Let's talk about our doll addiction!

You betcha! I hope I find out soon whether the french gal is going to sell me the head of my dreams or not. I have found the perfect eyes and am searching for the right wig...I hope it is not in vain.

I need to seriously buckle down this weekend and get my photostory completed once and for all so you can preview it and give me some feedback!
What a great way to get this show rolling!

I can't believe you are still up btw! This place is cool! 8) NIghty night for now!

Yes, Justin and I were up until 1:30 AM setting it up. I wanted to stay up even longer, but I knew my body clock would wake me up at 6:00 no matter when I went to bed. I woke up at 6:15 and couldn't go back to sleep - I never can. So I wonder how productive I will be today

Thanks! I think the board is cool too! It still needs some work. This is like the Yahoo groups where the newer posts are on top and I am not sure I want to keep it that way. If Justin and I can't figure out how to change it I guess I will get used to it. I hope you can too. I guess in a way it is cool to not have to scroll all the way down the page to see the latest post, if you are current with reading. If not it might seem like reading backwards or something.

Yes - work hard on your stories and pix! I cannot wait to see them. I know it will all be amazing! One of these days I will get around to taking pix again. There has just been too much going on what with Justin and maybe Eric having HNPP and I have spent free time reading everything possible about it and my days off have been doctor appointments and running errands for mom and us.

Mom needs lots of dental work done. She hates to go to the dentist and hasn't gone in 3 years for a cleaning. She had to get 6 cavities filled yesterday, she needs a new crown and a bridge or partial. She has to decide which way to go on that one. She has no dental insurance so man that is going to put a dent in her savings account

I am really hoping you get that beautiful head! You are strong to stick to your guns about it though! Sometimes when I want something really bad for the dolls it is just so hard to not just DO IT!

Hope you have an awesome day! It looks like it is going to pour any minute Good thing I am making pasta and meatballs today instead of grilling! I got a bunch of ribs for the grill tomorrow when the sun is suppose to shine!

TTYL~

It looks like you fixed the posting order!

Well, no word from France, so I am guessing she has opted not to take my offer. Oh well. I will get a DES head down the road.

I hope to post some of my story tomorrow maybe.

Spaghetti and meatballs yum! Dental work is such highway robbery these days. It makes me sick how rich and greedy these bastards are getting.
I can't even get a cleaning now without having to shell out 50.00 out of pocket, and I have dental insurance. Thank god I have good teeth and have been fortunate to have gotten regular preventative dental care throughout my life. My husband's teeth are a cavity prone and he did'nt really start getting dental care until he was in his 20's and the damage had been done. Now all his huge fillings are requiring crowns...

Have a great day! TTYL!

So you like the new posts on top? The opposite of the way it is at WW? OK, if people like it I will keep it that way.

Sorry about the DES head But like I said, the right one WILL come along and you will make it beautiful!

I'm like your hubby. All large fillings turned into crowns and a bridge. LOTS of money

Yeah, Rob has to work and the boys always love when I make pasta. I even bought fresh parmesan cheese to grate! I usually take the easy way out and use the kraft stuff in the can What a fancy cook I am being today!

You have been slaving getting this board all beautified and fancy, and I have been going to town on my photostory!

I promise I will have some stuff to show you tomorrow! I got a lot done today, and I am pretty pleased with it so far. Had some techinical typo difficulties that slowed me down tonight, but I redid what I needed and wil be ready to go to the next scene tomorrow.

How did you spaghetti turn out?

I had a feeling that was what you were up to! I stayed up late hoping you would show up because I was so excited for you to see the board! When you weren't here by 1:15 AM I just knew you were busy creating an amazing photo story! Sorry some typo issue held things up Glad you worked it out though! I am so excited that it is almost ready for viewing!

Well, it was mostacolli and meatballs with garlic bread and a wonderful salad BUT neither of the boys ate with us. I knew Eric wouldn't be home as he works every Saturday, but I planned dinner for 6:15 when Justin would get home from work. He walks in and says, "Sorry mom, I'm not hungry at all because they had a job fair at work and it was all the free Rosati's (where Eric works) pizza we could eat! I said "But Justin! I made this special for you! It's your fave meal!" He says "Mom, I'm a 17 year old boy - if I have the chance to eat all the free Rosati's pizza I want, I'm gonna eat a ton of it!" So there you go. He did sit with Rob and I and talked to us. But he didn't eat any of it. Eric ate it when he got in from being out with friends after work - at 2:00 AM. Yes, I was still up when he got in He was quite surprised. Hubby thinks having this board will take over my life I've only been up so late the last two nights so I could get this all working just right.

Sunday - housework day Lord, could my life get any more exciting It's a really gorgeous day today too! What a shame I do not have a housekeeper!

(sorry I am in admin not firecracker log-in. But until I have things just the way everyone wants it I have to be logged in as admin to access the control panel)

Uh oh! Something weird just happenned when I tried to post my pictures! I will try again and see if it works! I will try it one at a time just to make sure!


Here goes the test:

EEEK!! Super cool pix!! Can't wait to see more! Great names too! How exciting!

The board is super slow. I am having to click twice to get things moving,

OMG That took forever to download...I know it is a big file, but gah! I have to post each scene one at a time I guess.

I have to laugh at what Rob said! He is probably right! I think you have found a new talent and hobby all in one!

Well, here goes the next one!

OMG! Amazing!! HL!! Just amazing! Talk about talent!!!!!!!

I think the the host of the board is having server issues or something. It was down for me a couple mins. I wouldn't have a clue what to do but wait for THEM to fix it! I wouldn't know who to contact or anything.

I thought maybe I made it go down from loading these huge files! I will try to keep going!



So, what do you really think?

I think they are awesome! Seriously! You have outdone yourself with these! I am so proud of you!

Maybe it was your pix downloading that slowed the board. I think I have heard that that can happen.

Eeek! I am so pleased you approve! Yes, I bet it was me downloading my photos that screwed things up...good to know! These will be the biggest files I will ever download though!

I will warn you when I try to load the last three..it won't be for a few days. I have quite a bit of photoshopping to do yet! The contest deadline is the 15th! I hope to submit my entry by the 14th!

I got an offer to buy a blank DES head. I had made an offer a while back to someone who was kind of waffleing back and forth whether she wanted to sell of not. We'll see if that one pans out or not! Still no word from France, I guess I will buy this other one if I don't hear back by tomorrow. Oh! mY body should be here this week! When the board shut down the first time, I had that in a post that was lost! I need to get the eyes and wigs now too...I guess I will have to wait until next month to get a new fall purse. I really need one bad.

I better get to the store now...

Can't wait for the rest! Good luck with the rest of the photoshopping!

So awesome that your body is almost home and the gorgeous head will soon be attached! I hope the sale works out this time. I know you and hubby will work your magic on the blank head! EEEK! Too much excitement heading your way! How can you even stand it?!
