Dear All,
Today, my daughters and I had a 'Girls' Day Out'. We went to a Miniatures and Dollhouse show and of course, to the craft store. I originally thought it was a doll show, but I guess I didn't pay much attention to the add in my Doll and Costume Magazine. (DUH.) It was pretty small, but there were some lovely things to see. There are some TALENTED people out there!
Of course, we spent a bit of money since my younger daughter and I would like to try our hand at making dolls. We're going to try different kinds so we can see what we like. I like dollhouse dolls, but my daughter wants to make LIFE-SIZED BJD dolls from papermache. We've NO idea on how to do this just yet, but we're looking! I'm having fun going through all my doll books and magazines.
The day is getting closer and closer to when my son will leave for overseas. We don't know if it will be to Afghanistan or back to Iraq. Either way, I wish he didn't HAVE to go! I'm starting letters to him now so he'll have mail almost daily from home. I save the Sunday funnies from home and send him clippings. He seems to enjoy them. In the meantime, he thinks his new son is 'difficult'. Nah! He's just hungry. Little boys seem to come careening into this world just starving, lol.
Peace All,
the DragonLady
