butt. Youve been dealing with this leak/s for way too long.

Eventually I think that machine will decide to move onto washing machine heaven lol

I got a new violin bow the other day and its so awesome. Its better than the other one -cute grin-

yeah thats what i thought. I don’t see the point in getting a watch im likely to be allergic too lol

it's the kind of thing that only some artists would want to even consider too! :P

Well the leak in the front was apparently because Dad hadn't closed the door properly (the additional seals I added in, mean the door has to be shut more firmly than normal.... of course dad tried shutting it quietly, rather than properly :K). But we're forecast heavy rain showers for the next 24 hours, so by this time tomorrow we should know for certain if the car stays dry or not!

hehe hopefully not until we've got the kitchen replaced - the kitchen was designed around the twintub washing machine Mum had at the time, so the space doesn't fit a full-size washing machine (and you can't get the smaller machines like our one any more) :K

Yay on a new bow :D How're the lessons going?

[edit] 20th Feb - so far the car is totally dry :D :D :D

I finished the diamond painting I was gifted for Christmas a while ago! Wanted to show you guys.

Paddy: That is also possible, but it can't hurt to shop around for artists if you can afford it. :D

Raven: Allergies sucks. :nods: Anything new with you? I am just happy my energy is starting to come back now that I quit the weight loss meds.

that looks awesome :D :D

I think I'll probably wait for the blacklight one to be released first just in case, but I'll be saving up on the off-chance that I need an overlay laughs ;)

And yay for your energy starting to return :D

Thanks, I bought a frame for it today, was hard to find one that fit perfectly but was close enough.

I am not sure what I am saving up for first now, achievement items or weapons. :P None of it is is cheap.

any particular achievement items you've got in mind? I guess if you get the achievement items and don't want to keep them, you can always sell them again then buy the weapons ;)

I have been buying books, plushies and beanbags, so not really something I could resell. :D Those type of achievements I have left are getting expensive, so I might just leave some of them alone. :P

well that would be a bit of a disadvantage if you wanted to sell those! :P Apart from getting my battle pet's intelligence up so she can use more scrolls, I've given up on collecting any more books for her to read, apart from any new non-CSC ones that get released ;)

The books we get from various events help a lot, without those it can get very, very expensive. ;) I have also been feeding Stjerne stuff when I come across something he has not eaten before but it is slow going.

how far have you got with feeding Stjerne? I found it quite useful to have a wishlist of all the things my gourmand pet hasn't eaten, just so it's more obvious if there's something I come across at any point! ....but that's a real task to sit and wishlist everything you need when there's pages of items to go through 😊

oh I'm so glad it's dry now :D lol sorry I thought I replied o.0

oh your diamond dot looks lovely :D
I totally thought I replied. Sorry. I so I bought a piano to help with the violin and can totally learn as well. :)

Stjerne has eaten 6231 different foods! Needless to say, there are a lot of foods left. I have wishlisted all books, plushies and beanbags, but not foods. o-o I might just do that one day I am not feeling utterly lazy. 👼 How far have you come with the feeding?

Thanks! :D I also finished a small cat painting recently. xD Piano to help with the violin? How come? lol

well the piano has the treble clef which the violin also uses. so if I play a note on the piano I can check that when I play the same note on the violin that it sounds the same. This will help make sure I am getting the right intonation so the song sounds the way it's supposed to. the violin has no frets only your best feeling that your finger is in the right place. It might sound like the song but you can be off by a fraction and I'm at the point now that the goal is to lock the sound down so it sounds the best it can be

sits and admires your HA And same here - it seems weird looking out at the car and not seeing the windscreen all misted over on the inside of an evening where the car was so damp! It wasn't cheap, but hopefully the car won't need any more remedial work for a while (not too sure on the gears thing, as Mum reckoned it wasn't too bad when she went out in the car last.... I've got a theory I want to test at some point on that :P)

that's great going! I'd put a lot of effort into getting Kosmo eating food in the last year, so he's now eaten 9224 different foods (1726 food items left to go, including what's sitting in my 'pantry' gallery that I haven't yet fed him!) I tried to feed 10 items each morning, then if I remembered, another ten later in the day (or using the pools to make him hungry again if I really wanted to get him to eat 20 items :P).... but I will admit I'm pretty lazy when it comes to feeding him, so it's when I remember / want to bother, rather than every day 😇

thanks. I had this one saved. It's my OC looking like Loki lol.

I'm glad its all sorted. -crosses fingers for no more repairs- oh? whats the theory
