I Can't Take It Anymore

Look, crafting for the kids is fun and all but I am missing my dolls! Facebook ruining my writing style. I can only think in short blurbs. I need my dolls, my blog and mostly my awesome doll friends.

And you know what, I'm still desperate for the kids to go to bed. But now, after they're in bed, I'm pacing the house wondering what else I can do but prep kiddie crafts! Corset Kitten had it right when she told me I had to keep writing. I'm craving it desperately.

So the plan is this: the week after Christmas, I'm moving the girls into one room. Then Iris's room (which was the original Barbie room) will be their classroom. (Their class room is currently in the old Barbie room/craft room). Their classroom/playroom will have lots of space and room for the ridiculous lesson plans I've been doing.

Anywho, look for me near the beginning of the year. Let's make some drama again!


smooches!

    Does it make me a terrible person to say that I'm happy you'll be returning to the doll world LOL? I've missed the crazy antics of Hanna and am going through what could possibly happen to Felix and Dani! Try to find a balance. Post when you feel like it and try not to pressure yourself. That's what I do :).

    Hey, welcome back, at least to some degree. You've totally been missed! I'm so the same-- hyper spastic all or nothing, lol. One of these days we'll find that magic balance, eh? Also, facebook is the devil. Looking forward to seeing you post again, babe! Hugs!

      Miss you too Sergio. I'm already thinking about what's next, what will change. I gotta catch up on my doll blogs!

    So good to see a post from you. If you figure out how to handle it all...PLEASE...shoot me an email of how you do it, LOL. I average 2 to 3hrs of sleep every night because I have to create learning materials for my little visual learner. I do enjoy making materials for her and one-upping the teachers/providers who said she wasn't getting something, only to have her show them up, I miss my doll time like nobody's business. :( I figure that's why I'm so darn cranky lately...I need my fix! And by fix, it's either gotta be more time for me to do photo stories or drama like I like it from Vita Plastica. ;)

      Oh Tracy, I have no idea how to handle it all. Or how to even handle a fraction of it. When the busy season at work is over, that's one thing. I can lesson plan all day. But now? We'll see!

      Man, it's like I was suddenly alone and restless without these little stories happening in my head! My mind's already full of what will happen next in Grandville.

      It's been very empty in my head without 5 different storylines going!

But first, some news: Projects: Still working on the studio space for Remi and Bailey. The Hubs came in and voiced what was in my head, "So where is that kid supposed to sleep? That's messed up. There's no room for him?"  The last thing I wanted in Grandville is a kid's room. I don't want this rated R world changing into something wholesome. Buuut, if there is to be a custody battle for Julian, I have to make the case, right? So on top of the studio space, I'll build a little room for the brat to use. Maybe I'll give it a fun theme or something. Space or sci-fi or something that doesn't involve sports. I'm also working on a space backdrop for Nymeria and her sister. Then I can finally introduce you. I decided to go with a sort of cheesy 60's sci fi movie thing. That's what inspired the Alurium Vaccarra anyway. So, a sort of intentionally cartoony backdrop. The last project for now is my high school. I wanted it to be a three-...

[in that spongebob narrator voice] Ten Years Later

By
 Well friends, it's been 10 years!  I'm not sure if any of my older friends and followers still blog or still read blogs.  I've been in the BJD hobby all this time a while it was satisfying and helped me to grow a lot as a dioramist, the call of the 1/6 scale dolls called back to me.   It was hard to make stories for BJDs because of the limited number of characters and sets.  While I no longer have a town to make stories with, nor (hardly) any of my original dolls, my new collection continues to grow and some of them are just itching to tell you all about themselves.  But these heauxs don't even have names except for two.  So lemme get on that... Returning to this hobby feels a bit lonely. My doll community was here in the blogosphere, my BJD community was through youtube and Facebook. Where are you, racy playscale collectors?  Let's get back together!  Instagram feels unsuitable for my needs. I'll see if I can direct traffic here. Who k...

The Giveaway! And more.

You guys, let's talk. After I set up Grandville in the new house, I was sort of bored. I liked getting everyone unpacked but I really didn't feel like telling my stories, posing dolls, finding outfits for them. I didn't know where to take this doll thing next. And since my doll break at the end of last year, I've filled up my evenings with other things, especially Facebook where I remember I'm a writer again (in short blurbs). But what I don't feel like writing, are doll stories. I was at this doll crossroads, and already donating and trading away some good stuff when I became suddenly, surprisingly aware that I was (am) pregnant! How did this happen? Well I have a few ideas. I'm 37, I had been debating whether to have another. Sometimes, I swear, I'd be sitting with the girls and think I'm hearing a 3rd kid crying in the background. So that choice was made for me I'm very happy about it (and terrified). And the choice about dolls was made ...
