Worked like a maniac in the house again today.

And it still looks like a shit hole!

ah well.

Workshop starts tomorrow.  My freedom is at an end.

Weep with me, my brethren and sisters!!!

And to make it all perfect, I broke a tooth tonight.  Gah.  Busted the little f**ker right off.  Thank God it doesn't hurt--but it is sharp as shit and is cutting the crap out of my tongue every time I accidentally brush against it.

Not much else is new.

I am ashamed to show my face at IBDOF due to not having written anything of note for Kvetch.  (Whom I dearly love like another nephew--and who is quiet probably my most loyal fan...sigh)

I thought I could get something done this week, but with the havoc wrecked by removing and replacing the kitchen flooring--and EVERYTHING ELSE...well, I just didn't have any creativity left in me when I sat down to write.

SORRY, Kvetch, and other fans.

:(

I'll try to do better.

THIS is the doll whose clone sister sold for big bucks on Ebay

The only difference was that the clone sister had dark hair.

The dress she is wearing was made by my mother when I was a little kid. I think it is one of 3-4 that survive.

Heh heh heh

I made these outfits

By hand.

The little suit for "Curtis" took longer than the "Clarissa's" gown because the jacket is lined and under the jacket he has a pink satin vest which is also lined.

Everything is satin--including Clarissa's unseen undies.

Yes, the depth of my depravity is impressive.

Surely you want to see the whole Miller Family

Yes, there they are--Curtiss and Clarissa and the children and the dog!
