I think someone is saying she wants to come out and play :) As for it looking too big for a doll that's always adorable.

Found out the sewing machine I got yesterday is a Singer 306w, apparently in the condition I have it in is worth up to about $500 on ebay. But.. I'm sure as heck not selling I needed one badly and this one is amazing!

I think she is! XD I've always felt a little bad about leaving my girl in the basement while the BJDs get all the love, made room for the chair in the closet last night, so when my mom gets home and I ask her to bring up the bug spray (I don't know where anything is in the basement >_<) I'll ask her for the doll chest as well. Then I'll bring out the magic eraser and look for the doll brush because she was played with a <i>lot</i> and needs some TLC. She (and my sister's Kirstin, and their clothes and accessories) are pre-Mattel and discontinued, and they don't make'em like that anymore anyway, so I want to make sure they're taken care of.

I'll have to take some pictures, with her and with my BJDs.

I was sent the wrong doll body from a seller. She told me to keep it and she will send me out the right body. :D

I found my doll brush! It's been missing for ages, hidden away as it was in the box where I keep some spare wigs. What on earth was it doing <i>there</i> who would ever look there? *smacks self* Dove's mohair wig looks soooo much better now that it's been brushed properly (I think I may actually keep it on her now), and I'll be able to give Felicity's hair the TLC it needs.

Also, I just got some belated birthday money. And promptly spent it. On a Hujoo Jake. Because Bernadette needs a friend her own scale and as soon as I saw him in the Junkyspot newsletter I loved his face. I'd been thinking about getting Wings to be her boyfriend, but I like Jake much better. ^_^

I figured out who sent me the doll! Now I just have to give her a phone call and thank her.

Now that I know it's not a mistake I can make a little unicorn girl to go with my deer girl.

Redid my finances and will be paying off my YuHao Luo Ji's (Amelia) full balance and should hopefully have her home by next weekend, instead of a month from now! <3

The resin head I traded for a couple of months ago from an out-of-country customizer seemed to have disappeared. I finally heard from the customizer, and his computer had gone down with resultant loss of addresses, etc. I wish he'd let me know a *lot* earlier-but everything's good, and the head will be on its way next week. :)
