Well, this blog is sadly overseen. I tend to go to the Swedish blog to write and this keeps falling into oblivion. I just don't feel like going here to do any blogging, as I keep chattering away on Facebook instead - and use the Swedish blog for my regular dollie updates. 

I have just swapped laptops and don't have any photo program on the new one so I am sort of stuck for the moment to that. I have loads of pictures on the other laptop. Was thinking of adding something here when I realized just that. Nothing here - it's all on the other one. 

I also need to fix a page on the doll site... A few days more before I am back home. 

I can talk about some garage sales I have been to this summer. Not much in dolly way but I scored some cuties on one of them. Got one for free as her leg had a hole in the back. That one was a tnt brunette - although in bad need of a reroot. Her face is über pretty and her legs click (although she does have that flaw of an injured leg back side). 

So. Not much to tell at this point. 

Well, I mostly came in here to get rid of the ads. Be Gone!

Due to big weather problems in the area some of my host's server parks is down. Of course the one that is hosting my site (among with many others). They are working on the problem and I can only hope that it will be back up again without any bigger hassle.

...ehh doll? There is this new show on Swedish television called Bytt är bytt. That means something like swapped is swapped. There are two contestants - well they compete together against the show, so to speak. There are seven people with different kind of collector items or antiques with a range of estimated values from 5000 to 500000 Skr in the studio. Then it's up to the contestants to put two items up against each other and choose the most valuebale one, or rather dismiss the less valued one, as they will win whatever the value of the last standing item, preferably the half a mil. One of the items was a Barbie doll. Not just any Barbie doll.... 

Capture: "Compared to a doll that is not Top of the Line"


It was a nice #1 blonde Ponytail Barbie, complete with her accessories in the small plastic bag with the booklet and her stand. They had her up against a chess board in glass and bronze and they did pick the right item, due to value but to call this girl "Not top of the line"?? Sheesh. Her value was in the show estimated to 25000 Skr but it would be more close to 30K, although that step wasn't an option (5K, 10K, 25K, 50K, 100K, 250K, 500K) but the chess board wsa second top item of all. I think. Didn't catch the whole show. 

Anyway. Not top of the line??? Get a grip...

OK, I have been asked to blog in English, maybe I will give it a try then and kickstart this other blog after all. I really want to have one that is intertwined and directly connected to the Kattis Dolls site, but I haven't found one I like and Crosswinds, the host of my site, is using WordPress as their default blog portal, which I am not too fond of. It's outdated and I can't seem to fix and modify anything there the way I want it. It's hard getting used to something entirely new. I just want some place to add all those random thoughts and pictures etc, that doesn't quite fit in with the (new) site. I will have the head molds there as always (static stuff) and the old site remains as a sub domain/site behind the new one. But all those random dolls you find, stuff you want to share, anything else not fitting in with the site platform - I need a blog for it! 

Since I already am frequently using the Swedish blog, I am unsure how to pursue this one. Would I/should I go back and pick up all the blog entries I made there and translate them (without Google's CrazyTrans) or do I just start over? I might pick up something from there though. Randomly. I doubt I will make two of the same entries in the blogs from here on either. I am way too lazy for that - and quite frankly, don't have all that time on my hands to make a twin presentation each time. Buuut.... time will tell how this works out from here. 


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Meanwhile I'd like to introduce you to some of my doll pals. My travel companions and adventurers. Since the pictures are picked from different uploads they are all, or nearly all, different in framing or not, etc. Normally all photos in my posts are finished the same way. LOL! 

Well.... these are not all the dolls I use in various photo stories, on site, in blog, or mostly in my head but they are the core of the gang. 


Introducing Ester and the niece and nephew (by blood or not is yet to be determined), Kitty and Ronny: 

 Ester, my #1 grown up, travel doll. 

Used to be a Dream Date PJ but got a new Fashionistas body, which is a fact my own niece blurted out about: "She doesn't match!". *brat* 


Ronny & Kitty: 

 Kitty is my tiny Alter Ego and Ronny is her brother

Kitty used to be a Surfer Lorena and Ronny is a former Ryan (rerooted by my friend Angie DeBunce). Here they side up in an Steffi Love Evi Minnie Mouse bug. More of the kids and friends here :) As most of my dolls their hair is all over the place. Well... they are driving (HUH??) with the top down. *du-uh* 


My travel dolls going - travelling! By train. 


Ester chatting with Rosie's cousin Amie

Amie is a recent and not too frequent house guest, a former Fashionistas Barbie, while Rosie is a yah... a former Fashionistas Barbie! And not pictured. I just happen to like this shot of the two, visiting Fuchsia, yet another unseen dolly pal. 


Meet Milly. Or Silly Midget as Serafina calls her.

(Used to be DreamHouse Midge) Milly is not the brightest star in the sky but she has her moments. And to her defense, she is a sweet kid and don't have a iota bad blood in her system. She is just a bit.... over the rainbow so to speak. A bit blabbery... And totally adorable. 


Yet unnamed P!nk. Not sure what to call her. She has been dubbed Katy.

Ms P!nk used to be a Fashionistas Swapping Head - only! I stole a body from some Fashionistas Barbie and gave it permanently to her. The body didn't have the Swapping Head function... Another silly girl - but somewhat "brighter" than Milly. 


Serafina - the one and only

She used to be a 2013 Holiday Barbie AA but got a body makeover and is now proudly wearing a Fashionistas body. She's the queen of snottyness and kickass attitude. But she is great pals with Ester. Must be that Ester doesn't give a hoot about her mood swings. And Serafina really loves her friends, no matter how she treats Milly. I dare you to treat Milly the way she does. Then this girl will pull out her whip for ya'! She's got a big heart. For her friends. Just never shows it! And she has a pink poodle named Lucifer!
