Goodbye to Crimson!
March 31st was the final day of Puzzle Pirates' Crimson Ocean, before the server was retired. I was very sad to see the server finally close, although with the extremely low number of pirates online at any given time, I understand why it had to be done.
I spent much of the day on the Crimson Ocean on its last day. I went on one last pillage, with an extremely awesome and very nice group of pirates, whom I hope to catch up with on other oceans in the future! We even fought a Brigand King... but he haxed, and stole our blue paint :P. We won a bucket of kraken's blood, and slurped it - in honour of our beloved Crimson.
I feel extremely sorry for the one member of our crew who is too young to play on the other oceans yet :(. I am extremely grateful that I can play on all oceans. Although, I was very sad to lose my persimmon cat, Pepper (I get very attached to pets - even pixelated ones!), and I am very grateful for the pirates who helped me to gather enough PoE in the final hour of Crimson so that I could get one last portrait with her!
In the final hour of our beloved Crimson, we gathered together in the Sakejima inn. We played in tournaments, and took screenshots of ourselves (wearing the royal blue-coloured clothes that we had been "saving" for a special occasion).
We were even lucky enough to have a visit from some of the lovely Ocean Masters, who... well... changed us into rotting undead zombies!
I will miss Crimson. I am glad we got to give her a nice little send off :)

My Awesome Day!
Well last night, there was a group of really cute finches eating the aphids and spiders off of our rose bushes (outside the kitchen window!) I tried to get some pictures of them through the blinds.
And a video:
Also last night, mine and Ellenya's FibroDuck's came in the mail!!!
Today, we went shopping (and took our FibroDucks!). It was awesome! I had a really good day illness-wise, so I could enjoy it! I was even able to walk into two shops with just my walking stick (which is bright pink and has a yellow butterfly pattern on it! It folds up, and is easy to fold and unfold, so I can take it in the basket on the front of my mobility scooter. Incidentally, my blue glittery mobility scooter also has a pink glitter butterfly deco on the front ;D)
Anyway, the first place we went to was a gift shop that sold rice barrels similar to the furniture items in Puzzle Pirates! Yarr! I just had to grab a photo! (Those are our FibroDucks sitting on top of it!)
I didn't buy a rice barrel, but I did buy a lovely elephanty beady bell thing to hang in my room =D.
After walking around the large gift shop (YES, I WALKED!!!), we went to a shopping centre to continue our shopping adventure. I ended up buying the things pictures below, including non-permanent "plum" (purple) hair dye, a pretty fan (I sort of collect them! I can't resist the pretty shininess!) and a sparkly hair clip (can't resist those either!) I also started my Easter shopping - when you are chronically ill, it is good to plan ahead (also, I didn't want them to sell out of the speciality nougat-filled eggs that we all love!) I confess, I bought an extra nougat egg, and it has now all been gobbled! Hehe!
The other thing that I got today was a little elephant statue. I collect elephants, and this one was really cute! Its head opens up, and you can hide things inside it! It now resides on top of my drawers.
When we got home, I slept for hours! I hope I don't suffer too much tomorrow, but today was so worth it! =D

River!
Last week on the way home from a shopping, we stopped at the river to eat ice-cream (mine was peach melba flavoured! It was awesome!) It was a nice warm day, and the park wasn't busy at all. Ellenya and I went wading in the river! I got tired very quickly, but there was a nice spot to sit on the steps that come down from the park to the water, and we could dangle our feet in the water and lean on the hand rail. Ellenya and I thought that one day we could go back there and tether a swim ring to the handrail and set sail (without the fear of being swept away by the strong river current).
On the way back to the car, I rode a pelican...
Since getting sick with ME/CFS, I haven't been able to play in the river much. I just don't have the physical strength to feel safe (and stay safe) in the current, and I tire so very quickly! I'm so grateful for any time I have the energy to have fun in the water (even if they are very short, and mostly few and far between!) I'm really glad that Ellenya takes care of me!
Today, we went to the river again! We went to a different spot, though. We had a picnic lunch beside the water, in the shade of a giant old gum tree. It was nice and quiet (except for the pleasant sounds of kookaburras and other birds). I grew some lovely sweet teeth!
Later, Ellenya and I went swimming in the river! I took a big swim ring to protect against getting too tired and drowning, and we packed an air bed pump to use to pump it up! Ellenya stopped me and my swim ring from floating away with the current, using the handy little handles on the swim ring. After a while, I got too tired and had to get out of the water. Ellenya had to help me walk back to our picnic blanket!
Then Ellenya found a pretzel bra!
I lied in the shade of the giant old gum tree and snoozed. It was lovely! When it was time to go home, we had the dilemma of having to fit the now blown-up swim ring into the car... It had a safety valve on it to stop it from leaking air and deflating, which was really not helpful when we wanted it to deflate! We managed to shrink it enough that we could stuff it into the back seat between us! I snoozed on it as we drove, hehe!
When we got home, I had a shower to rinse off the river mud (I'm very glad that I have a shower chair!) Then I went to bed until dinner time. I am still recovering from the awesome day, but I am so glad that I got to go out and have fun!
