Dorrie's Doll Diaries
Tuesday, 30 December 2008
I can nearly see 2009 from here !

 

Current 'Mood' - Tummyache.

 

I guess tomorrow is the big ‘make something' day, ‘cause today sure wasn't ! I'm not feeling too well today, but I'm actually getting a bit excited that 2008 is nearly over. Like most everyone else, I had a great year, but a lousy December, so I'm ready to have it done with.

 

It's also a long-held superstition that it's somehow bad luck to take the Christmas tree down before New Year's Day. So I also get that to look forward to. It's not even in the way that much, but still, to me, the holidays were over at least a week before they really were. So I want all the paper, ribbons, and decorations gone already. Geez, I'm a Grinch once the day is past !

 

Got a good start on the dishes, but not much past that. I kinda took it easy this morning. Hopefully, I'll feel better tomorrow, and can catch up. May put off the laundry until Thursday - because, by then, I'll have two or three more loads to add to it !

 

Someone over at In The Pink took photos of the doll-size goodies that were in that $20. Barbie Advent calendar I saw at Target. A week after the thing's done, and now it's marked down - to $9.99. I'm glad I didn't get it. There's maybe one purse, the ice skates, and a pair of fur-topped boots I would have liked in it, which to me isn't worth $10., much less $20. On the plus side, I have some fake fur I can super-glue to a pair of boots my dolls already have... shoot, I have lots of fake fur, and lots of doll boots !

 

Not much else going on, so I'm gonna hit the ole hay early. Get a good start on tomorrow. Wish me luck sewing something !
