Hello, My Long Lost Pals!

Hello there, all my long lost pals out there! You've all been so kind to ask about us. We're so sorry to cause people to worry.

I haven't been able to blog much lately because mommy's had her hands full with some new developments in her life. We should probably fill everyone in... Let's start with today and move backwards, shall we?

Today was the Atlanta Halloween Blythe Meet and it was a total blast. We really missed some of our regulars, but we got to meet some great new folks!


It was so much fun. We ate, swapped, crafted, and talked lots!


Looky looky here! Dianne crocheted us these awesome little pumpkins. Cute pumpkins should be worn, not just displayed. That way, they will always be with you and never get left behind. So I told mommy to make mine into a headband. Mommy liked my idea so much that she snapped one for Picture 46/365 for the 365 Days Blythe Project.


Lookit how adorable we all look with our pumpkins and headbands!


There were so many lovely goodies from everyone! I will be fat and happy all the way until Halloween! Thank you thank you thank you!!!


Along the lines of other developments...

In mid-September, mom and dad visited Auntie M and Uncle Oidon at Anime Weekend Atlanta recently. I got to go too and we had a good time. I tried on a Blythe hat that Auntie M made for humans to wear. Humans sure do have large noggins.


And on to the more serious stuff... Around the beginning of September, mom started a new job. She's still at the same company, but just in a different area.

It's been really different for her. She loved her old job lots and lots, but she really wants to build her resume with more accounting experience to complement her finance work. Gee whiz, adults are so complicated and serious. All I want is to add some more cupcake eating to my food experience.

She's such a dork that she freaked out when she found this vintage calculator at an antique sale intown. Yes, only finance and accounting nerds collect calculators.


On top of her new job, mommy is taking 7 credit hours this semester, which leaves her way too little time for me. Boo.

And on top of THAT, she's still doing shows and festivals with her jewelry business. There was the Candler Park Fall Fest last weekend. Next weekend will be the Avondale AutumnFest. And then she has the Paideia Art Visions show in November.

When will the craziness stop? I have no idea. Daddy and I keep trying to tell her to slow down, but she is as stubborn as they come.

And finally... Mommy is getting REALLY FAT. It's all in her belly. She says it's because she's growing me a sister. Zelda, Ramona, and I came from a factory in Japan, so I have no freaking clue what she's talking about. This is our only clue...


Ta-ta for now, and we hope to update you all again soon!
