Everyone Needs Playtime

In our hectic, modern lives, many of us focus so heavily on work and family commitments that we never seem to have time for pure fun. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we stopped playing.

When we carve out some leisure time, we’re more likely to zone out in front of the TV or computer than engage in fun, rejuvenating play like we did as children. But play is not just essential for kids; it can be an important source of relaxation and stimulation for adults as well.

There doesn’t need to be any point to the activity beyond having fun and enjoying yourself. By giving yourself permission to play with the joyful abandon of childhood, you can reap oodles of health benefits throughout life.

Seven years ago I issued a challenge to celebrate 20 years of the modern BJD, that I had also done three years previously. As things have be...

Quick Update

"When one door closes, another one opens." Isn't that how the saying goes? 
Well it did for me . . . I purchased another full set Tulabelle this morning and for US$10 less than the one I previously ordered. :)  I've already received my tracking number and now I just have to wait until she arrives.

Seems that's all I ever do is wait! I'm still waiting for the original payment reversal to top up my dolly bank balance though, which I am not so pleased about, as I have already made plans to spend it!
Fortunately I managed to scrape together enough to make this purchase. :)

Just not sure on which doll though. I have been thinking about my Alysa on the CI body and she is much taller than my other Integrity dolls, which makes her all on her lonesome . . . poor thing, she really deserves a sibling or friend at least. So perhaps the kindest thing for me to do, would be to purchase a doll the same height.

You all agree right?
Somehow I can always find a valid reason for buying another doll.
So who do you think would make a great sister or friend for her?

Is Someone Trying To Tell Me Something?

Yes, it seems I simply cannot help myself. The only thing I can do is stay off this bloomin' 'puter altogether if I want to stop from purchasing more dolls!

I recently took the plunge and joined IT's W Club for the first time, then the Forum and was reminded in no uncertain terms that Tulabelle is doll I needed to bring home. So I ordered her and as normal, I paid for her immediately, then went to bed happy . . . BUT UNFORTUNATELY, MY HAPPINESS WAS SHORT LIVED!



THIS MORNING I AWOKE TO A CANCELLED ORDER!!
This has never happened to me before, and what made me really upset and angry was the store otherwise known as " Patt and Billys", didn't even have the courtesy to give any explanation as to why, which I think is very rude.

I have wanted this beautiful red haired lady ever since I first saw her, but I never thought I'd actually own one and now it looks like I never will.

NOT HAPPY JAN!!

Pretty Pink Porkers

Of all the animals in the world, my next favourite after dogs and bears, are pigs. They are so intelligent and funny, that today I thought I'd share a few of my favourite little PINK pigs that I have seen on the internet, with a few of my own captions. :)








I hope you enjoyed them, have a happy PINK weekend everyone!
Big hugs,
