Long time no Blog...

It might seem like I'm 'done' with dollies, but I'm REALLYnot.  I'm enjoying dollies, I'm enjoying my dollie friends, and my dollie friend's dollies, I'm even enjoying my enemy's dollies. 

I'm not sewing or doing crochet at this moment.  I've lost my mojo and sometimes it's too uncomfortable to do tiny sewing movements anyway... but I'm planning to make some doll related 'stuffs' in the near future. 

BUT... I'm waiting for some new girls: 

- Mouse by Lidia Snul -  bjtales.

- Fidelia II and Fidelina by Charles Stephan, and

- Hope, one of the Sprockets by Connie Lowe - Marbled Halls (I hope to get some of the other Sprockets as well.  I missed on Meek and Glum)

AND...  as always I also have a wishlist for some 'oldies'.  One of them is a NariPon Pansy.  A year ago I ordered one from NotDoll and they took a run with my money and dissapeared from the planet.  Such a shame, back in the days NotDoll was a well known company with fine quality dolls an excellent customers service... sadly they turned into scammers overnight. 

Wishing all my dollie friends a wonderful summer and lots of joy!

Mouse, the White by Lidia Snul

On tuesday morning my husband brought me to the ER.  I had no sleep in a week because of the pain in my neck, shoulder and right arm.  I've obviously overdone with sewing and crocheting, I took several pain killers but the pain kept increasing and on tuesday morning I just couldn't take it anymore and broke down in tears.  As my doctor was not available my husband insisted we went to the ER.  After an MRI, an echo and an X-ray, they gave me some strong pain relievers and a muscle relaxant. I have to keep it all warm, have a rest and take the medicin.   I'm all wuzy from the pain killers.  I'm not permitted to drive, so I'm basicly glued to my couch and watch TV and surf on the internet.

To make things worse, my cooker gave up... we ordered a new one but we have to wait for about 10 days for it.  I'm used to cook diner every day, I often bake cakes or pan cakes, pies or cupcakes, lovely creme brulees... and so on... so you can imagine how I feel. 

But... on a positive note,  I treated myself with this:

She's Lidia Snul's creation; Mouse, the White (in resin) and it's obviously not my picture

I'm a little bit sad because she's available only through jpopdolls.net, in the US and clearly I will have to dig up an amount of money to pay for custom fees and import taxes.  I wish Lidia would have thought of her European fans. 

But I'm over the moon anyway :)
