Hi Carole 
It sounds kind of nice to have a quiet Christmas. Both boys are coming home and it's not the merriest time around here. My oldest split up with the gal he has been in a relationship in for 14 years just before Thanksgiving. Just to add to that huby's dad died in the Fall and things just haven't been the same sense.
On a bright note, I sold a doll for $1,200.00 for Christmas It was sold to someone that bought one of my dolls last year for his wife that collects them. I got so excited I could hardly talk when he said "money is no object, I already bought a doll from you and I know they are worth it." I am still amazed LOL
I didn't have much time to work on dollies this year. I was taking care of huby's father while he was on his death bed. I think I totally missed the whole summer. I'm not complaining.. we have lived next to him our whole married life. He was like my own dad to me.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and the best of New Years.
Hugssssss to all!!!!!
Mic
