Honestly, I swear, this is THE LAST move for me!

It was meant to be, that I find my old parcel still available from my whole month move away from it.  When my friend Misty gave up her sim, she referred me to a friend of hers that rents land and I got a great deal on an 1/8th of a parcel....1875 prim that was within my price range.  The only downfall, it's not the best looking sim......


The first time I was there I didn't do much as far as decorating, I put out a flat prim and textured it with grass, stuck out two trees and my log cabin and a privacy screen.  Then I moved away to share a sim with a friend and that didn't work out, so here I am again.  I really didn't have much time to browse around for something better, and when I did run a search nothing came up that was as good as this.  The sim owner is very nice too, so coming back just felt right.  Because of my recent inspirations in SL, I decided this was my home, and I was going to make the best of it.  *smiles*

 
This....is a greenhouse.  I have searched for a very long time for the perfect little house for just me, and I couldn't find anything that inspired me, until I saw this greenhouse.  Open and full of windows, I have a kitchen, small dining area, living area with a tv and a bedroom area, all one room.  I would actually consider the sitting area in the photo my living room.  LOL!  It's all I need for just me.  Like the peacock?  He has a mate running around somewhere as well.  There are also six hummingbirds, a canary and 1 swallow that fly around this area.....and of course there's lot's of great sounds! 

Here's another sorta room.......


My daughters Cheeky and Cherry's room.  No they are not children, they are adults with their own homes.  I am not a bad mom.  :-D

So anyway, I took my land and completely transformed it into my own little paradise, and I'm totally pleased with it.  So let me give you the tour........


The land is 8192m2 with 1875 prims and it's rectangular.  To the right is my house up on a hill.  There is a path sloping down to open up on the beach. 


This is the path from my house to the beach.  There is a cardinal and a blue jay that fly around.  On the left side middle is a family of deer and of course at the bottom is a weasel.


The beach.....a tiki bar, greedy table, lounge chairs, and all sorts of animals.....

                                    


I used a program called "Land Map" Which creates a sculpt in the shape of your land so that you can use the textures that you want.  The sim that I'm on has a horrible grass texture and the elevation of it is really off, so Land Map was perfect for me. 

When all was said and done, I did one more thing.....


My dance studio with a build area for my dance sets.  :-)

I did all of this, with only 1875 prim, and I have 561 left over.  I did pretty good.  This is it folks, I AM NOT moving again....unless I don't have a choice, like the sim is going away or something.  ;-D

Although unexpected, I really enjoyed decorating.  Now that it's all done..time to start working on the dance routine for my cheer video, I'll be writing about that later on.

Until then....
