I am gathering some wigs and clothes to sell from my dolls. I realized I need to get rid of some stuff so I can make room for sewing.

ON another note I saw macroons at Costco I didnt get them. But I did get some cupcakes at

My husband suprised me with taking a day off last week and recreating one of the first times we went out, just as friends though.

Close to 13=14 years ago when we were just friends He had asked me to go xmas shopping with him in S.F and we spent some time at Pier 39 shopping for his mom and friends.

cute sponges I got at Daiso currently I now have 7 sponges from there. Why? Because they are all so cute.

A chibi Isao, even though I love and own Tokyo Boys Im not quite sure how I feel about a small Isao. He is cute but I always think of Isao as being a little tougher,

Bah.. I had been trying to comment on some of your ljs but I had been having major trouble. I couldnt even load LJ pages so it must have been on their side.

So dont think I am ignoring your comments or I dont love you : )

update:

Volks Nana
Nana has arrived. She is very pretty she has a face up by Pepstar which is very pretty but I wish the eyebrows were more sad looking. I have wanted a sad face teary eyed doll for awhile.

So I am not sure if I will have that face up redone ( see below post for what she looks like) or if I will just leave her be , because she is so pretty.

Floating SD body and Dollfie dream body
I do still have another head to get for the sd body that is there so maybe I can make that one a sad face doll (?) I still have the volks DD body I have that is currently under going major surgery. Think " box cutter, hot water, butter knife, and pen"

I know sounds gruesome. But I am trying to be careful. All the parts I am attacking can be bought again at Volks and she really needs this. Its weird I cant sew for her at all until this problem is fixed. I still have not forgotten Carl either. I will send him something as soon as I get to the bottom of this problem. Volks , I saw they redid their website a bit. I am going to wait before I order stuff from them. I need to be settled.

Hana yori dango

I just bought the Korean version of "Boys over flowers aka Boys before flowers" its the live action. I had seen the whole anime and I wanted to see the live action and it was pretty good. Rick started watching it too and we both cried at several parts. ( Ah he is such a sweetie pants I love that he is mushy and a romantic and loves romantic movies as much as I do)

I know I said I was not getting any more BJDs.. that 10 was my limit ( well 9 resin 1 dollfie dream) but I had taken Volks Megu off my list as well as the F-14 from Volks,

Then I saw




A four sisters on the market...major happy. My husband then started asking me about the F-14.. questions like he may get it for me as a suprise.. that is too much to hope for..I already have to many dolls and I had taken a break from sewing but still have all my material and want to get back in to it..


She is to come next week...
