Today's news

Well nothing new to report AGAIN regarding the status of my "massive" 17 song accompaniment order. I really do need to keep trusting the Lord. I am just praying now that I won't be scammed. I must have faith!!!! I hear the Lord telling me that.

Which reminds me, I need to check a track I digitized recently. Apparently the track has a skip in it since the timing of the song is not quite right due to it. UGH. I hate when this happens, but glad I found out now before I actually tried to use the track.

I also need prayer about some things. One is a situation on my job that I don't want to get into here, in case some of the "higher-ups" at work find this blog. Another is for a friend. So for those of you who pray, please pray about these 2 things.

Found out my mom has really low blood pressure....the result of not getting enough fluids daily...she fights drinking water, tea, juice, any kind of fluid and she's also elderly, so I am praying that she does so.

Dolly news! My Flatsy clone "Linda" arrived and she is a cutie. She's the size of a regular Flatsy, and she's in her original, albeit beat-up, packaging.


She does look a tiny bit freaky, but hey she's a clone and her name is Linda, same as mine except I'm Lynda with a Y. I like her. Maybe I will make her less scary looking, fix her eyes or something. I'll see.

I also got some Dawn clones in the mail. Woooohooo! One is a Cara doll, who looks a lot like Dawn herself but has no head mold numbers. One is a doll still in her packaging (but not for long) who has brown short hair & face paint similar to Dawn....once I take pics of her I can find out if she has head mold information. Then there were three surprise dolls: Jeannie dolls by SS Kresge: 1 blonde, 1 brunette, and 1 "redhead"! They are so groovy!!! I want so badly to put them on Dawn bodies so they can wear her clothes. Jeannies are 7.5 inches tall - amazons in Dawn's world! But since I have three of these now, I am fighting the urge. Hoo boy, another doll who'll need her own set of clothes. Hmmmm....maybe I should...then again....indecision!

I need to make sure and remember some of my "quickie" doll projects to work on when I have time: I have a pair of reg. sized Bratz denim capris (I think?) that are the perfect length for Dawn as bell bottom jeans, but the waist is too big. I'll need to trim some excess in back and then attach either velcros or snaps. Many folks hate velcro but I find it easier than snaps, plus I don't have to worry about them getting stuck together and trying to pry them apart. That's happened a lot lately, and it's a bit dangerous for me. So, I'll use velcro.

I hate to say it, but I should get to bed early tonight. Maybe Miss Insomnia will not make an appearance. I'll see. I sound like a broken record, LOL!

TTFN and remember it is better to OBEY the Lord in all things, life will be easier for you!
