I was surprised it had been three years. I looked up the purchase date: October 2022. So only two and a half years, I guess. This Amelia is Number Ten. According to my notes, Number Nine was purchased in 2020, five years ago, and she hasn't been out of her box, either.
I guess I can narrow down the time-frame during which my enthusiasm for All Things Dolly began to subside.

Difference in Outlook
"It'll be great!"
"It'll be a lot of work! Dirty, messy, icky work that takes forever!"
"I know, right? Like I said, it'll be great!"
Janie loves this stuff. Triv not so much.

First step: Trivia begins to pry up trim boards... most of which are already loose

While Triv works on the corner trim inside, Janie disconnects
