| Thanks!
I found another site on ebay called "Deb's Adorables" and she has lots of Betsy McCall shoes in lots of colors. Even little tennis shoes in all sorts of colors. I put her in my fave sellers folder for the future. She has some mint green that I think would look great with the light green and flowery dress I am waiting for. I will keep them in mind.
I was just going nuts seeing all these sellers who would model their handmade clothes on their Goodreau girls in solid color dress shoes that I could never find on any site that sold Goodreau shoes. I am so glad I asked Nancie about them. I never would have even thought of a Betsy McCall doll.
Hope you have a great day!
Talk to you tonight! | |

| Nancie emailed me again. She said that she would love to make a Snow White outfit after the Alice dress. So that is going to be fun! I think Shyla will either be Belle, Sleeping Beauty, or Ariel. I got the cute little Re-ment that was the pancakes, cake, etc. The syrups and creams pouring over them attach and detach. Very cool! So I have all my Re-ments now. I am hoping that a set with silverware shows up again soon. I passed on bidding on one on ebay because I bought the dresses and Milo's black boots. I should get both of the new dresses this week! I'll wait for the new shoes to come before I change them. I am glad I will have shoes to put on Shyla that will match her dress. Either the red or the pink - her outfit has both colors. BTW, I put Milo's sunglasses on Shyla just to check them out and she looks so cute with them on. But no worries, as soon as Milo gets home she will gladly turn them over to him OK, now I have to go see what this truckers strike deal is all about. This had better not mess up my getting all my goodies!!!!!!! | |

| I am jealous that you have more shoe options out there than I do! Shoes are so expensive and I have had some that fit ok, and others that are not so great. There seems to be quite a bit of variation on the width of the shoe that can make a huge difference depending on who the manufacturer is. Yes, Babyman is Cole! He and I just went for a walk. Now I am waiting for hubby to come home from a run to Walmart. Trucker's strike? | |

| Well, I have a lot of color options, but they are just Mary Janes or tennis shoes But I won't complain. I am cool with those choices. I did get spoiled with all the cool heels and boots that the Pullips were able to wear thanks to Barbie!! But I am just happy to have various colors and shoes that will look nice with the dresses I get for them. Here are the shoes! I still haven't found out about the strike. I just saw a commercial for the news talking about it. I am just worried about DHL and UPS going on strike. I don't think USPS can strike. How is your baby man? ETA: It is the independent truck drivers planning an organized strike due to the high cost of gas hurting their business so much. Heck, the high price of gas is hurting us and we don't drive for a living! It's now over $30 to fill Justin's little Saturn. $50 to fill Eric's Blazer, $90 to fill my big van AETA: OK, our local news just did a story on it and said it is a protest and not a strike. I guess it may just be for one day? | |

| Babyman Cole is very much part of the family. I just love him to pieces! He is still a puppy at heart, but so intelligent that he is almost human! He has definite emotions and let's you know how he is feeling. He does require some firmness sometimes when his energy level goes over the top, but he responds well. He just gets better and better. He likes to come visit in the house now. He is still a little afraid of the pergo floors, but likes to come lay down on his bed and chew his toy while I sit with him. Those are nice shoes! You got your wish for solid colors too! Man, shoes and your own private seamstress to make you the outfits you want! What more could a doll fanatic ask for? Except for her new boy... I must go let my boyfriend in and visit with him for a while before I go to bed.. | |

Have a wonderful day!! | |

| EEKK! I got the pink, flowery dress from Nancie today! It is beautiful! The pink ruffles have like pink sparkles on it. The quality is wonderful. The stocking are so nice, the bunny is adorable, the silk flower arrangement is lovely, and the pink necklace is so pretty! What a wonderful outfit for the price! I will wait and put it on Rylee when her little pink shoes get here!
I just know that Nancie is going to make a gorgeous Alice dress for me! You can tell she puts a 100% into her work.
Off to leave her glowing feedback on ebay! | |

| EEKK! I cannot believe I came home to 3 (count them 3) people asking about Anisa!! Could it be I might actually sell my other J-Doll after all? I had given up on anyone buying her. One asked about shipping to the UK and two others just asked questions. One really wants her, but her hubby has her on a spending freeze since she bought 4 dolls in March. But she wanted to know how long I was keeping her for sale. I said until she is sold So maybe one of them will come through will a sale. It would be enough to pay for the Alice dress! | |

| Glad you like the necklaces...the pink one is a little big as far as the scale of the beads, but still nice. Man! Just when you think all hope is lost about selling one! Excellent news! More new clothes and stuff for the clan! | |

| Well, I have not heard back from the girl in the UK who asked about shipping. Perhaps she is sleeping.
The girl who really wants her has to wait until her hubby says it is OK. Then some other poster asked how tall she was. So I guess whatever will be will be.
I did just buy the cutest little white wicker basket that comes filled with little Coke bottles and cans that are detachable. It was only $5 shipped from overseas. Dang, everything I like comes from so far away. I missed a delivery from overseas today. Eric will pick it up for me between his morning classes and afternoon classes. Lately I have to sign for every little thing that comes from China. I wonder if it is Milo's red and black outfit. I think that should be the next thing to show up from Mimiwoo.
I didn't find any miniatures when I was out today. I would so like to find a store that sold re-ment type items without having to order. Oh well, at least ebay is always there when you just can't find what you want in stores.
OT - I bought that new Olay Mouse moisturizer today. I read lots of great reviews about it and wanted to try it. It seems really nice! | |

