Miss Kitty visited me in the office to supervise my typing.

Can you believe she's 18? Old enough to vote. XD

OMG, I am so sick. But I just got back from the doctor & am full of injected substances, so hopefully it won't devolve into one of those endless pneumonia sagas. Still, though--ow.

At the same time, it's so odd to have a disease that's acute & bound to actually go away with a little time & medication...it's almost like a vacation! :D A vacation with a lot of eardrum-blistering, & revolting coughing, & the feeling that my head's going to pop off. And total lack of voice. And fevers, can't forget those.

But still. In some perverse way, it's cheering me up--just by dint of being non-chronic. XD

On top of that, the contractor dudes have finished the weatherboarding on my garage, are mostly done rebuilding my back deck, & have made some progress on painting the bottom half of the house from this rather dreary hunter green (gag) to a nice deep gray with a hint of violet to it (to keep it from looking like Bondo -__-). It will look awesome once I get some perennials growing against it. I so love grey. (Yeah, quelle surprise.)

I still have nice dual-Softly-She-Walks pictures to post...one day...when my lungs quit trying to jump ship every time I cough. Maybe I'll spend some nice quiet time with PhotoShop!

On the doll front, I just got the most perfect black bob (sans fringe) in the mail on Friday. August-chan is the spitting image of Count D from Petshop of Horrors! ♥

I haven't taken a picture of the twins in ages, so here's a good excuse: I finally found a firehair wig for Soren, to go with August's long red-orange Poshdolls wig. It's a pretty fur from Bittenbefore, & it really suits his little oddball feral self. Also, they're Leos (like me!), so the fire motif is apropos & all. :p

( Another of the twins & a teaser of my newest chaos lace--with a hood! )

Not my best photographic efforts, but I have so much work being done on my house right now that I just have to sling them out, snap a picture & sling them back into their boxes! ;__; However, I'm having my front porch screened in (among other upgrades), so it's worth the bother.

Well, except for the fact that Search, my peachfaced lovebird, plucked his chest entirely bald the other morning due to stress over the construction noises. Poor baby, he & his now-deceased SO, Destroy, were abused by their last owner, & he has a lot of residual nervous problems. But, I'm keeping his cage covered for most of the day now, & I'm giving him some extra oil supplements & bird grit & peanuts & pine nuts to hull & a new shredding toy (he plucked after he entirely decimated the last one within the course of a few hours, evidently). So he appears to be letting his new pin feathers come in undisturbed. Little turkey...I even had to turn on the heat the other night, because he got cold. x__x

Hopefully coming soon (this weekend?): a double dose of Softly She Walks...Deep Shadow meets The Magician. Everything's been so crazy recently, I'd really like some time to just calm down & take doll pictures! And, gasp, maybe POST some here & there!!
