108 - Steampunk hovercraft

Where's Dim Sum? #108 - Steampunk hovercraft


Dim Sum climbed into a half-bubble, thinking that the chairs looked nice and comfortable. Then she heard a whirr as it lifted up in the air.... "Not again!" she thought.


More color this time and a bit more scifi-y. I derendered a bigger steampunk vehicle and a few things.

107 - Why is she crying?

Where's Dim Sum? #107 - Sniffles


Dim Sum: Why did you make her cry?
Bunny: I didn't.
Dim Sum: Then why is she crying?
Bunny: She was that way when I got here.
Dim Sum: Maybe you dug up the carrots in her garden.
Bunny: Maybe you scratched her furniture.
Dim Sum: Maybe you stole the eggs from her basket.
Bunny: Maybe you ate her pet mouse.
Girl: Maybe because I'm half buried in the ground!


:D

106 - Smoky jars in a foggy morning

Where's Dim Sum? #106 - Smoky jars in a foggy morning


Dim Sum sits up, stretches, then licks the morning dew off her fur.


These are actually white jars but they went gray with this windlight, which is a good thing because it was hard to get some contrast. No shadows in this and I turned off the local lights, which were flickering anyway, so I couldn't get consistency among the jars.

105 - Three friends

WheresDimSum-105_002


Dim Sum looks out at the setting sun and quietly reflects on the events of the day.


This is the deck at the back of a pretty houseboat. I love houseboats. Living on a houseboat was one of my dreams. But I discarded that dream because I love books, and I figured that all the books I owned might cause the houseboat to sink. Then, they invented e-readers. And the dream is back on my wishlist.

104 - Mom's hammock

Where's Dim Sum? #104 -  Mom's hammock


Dim Sum enjoys the gentle swaying of the hammock. Now, she understands why humans like these things so much. Cats can nap pretty much anywhere, but humans are just so spoiled....


It's Mother's Day in the US and in several other countries this Sunday. So this post is dedicated to my mom Lucy, who is still in the hospital recovering from a triple bypass. Unfortunately, my printer didn't print it well, but she likes it anyway. Or she just says she does, like she did when my sister and I gave her macaroni necklaces to wear to work when we were in early grade school. I still don't understand why macaroni necklaces never came in style.

To all you mothers out there: Happy Mother's Day!

Mehgan, the TimeKeeper from The End of Time, was actually the one who gave me this landmark. (Thank you, Mehgan!) At first I wondered if it was a private sim because there were houses all over, so I looked up the owners. Karma Avedon's profile pick said that Avedon Park is a "public park open to all ages." Yay!
