Geez I haven't posted in a while. Reminds me of a saying I once heard, "All bad bloggers go to Facebook" or in my case Facebook and Instagram lol.
We're on the last leg on school holidays (yeehaa). Looking forward to having some me time and getting on top of my housework and never ending pile of washing.
I've had a frustrating week of shopping this week. Found a really cute dress (I hardly ever wear dresses) only to find it sold out in my size at two stores and online. Then ordered some really cute shoes online only to discover when they were delivered I had ordered the UK size not the Aussie size which made them two sizes too big for moi. Then I accidentally fell in love with a cute hand bag, well two cute hand bags actually but they were out of my price range for hand bags i didnt really need I thought no worries I will find them cheaper online and I did but the store won't send to Australia. Ugh!
I've been toying with the idea of upgrading my iPhone from the 3GS to the 5 all because my Fitbit will be able to wirelessly update rather than having to turn on my pc (that is dead anyway thanks to the power supply kicking the bucket). Ridiculous I know, but little things bug me, especially technical things. I like things to work properly and I am pedantic, maybe anal...yes definitely anal lol. Anyway so I've been doing my research and the main thing that puts me off iPhone 5 is the plug, why on earth did Apple have to change the plug?! It means that the phone won't fit into any of my MP3 players and I just bought a digital radio that has the old iPhone plug on it grrrr. I'll also need to get a new in car kit because my car doesn't have the blue tooth to be able to connect with the phone. So I don't know what to do. I really wanted to just upgrade to a 4s but now my phone company doesn't offer the 4s. Maybe I should just buy a 4s phone outright and be done with it. Or maybe I should just bite the bullet and buy a 5, I guess all the equipment that goes with it will be starting to make plugs that fit that and not the old devices anyway sooner or later. Or if they have this new Bluetooth maybe they won't need plugs at all???? Ah technology O_o
On to dolls. I have fallen in love with tan dolls. I just bought a Secretdoll Person 21 in tan, can't wait until she arrives. I would love to get a pale tan Enyo and a pale tan Dollstown Seola one day. These are my wishlist dolls for this year. I've decided to make a few changes this year and I'm going to definitely sell my Kurumi, Yo-SD Lin and Angel Egg Noi (I know I only just got her) and Pipos Heero. With Kurumi as much as I love her and she was my "grail" doll I've decided I much prefer the look of SD Charlotte, so maybe one day I can get a Charlotte again and with Yo-sd Lin I much prefer Yo-sad Kanon so again maybe one day down the track I might try to get a Kanon (so great Volks has just re-released Kanon). Even if I don't end up getting the others I feel comfortable with letting Kurumi and Lin go.

October Photo Challenge 2012 ~ Halloween
Ooops a day late, never mind ;o)
This is Boo my Halloween Kuroo hoping you all had a great Halloween. We went to aussiedolls house for some spooky fun. I made a brain cake for the occasion. Red Velvet on the inside with cream cheese frosting, pink fondant and strawberry "blood" sauce. Yummy!
In keeping with the spooky theme I went to a "meet the spirits of Kalamunda Hotel" night at the start of the week. It is an old pub renowned for its ghostly residents. It was hosted by author Barbara Parks. Although I didn't get any personal messages it was still an interesting night. A guy a few seats down from me took this amazing shot of orbs that were behind where I was sitting.
In other non spooky news, we got a new kitty!! Adopted through Instagram would you believe!! I've always wanted a white cat with one blue eye and one green eye ever since I can remember. When I started doing that 20 day cleaning challenge a few weeks back (remember all my boring cleaning photos Instagram peeps lol) I met a fellow cleaning challenge lady quite randomly, she liked one of my pics, added me, I added her. I was looking through her Instgram pics and there was one of two kittens, one white and one ginger, they were brothers. I commented how I've always wanted a white kitty with eyes like that and she said they are my foster babies and it went from there. However he was on the other side of Australia to me. Thankfully I have the most amazingly kind and patient husband and we were able to adopt him and fly him over to us. He is an amazing little man, very friendly and affectionate. The first night we got him home, after only being at our house probably an hour he was curled by my side in bed purring loudly. I just love him to bits. We've called him Merlin and what a magical little fellow he is and I feel very lucky to have him in my life <3
In doll news, I ordered a little Fabric Tiny Delf. Didn't plan to, can't even remember what lead me to the Luts site in the first place! Anyway she has a very sweet face, and a cute witchy outfit and I like the idea of the cloth body.

Blah blah blah blah
* Still haven't had a chance to finish my 20 day cleaning challenge. I am determined to finish it when the kids go back to school next week.
* Received my Angel Egg doll in the mail yesterday. I need to get her a wig that fits properly. She is beautiful and weird all at the same time. I'm sad that I didn't have that love at first sight feeling with her that I hoped for. We'll see I guess.
* I went into a mad panic yesterday when I saw the new Angel Egg dolls for sale. Of course in my eyes they are more beautiful than the one I ordered even though its exactly the same body and head mold, it's just the painting that is different. Anyway I thought if I sell another doll I could order one. But these days selling a doll that costs over a thousand dollars doesn't happen straight away, of course my doll hasn't sold so I have not ordered another doll. I did come to my senses when I had calmed down that I am actually pretty lucky to have the doll I have and I do not need another one. I need to count my blessings more often I think.
* We might be getting another kitty, not saying more because I don't want to jinx it.
* I've had a very sore shoulder. Not sure if its from too much cleaning lol or pilates. Maybe a combo of both. I've been using Tiger Balm by the truck load, it does help surprisingly. Last night I had the best nights sleep thanks to nurofen and tiger balm lol.
* The doll room is still being sorted out. I still haven't really used it yet for craft or photos. Taking me a while to settle in to that room. It is feeling more like me room but not totally I don't know why. I'm procrastinating I know......
* Oh well that's all I guess.
