Dorrie's Doll Diaries
Friday, 31 August 2007
Worried and haired...
Mood:  a-ok
Now Playing: "Kickin' it Old Skool" - don't rent this. It ranks. Possibly 'Bazooka Joe' comics used for a script
 

Another ‘not much' day. School called, Dearest Son's had a rough day. I have no idea why. We talked to faculty and staff - Beloved Hubby was home today - and are just as clueless now as we were this morning. (sigh) Maybe he'll talk more about it when he comes home.

 

Forgot to mention that I got the reroot hair for my soon-to-be brunette Malibu Barbie. After pricing hair at various doll sites, I decided to visit Sally Beauty Supply. I was about to give up, all their fake hair (can't use human hair on a knot-type reroot) looked so dark. I want a brunette, not a wine-colored redhead or a raven-haired doll. Either would look great, it's just not what I want. I guess the nice clerk read the frustration on my face, and she suggested one toyokalon package - she opened it for me and I fell in love with this dark red/dark brown mix. It was difficult to see the color through the packaging. Mine ! $3. is much cheaper than $6. plus $4. shipping. I may still use one site to buy the green/blue mix I really liked. It'll look great on that wrecked-hair Casey.

 

All the new fabric is washed and dried, waiting to be stored. I've started using the clothesline again, now that it's not raining all the time. And if you got our power bill, you'd be looking at solar clothes drying, too !

 

Hit two yard sales that were 98% country décor items, 2% old clothes. Nothing at all interesting at either one. I'm almost glad. Between the new dolls and all the new fabric, I'm not sure I could handle another big score.

 

Not that it ever keeps me from going out and looking !
