I need to have a break as my bank balance needs to recover and I need to get stock listed but I found myself ripping the head off a Sera which I bought on ebay. She arrived looking very mauve and I planned just to correct her colouring. But I havent bonded with her at all - she's over-stuffed and just not good.
Her hair sort of fell out as you touched it and so I didnt really need to remove the glue. After having another look at her I decided to strip her and start her again. So out came the acetone - fortunately the local chemist knows what I am doing with the stuff! - and the kids picked out her remaining hair
trouble is whoever had rooted her had left so many holes that she looks like she has cradle cap (or cradle crap as my 3 year old calls it) - I could leave it for effect or could find out where to get a wig.
Other than inhaling acetone and paint stripper fumes today I took the 2 youngest to a pancake morning where they made paper frying pans and ate pancakes and strawberries. And I drank coffee because we had run out here - and chatted too. The life of a housewife is very hard!
I took trista to the post office to weigh her yesterday (1.5kg) and then in to the chemist to show her off and then in to tesco's to buy dinner and met Jo (who wants a baby once I am good enough) and as I was paying she announced to her eldest that I had a baby in the bag - look!
OMG what will the locals think!!
This is Sera so far. I have saved her from rigor mortis but cant get all the blue off so will just avoid the blue tones I think. If that doesnt work I could always paint her Purple and pretend she is Tinky Winky