| Let me know about the Olay...does it come in a form for oily or combination skin? You are finding some cool rement, how fun! Yes, so much of what I wind up getting for my dolls is from China. I ordered a wig for Julian...yes, I actually bought something for one of my Pullips! It is a long fur wig to wear with Butler's outfit when he turns into Lestat!!! | |

| The Olay mousse is a body moisturizer. I wish they made one for the face. I love the texture of the mousse. It absorbs quickly.
Oh, I can't wait to see Julian in a new wig!
Good night! Talk to you tomorrow. | |

| Luca, look at this seller's site. They have really nice sofas, chairs and beautiful rugs for 16 inch dolls. I am so tempted to get something from them! http://stores.ebay.com/Miniature-Turkish-Rugs-and-More_Tyler-16-Furniture_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZ12222516QQftidZ2QQtZkm Sadly, nobody got back to me about buying Anisa. I really think $52 shipped to UK is fair. There is another nude J-Doll for sale at Dolly Market and she is asking $20 more for hers. I am just not going to lower her anymore. I will just keep her first. ETA: I just got the little artist palette! It is so nice and the perfect size! I really need to find the right art easel and canvas. AETA: Eric just got back from the PO and this is what was there - a wig I ordered for Milo. I had found this BIN for $10! It is really nice! | |

| I missed you too! Oy, what a day! And I have cleaning to do tonight. I had to run errands after work and then did *cough, cough* a little shopping...needed some black pants for work and wound up finding the most wonderful black Mary Jane pumps by Soft! Also, got a new top to wear out Saturday night when we go to a special Italian wine and food dinner with our guest, hubby's sister. She comes in tomorrow! Then of course had to eat, then take babyman for his evening walk! Now time to vacumn. Love your new wig for Milo! He is going to have a great selection! I bet you narrow it down to your top 1 or 2 that you never take off him! It is fun to try different colors and styles! Too bad about no takers yet on Anisa...don't give up yet! That furniture is nice...I am forcing myself to take my time and shop around. I know the right thing will appear if I wait for it! TTYL! | |

| Good morning! Glad you are OK! Shopping is always fun! Sounds like you got some great stuff! How fun to go Italian wine tasting! Well for you guys anyway. I cannot drink wine as one glass gives me a headache - so I would be in trouble Yes, it was disappointing after THREE people PM'd me about her to have nothing happen. Well, she will be the one getting changed a lot since I still have many Barbie things. Magna sent me emails with pix of upcoming Pullip/Taeyang. They are awesome! I will bring the pix later. Not that I will get one, but the Taeyang is really something! Yes, I will have 4 wigs for Milo. I just thought that one was so nice for $10. It is actually nicer than the one I got from Featherfall - as far as the quality goes. It is soft and kind of bouncy. More like a Monique Gold. The one from Featherfall is rather stiff. I know the one from CanCan will be nice because all of mine from there have been. I just love the furniture from that seller. I would love to get one of the round rugs to go under the wicker table. Gotta run, I have the baby coming soon! TTYL and have a great day! | |

| Dang, the pix Magma emailed me are very protected! I can't even copy the link let alone the pix. Well, when I find them somewhere else I will bring them here. I think you will love the Taeyang. They are the July releases and some how he got his hands on pix of them. So double dang! DHL just rang my bell with a package just the right size for Milo!! Of course I knew it couldn't be, but for a second I hoped! It was just some computer parts for Rob I am here with just baby Skylar and she and I could have used some excitement!! ETA: EEEKK! We did get some excitement! The red and black outfit for Milo came from Mimiwoo!! It is awesome! The pants are like real leather with cool chains. The shirt is so nice! BUT, the coolest part is that I thought the gold cross was painted or stitched on the tie. NO it is a real gold cross! Very cool and I am so pleased with the outfit! Now I am tempted to get the black and white one too! But I will be strong. ALSO, the SHOES CAME and they FIT!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! They are so cute!! I put the red ones on Shyla. I couldn't get them over her lace stockings, but once I took them off the shoes went right on! I will take pix soon! I will also put Rylee in her new outfit and shoes soon and get some shots of her. Probably tomorrow, maybe today if Skylar gives me a few moments peace!! I must tell you that Skylar LOVES shoes and when I opened the little box and the 4 pair of shoes came out she was running around saying "SHOES! SHOES!" It is one of few words she says. Too funny! | |

| Can't wait to see Milo in his new outift! And the girl's in their new shoes! So funny Skylar knows how to say "shoes!" I screwed up and did'nt place a bid in time for the gorgeous little mini silver clock I wanted and it went for 5.00! Dayummmm! I learned my lesson on that one, to place a bid then worry about it later! | |

Insane I tell you!!!!!!!!! Here are a couple of quick pix I took just before Skylar got picked up. I am going to run out to the store and to visit my Dad for a few mins.

She walks around carrying peoples shoes and tries on everybody's shoes when she is here) Rylee's new outfit! She looks so pretty!!!!!!!!!!! Shyla "borrowing" Milo's sunglasses! In her new red shoes!

| Thanks! I am so glad you like her outfit! I will take some good pix tomorrow since there is suppose to be lots of sunshine! Rob and I will be going out tomorrow to enjoy our first Saturday that will be sunny and 64 degrees!!! Yes, Shyla really does rock the sunglasses!! But she knows she has to give them to Milo when he gets home. She is cool with that. However, I may break down and get her a pair of her own. There is just something about Shyla that says "shades"! She is too cool you know Love her "tude"! Well, I will miss you, but I am glad you will have lots of fun over the weekend! Hopefully I will have lots of nice pix for you to see when you get back here. Take care and have a blast!! Hugs and kisses! | |
