Roawenwood: Design & Craft

I have been reworking the store and doing a lot of maintence type stuff that has been making me a little crazy.  In general this has made it tough to put out new things but since I’m making things better than ever which will free up more of my time to do even bigger and better stuff.

You know one thing about large stores, it always feels like you’re trying to figure out what works for the layout.  I think people are getting kind of lost right now.  It’s not a bad build, though I think it will work better with some moving around.  Splinter’d though looks a whole lot cleaner, and better.  Easier to wander and find things.  I think it turned out really great and I didn’t even really have a plan going into it except it needed something.  I started with a building, modified it and voila…. you have what is there now.  I actually am quite pleased with it, and surprised that it turned out half way decent to be honest.

In celebration I am having a sale!!  See while I rebuilt it I ALSO put things into vendors.  I have hesitated doing this for YEARS partly because of the lag that vendors can cause.  These shouldn’t be too much of a problem and I get to have MORE fun with ya’ll because of what the vendor system lets me do.

One of the many benefits is gift card system, being able to send as a gift, and now a customer rewards program.  When you spend cash, you can earn to get some back.  I think that’s awesome.  A little extra bit of fun and it just tends to give the warm fuzzies when you get to come back, get a little extra something because you’ve earned it.

Now through or until Halloween everything in vendors over on the Splinter’d sim is discounted 25%.  I even have a couple new things out too.

So now that Splinter’d is getting settled in better I’ll be fluttering around the main sim and the landscaping sim getting them settled.  While I’m at it I’ll be migrating things into vendors.  This way the customer rewards and extras can go for those areas too.  I hope you are having a great week and I’ll write again soon.

A month and a half without updates.  Geez.  I’ve done lots of updates, things have come and gone.  Sadly I’ve just been so overwhelmed with different things that my focus just wasn’t there to get this updated.

I swear, honest… Girl Scout promise and all that I’ll do this up better again.

(( fun side note that is a bit scary… yes I really was in the Girl Scouts growing up for awhile.  LOL ))

Hiya!  Just a quick note because I’m going to be out of town on a lil bit of a vacation from the fifth until Friday the eighth.

If you need anything done, or have an issue… leave me messages, they get sent to my email and won’t get lost or leave a notecard.  I’ll get to everything when I get back.

Sadly this means….. no updates this week or anything probably.

*sniffs*

I’m so sorry.

But I’ll be back sooon!

Take care and have a great week.

It’s awful quiet on this blog lately isn’t it?  Almost afraid to raise my voice above a whisper.

I have been doing my releases on Wednesdays in world, but haven’t been updating this bugger as much as I probably should.

Whole new lines of fishing items, and there was a Father’s Day fun thing…. *sighs*  I’m slackin.  I should be punished.

*hangs her head*

I’ll make sure to update this when I do my next latest and greatest or just feel like rambling.  It’s been really busy in real life lately….

This past weekend I did an RFL walk at the high school near where I live.  I did a late night shift with my team, from midnight until 6am… so I’m still kind of feeling like I haven’t caught up on my sleep.  Of course I was too stubborn to rest beforehand, so for about 48 hrs I didn’t sleep *laughs!*

I’ll catch up with ya’ll soon, thanks for hangin in there.

I’ll probably write more later… I’m really tired at the moment, and I know I haven’t been keeping up with blogging lately.  Real life has been really tiring lately and I think to an extent I was in one of those spots where I opened it and then did the……. eh, I’ll do this later.  LOL  Am sure ya’ll can identify with that one.

But I HAD to take a minute to stop tonight and post about RFL and the Fantasy Faire.

Tonight I reached out and asked for help from my groupies and anyone else who was wandering by to reach into their pockets… share their lindens for a good cause.  I did one of those Jail and Bail events.  Basically I was locked up in a cage for an hour, vowing to match any donations up to 50K Lindens.  People came down, kept me company… wandered… and I hope had some fun.

It was a great event and I’m humbled truly.

For that hour we raised for RFL a whopping 75,000L.

Ya’ll are great and it is truly appreciated.
