Jenny and Diomita Maurer: Work done – Home is decorated (I’ll catch a cold like this!!)
Our environment in SL is changing. More and more sims are decorated for the season now and there’re lovely winter landscapes as well as new decorations. We also decorated our home in SL again. And every year it is a bit different to the year before. We got two snowmans, one at the landing point and one at the main place by the house. Click them and try out the poses, they are fun. We also got a new christmas tree that offers a nice light show. I made a short video again firstly to save some impressions for our diary but secondly to continue improving and learning. Enjoy watching.
We wish everybody a wonderful season.
Love from Diomita and Jenny
Today our Kitty (aka. Santana Thibedeau) returned home. I haven’t seen her yet (is she hiding?) but I got hints and messages. She’s out there somwhere, be warned. Kitty is such a brat, she even dared to announce* her return home, so we can’t complain later.
Today marks our Kitty’s 6th collaring day. What a long time, what a journey together. Thank you for your dedication to us, Kitty.
It all began when we met Santana at Stonehaven. He was convinced that the could tame and enslave us even if we put him in cuffs and chains and throw him in a cell. So far he was always able to talk himself out of every misery, This time not. The only way out of the luxury suit he lived in in our Hotel California was to submit. And he did – 6 years ago.
Santana developed being a great friend and always happy to cause troubles that often end having really fun. One day my former sister Yar turned him into a Kitty. That day Kitty Maurer was born. And Santana enjoyed it that much that he didn’t want to change back. As Kitty he could cause even more trouble, leaving pee on cushions, scratching the edges of all corners or simply by making silly comments. For a longer time, Kitty was our explorer. She went to sims far away to discover them for us. Of course she got trapped, cuffed, gagged and chained – but her ability to talk herself out helped her getting home always. Quite similar began Kitty’s change into a pony. She once was transformed into a pony and enjoyed it. Again Kitty dived deep into her new life. She trained, exercised and made all pony tests, she pulled carts, freed other ponies – simply had fun.

Unfortunately OL (her Other Life) takes Kitty from us for longer periods again and again. But she learned to keep in touch and to send a hello or small sign of life regularly – thus we are always up to date, where she is. But this darn OL seems to prevent her from getting online today and she missed her collaring day present. What might it be? Well, as Kitty will read these lines we will reveal it here. It is a simple present. We will release Kitty from her pony life. This way she can turn back into her Kitty shape and skin (she got a real nice avatar in the meanwhile making her all female *winks*) and enjoy causing troubles as the curious cat she is, once her OL allows her to return for longer strays. And we’ll get new reports from far away sims all over SL.
Seems as if I found a new addiction – taking videos in SL. This is already my 2nd video and I selected a Friday dance night to take this one. It is great to save also some movies for our diary
I’ve seen some videos taken in SL lately and today with a bit extra time, I tried to take my first video in Second Life. Well, I’m not very excited with the result so far but I see it as a challenge to improve. At least now I know about the basics! And to improve I will need a 3D mouse to take videos smoother. Anway, here it is: My first SL Video
And when it is Halloween the Eurobrats will celebrate it. And in particular when Halloween is on a Friday – then it has to be a Halloween Party. So Jenny prepared the beach disco and changed it into a Halloween setting. Thank you for your work (but I know you loved doing that). Anyway and despite the many places that might party tomorrow night, we do hope that you stop by inworld and dance with us (as every Friday the party starts at 9 PM GMT / 1 PM SL time).

Of course you can come in disguise (you mustn’t). I myself selected my costume already and our niece Angelique selected hers too. I took this picture of Angelique and me last night.

