My Tonner men dolls have been laying around my house naked for months.  I buy them cheap from Ebay--and they usually are naked as someone bought them for their clothing--or someone bought them cheap and separated the doll from the clothing and attempted to make massive profits by selling them separately.

I don't care about the clothes, especially, as I can make my own clothing.

However, I don't get a whole lot of joy out of sewing for the men dolls; thus, the poor things have been laying around nude.  If they had any, they would have frozen their gonads off.  Poor things.

Well, I finally cut out a bunch of shirts and pants for them and have begun sewing them.  I have finished three shirts and two pairs of pants.



This is my Rhett Butler doll from the Gone with the Wind Collction.  I liked this brown fabric--it looked like something a man's shirt would be made of.



Here he is wearing the brown pants I made for him.  I bought the brown shoes from a doll friend's "boutique" for doll clothes and shoes.  $14 for a pair of doll shoes.  Ouch.  The men aren't getting many shoes.  Most of them are going to go barefoot for a while.



This is my Lord Asriel doll from the Golden Compass collection.  I got him naked too.  His pants are tan corduroy.  The shirt is kind of a cream and green.  I have a sleeveless cream-colored t-shirt  to put under the shirt. 

I have a second shirt just like the first brown one sewn, and I am almost done sewing another pair of brown pants. 

I have a variety of shirts cut out.  I have a pair of light tan pants cut out too.  I need to cut out some more pants.  I have a few more stark naked men dolls laying around.

I like to sew for the Marley dolls the most.  They are very sweet.

As usual, the weekend went by way too fast.

It snowed Friday night and into Saturday, so I did not go anywhere until after 7 pm on Saturday night.  I went to Jim and DeAnn's for supper and to watch "How Green Was My Valley."  Swayzers was so darn cute.  He was shy at first, but then he warmed up and kept coming to talk to me and hand me books and toys.  He told me that Bah and Pah were upstairs.  (Bear and Patsy)...lol.

Before I went to their house, I did some cleaning and picking up in the house.  I did a load of laundry and baked a big batch of chocolate chip cookies.  I bagged up about 2/3rds of them and took them to Jim and DeAnn's house. 

This morning, I got up reasonably early for a Sunday morning and went directly to Owatonna to Walmart where I bought groceries.  I was going to buy a small pillow for my knee to rest against while I drive.  Every bump and dip in the road joggles my knee and makes it hurt.  My knee hurt a lot today.  It may be time to get another cortizone injection.

I made roast beef with potatoes, onions, and carrots when I got home.  I put it in the oven on low while DeAnn and I went to see the movie "New in Town."  It was cute, but terribly improbable and very predictable..

NOTE TO ALL CONCERNED: 

MINNESOTANS DO NOT TALK LIKE THAT, ACT LIKE THAT, OR LOOK LIKE THAT.

When I got home, I threw another load of laundry in.  I also made baked chicken and rice with onion, celery, and carrot.  It smelled really good.  I didn't taste it as I was full after eating some of the roast beef.

I don't have much else to say at the moment.

I'm tired and it is after 10pm, so I should go to bed and sleep.

When I get home from school tomorrow, I will try to maintain enough energy to finish the laundry and perhaps vacuum.  I did not get that done this weekend.

I am tired.

I definitely need to sleep.  I will put away my clean clothes first, however.  I already filled my pill cadddies for the week.

Well, good night all.
