Time for an update as to how the day went. I did get to the Post office and mailed my package....finally! I'm glad that's done.
I was a bad girl and stopped at McD's just to get their hamburgers. (That's all I got from there.)
On the way, I tried to walk on the sidewalk, which was pretty tricky since it was just coated with ice. I am so tempted sometimes to bring some kind of ice melting crystals or whatever is safe for cement sidewalks. Noone should have to walk down block after block of ice-laden sidewalks.
Then a trip to the dollar store to pick up some dollmaking needles, deodorant and a couple other things. Then a quick trip to the grocery store to get some food for meals this weekend. For some reason they'd either pulled all their Tai Pei frozen chinese dishes, or sold out of them. Darn. And I was hoping to get a small container of their General Tso's chicken. Ah well....
When I got home, the sidewalks along the main road were also covered in ice, so that made for more treacherous walking. At least the sidewalks in this complex are treated.
I was so tired from my trip that I rested briefly. Kept getting interrupted by phone calls tho, from various places (I'd rather not say where for personal reasons). Between that and my kitties jumping on me, it was a fitful rest.
I did finally rest a bit and fed the kitties around 4pm, among other things. Also took a few pictures of some new Bratz stuff. My camera takes horrid pictures, and it's an 8 megapixel Olympus...the pics turn out kinda grainy which bugs me. I always thought the higher the megapixels, the better the images. Guess not.
But anyway, here's a pic of Ciara, who I've renamed Clara:

Since I already have a Ciara (one of my Wicked Twiins repros), I changed this girl's name to Clara. I don't understand why MGA recycles names....or why they have to have so many characters, for that matter. I've said for years that they only have 2 head molds for the girls but over 50 characters. They're starting to look alike now.
Then there's one of my former Cloes who I turned into my version of Rina, who I'm calling Rinna:

Before you say anything, I already know that she doesn't look that good. I tried to lighten her skintone and I didn't do as nice of a job as I'd thought. Same with the eyes. I'll probably end up buying the real Rina....who will be renamed as Rinna, just as this "wannabe" is. But again, please no comments about how bad she looks only because I know that already.
Ok that's it for tonight. TTYL tomorrow. :)