Something else: Dont’s forget to visit Maurer’s Gallery (TP pad to the gallery is right at the landing point). Rona’s Fall exhibit still is up with no admission fee until November 11th. Rona is just in a creative phase and for Halloween she made this picture:
Following this blog you know that Rona is a passionate artist. She takes pictures in SL and processes them adding RL pictures or objects or using other effects to turn them into art. She also made some pieces for Jenny and me and you can find already some of her art in this blog, as well as on my deviantArt account and of course in her deviantArt account (url’s in the links section). Of course we also talk about the pictures quite often.
I discovered art in SL quite a while ago and wrote some posts about it. And Rona was a friend, then my “art connection” and is our collared brat nowadays. I also visited galleries in SL, some of them in the catagory erotic art but also some of them dealing with landscapes or with virtual temporary art or with surreal themes. Hence it is no surprise that I talked with Rona about galleries and the possibility to present her art to the broader public not only on deviantArt but also inworld. We both were excited about the idea and began immediately making plans. And now it is time for the first exhibit of Rona’s art in “Maurer Gallery”. We do hope for many visitors, good conversations and exchange about the picture, and that you enjoy your visit. There will be a teleport pad leading directly to Maurer Gallery at the landing point of our homesim during the exhibit (http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Mount%20Everest/106/87/31).
You’re very welcome!
It’s been well over three years that we moved to our own homesim “Mount Everest”. And the islands that we share with Sarah and with Tyra&Virgo changed during these years. We’re changing and improving slowly but steadily. The latest main changes were adding trees and flowers and our new main house. Last weekend we added something else: a waterfall close to the Shangri-La. The waterfall includes some very nice poses for a single avatar taking a shower or a bath and some poses for cuddling or taking a bath together. We added some grass, rocks and plants around it and connected the falls with the sea. Fae added a huge mushroom to sit on, which adds a tiny bit of the land of fairies to our islands. Now we needed a name for it. Of course that’s the title of this post. You should have seen Angelique directing Jenny when she placed the new falls. She stomped with her feet here and there to indicate where she wanted it moved. That was funny. Angelique truely seems to love the new addition to our home. Thus Jenny proposed “Angel Falls” and she also looked it up in Wikipedia:
“Angel Falls (Spanish: Salto Ángel; Pemon language: Kerepakupai Vená, meaning “waterfall of the deepest place”, or Parakupá Vená, meaning “the fall from the highest point”) is a waterfall in Venezuela. It is the world’s highest uninterrupted waterfall, with a height of 979 m (3,212 ft) and a plunge of 807 m (2,648 ft). The waterfall drops over the edge of the Auyantepui mountain in the Canaima National Park (Spanish: Parque Nacional Canaima), a UNESCO World Heritage site in the Gran Sabana region of Bolívar State.”

So our island is not only named after the highest mountain on earth but also has the highest waterfall. That fits! Oh, there’s already someone taking a shower. Who might it be? Let’s take a closer look!

Last weekend the home and garden expo in Second Life opened it’s doors and Jenny and I had a quick walk around at a small part of the fair. We were attracted by some mesh stairs, low prim and looking quite real. So we went to the store of the maker to get them and got not only the stairs but also some paths textures. And back home we began improving the paths through our island. They look a lot better than those before, at least in our opinion. With the paths and stairs and Angel Falls it was about time to revise the map of Mount Everst. Here it is:

Now we’re ready for the upcoming weekend. Let’s start it with a nice party Friday night at 9 PM (GMT).
We hope to see you there inworld!
Love from Diomita and Jenny
Our Friday night parties are a fixed date in our weekly calendar. We had them since 2009 when Sam (samatha.congrejo), who left SL long ago, provided a sim for Yasmin and the brat pack – Rivers Rock. There she erected a store and a club – the BRATZ club. And Virgo played the tunes every Friday night. Suddently Rivers Rock was gone when Sam left SL but we kept the Friday night parties and always found a place for it. The party is a real tradition that we don’t want to miss. Sometimes Tyra sets up a theme, sometimes Virgo just picks what comes to her mind. And Virgo is for sure the best dj in whole SL (I’m biased but i can be biased). The party is always nice and the music is great but it is even better when we have many guests. Then we have some nice banters and chat while dancing and not just everyone being in IM. So this blog entry is also sort of an advertisement for the party. Last night we had quite a crowd and that was pure fun until early morning.
So come and join the fun. The party is every Friday at 9 PM (GMT) / 1 PM (SL time).
The Friday night party – every Friday at 9 PM GMT
Today my niece Angelique and I had a short conversation and she really said “I’m the most innocent family member”. For me that is the joke of the day that I wanted to share here. Ok, I admit in the picture below she really looks quite innocent, just her skirt is a bit short for her innocence.

One last thing: Jenny and I were looking for some trouble and fun outside of our family. We do that rarely and it is not that easy to find a someone for it. I don’t know yet how it will develop. But as the blog is still also our diary, it should be mentioned here. I won’t reveal any details but this picture is of last Thursday and i cut out our kidnapper. We’re still having fun inworld.
Sarah, Angelique, Argi, Mii and Dio chitchatting Sept 4th, 2014
The first week of September was comparably quiet, no bondage night at least. But we had fun and were busy nonetheless. We prepared a particular event but haven’t fixed a date yet nor will I reveal anything here right now, but there will be an entry announcing it here soon. Slave flo was on vacation and rona cared about the dusting during her absence.

Apropos slave – we host another slave. Her name is W-190 formerly known as joselyn Lavender. She came wandering around and exploring to us the week before. It turns out that she was recently enslaved as “woman voluntarily serving (wvs)” by MzTania. I know Tania’s sim and her wvs as Dana is a parttime wvs (or at least she was) and thus i got contact to Tania. Sometimes I use “The Retreat” at Tania’s sim to …. retreat (surprise, surprise). I contacted Tania and we agreed that slave jo, as we call her, will serve us now until further notice. Slave jo is a patient, submissive being. We will guide and accompany her path slowly and see where it leads to. The slaves flo and jo began to know eachother already as documented in the picture below.

Did anything else happen? Oh yes, I updated the “Family overview” on the Family&Friends page of this blog. And Jenny and I had some relaxing and recovering moments – but not everything needs to be documented here in detail *grins
