Dolls make things way more fun!
Also, Janie managed to repair the dosing tank pump using a twelve dollar part, rather than replacing the entire pump, which would have cost more like twelve-hundred dollars, so yay!

How about we blow up the action figures and get back to "real doll" photos?

My first thought was that she doesn’t sew and is going to glue together some more clothes for herself.
Hey, action figures count too.

I think I know somebody who claims not to know how to sew, or at least not very well, so she often glues hems and seams.
Yeah, action figures count, but photos of action figures are far less popular than photos of doll-type dolls here on the Dolly Market forum –– which makes sense, I suppose.

I love mini golf! No use whatsoever for regular golf, but always enjoy the mini kind.
Ah, it looks so warm and sunny and nice.

It was a particularly nice day, even by Florida standards.

I found this teeny tiny Disney Queen of Hearts figure on the ground today while I was walking around the block.

You seem to have a knack for finding abandoned dolls and bears and things... no dump to check out, there?

No dump, but on "trash day" it seems like the typical procedure in this neighborhood is to pile everything that won't fit in the rubbish or recycling bins on the curbside, which includes furniture, framed pictures, yard debris, packing materials, and boxes full of miscellaneous junk. Some of the "junk" is occasionally pretty interesting.

The first step in rebuilding a fallen fence is disassembling whatever is still standing.

Fun perspective there.
It also looks very early in the morning somehow!

Late afternoon, so similar light, but a much higher likelihood of finding me awake!

Haha, same... no early mornings here. Unless I'm on my way to bed. I did much better going to bed early in Nova Scotia. Kitty gave me annoyed looks when I kept him up past his bedtime watching TV
Whatcha gonna build with the planks? More fence? Garden boxes? Or dolly stuff??

I am re-using the planks to rebuild the fence. I'm even trying to re-use as many of the old rusty screws as I can, in an attempt to not have to buy anything. This will likely be a temporary rebuild that I may need to take down again later -- depending on the septic tank situation -- so there's no point in investing money in the project right now.
