The Mad Hatters week

My week has been, wet. Wet, wet, wet.  The sky opened up and it poured. The temps dropped once again. But despite it being wet weather wise, the week has been amazingly good. I can't ask for more than that!

Reborn dolls

I admit, I have a passion for reborn dolls. I would love to own one or maybe 12. I want one for each of my children. Made to look like them when they were babies. These are some that turned out beautifully. Wouldn't you agree?

And next up I will share some reborn dolls that didn't turn out so well.

Pretty isn't it?

I came across this the other day and had to share. I would love to have it. I suppose my obsession with faeries and fantasy are showing.

It has been a long 10 months

  Hello my little madhatters. It has been a long and stressful 10 months. I know, I know. I haven't been the greatest at posting in that time.  I have been very stressed and working to get things back in order and back to where they needed to be. 

  For quite some time I had no internet and had only my phone to update the blog. Which by the way, didn't work as it should have. To be honest I'm not even sure where to begin.  Life has been insane, thats for sure. I want to update you on everything that has happened but I don't want to bore you either. 

   Bella (son's dog) died October 11, 2012 after being hit by a car. Witnesses say that it was intentional. Witnesses reported that the vehicle never tried to miss her (she was up on the curb for what its worth). The vehicle picked up speed and hit her head on. Dragging pieces of her for another 100 feet. After hitting Bella, the driver almost rear ended a dump truck that the construction crew was using to haul off dirt. One of the crew helped my daughter and I gather Bella up and gather up the pieces so she could be buried. It was bad. Dakota was upset. The last time I had seen him cry like that was when he was 3. It hit him hard that Bella was gone. I didn't know what to do. 

  Carsten (my dog) died November 22, 2012 after being attacked by a large dog, that resulted in his throat being crushed. I came home that night and was the one who found him. The entire neighborhood heard me that night. I was...devastated. I honestly don't recall much after finding him other than screaming and crying. Daniel said he had to pry Carsten's body from my arms. But I honestly don't remember. Carsten was my baby. He was always with me. The one night I leave him at home...he died. I will never find another companion like him. I walked around in a haze for quite some time after his death. I miss him and still find myself looking over to search for his precious little face. Only to find emptiness.  Bear bought me a Jack Russell Chi mix that looks similar to Carsten. I named him Caelen Morpheus Basì D'Ni. I went with a C name to follow Carsten's, since his was Carsten A'Darian D'Ni. I miss my baby. Caelen is sweet though.
We have just 6 dogs and 4 cats now. Rescued a cat today. Her name is Solìn because we thought she was a boy. But it sticks.


I got a new laptop finally (can we say cheers and screams?) and I love, love, LOVE it. It is a Samsung Series 3 with turbo processors etc.  Slowly working on loading my programs onto it. 

  The kids are all growing like weeds these days. L and D are both 10 now. C and S are 16 and 15. Noe is 13. H is 12. Chey is almost 20...I feel old. HA HA. I will get some pictures up this weekend of everyone.
