Busy Hands:

I finished the doll clothes; well, I had cut out a nightgown, but decided to just go with these:

I fixed the collar & sewed some buttons on the pink calico dress. The last outfit consists of the blouse & jumper. My eyes are drooping- I went on a first thing this morning Walmart run. That's the only time to go to beat the crowds.

Progressing:

Toil & Trouble:

On to another doll outfit before CSI starts with Lawrence Fishburn. Can't wait!

Mad Dash:

Another doll dress done:

As modeled by my pencil jar.

"Hey! Hey you in there! I need some scratchies and a fire in the stove would be oh so snuggly nice! Are you done yet???!!!Mommmmiiieee?"

I even managed to take Toil & Trouble out today at lunch. I was dreadfully over tired, but couldn't take a nap. Damn Tami Hoag book until 1:40 am last night!:

Haven't finished the "N" in "cauldron", but if you see any typos, now's the time to let me know!

PS-

Haven't mentioned the horsie lately because she's been really good for me- we've been having awesome (for me) workouts, aside from a couple of bitter cold days I just couldn't bear to get on.

Because one can never overextend oneself too far, I decided to sew some doll clothes for my niece as a Xmas present. I have 4 more pieces of clothing to start & finish: The pink one I have to redo the collar as the raw edge didn't catch in a couple of places. And I still have dishes to wash and my lunch to make.

Here's Toil & Trouble- sounds like my life at the moment:

 

Doesn't seem like a lot since last time, does it?

Here's the kid at the Fall River Christmas parade- she had to drive Santa & Mrs. Claus, then give rides in the parking lot after.

Here's Jody:

That guy behind was the Comcast camera man following her around in circles in the parking lot.

It was cold.

It's Never too soon

to go back to CakeWrecks. The most current post is an hysterical juxtaposition (way to go with the big wordz, Mare!) of  "This is What I'd Like My Wedding Cake to Look Like" and the actual creation from the bride-to-be's chosen bakery. Keep scrolling down for a most, ....uummm....ahemm... interesting (?) cookie cutter shape. Then keep going back to the Thanksgiving cake updates - more were added since my last referral to Jen's blog.

Have a great day- I'm getting my Toyota back today!!!! I can't wait! I didn't realize how much I missed that little car. Or maybe it's because I feel so jinxed lately with vehicles, I don't trust myself with the rental.
