The second surgery on my leg is almost nine weeks past by now and I slowly learn to walk again, now that I may put my full weight on the leg again. I'm still a bit in pain, can't do everything I want yet, mostly still have to stay in the flat und am quite the nervous wreck, especially since my husband's search for a new job starts in full force now.
Still, I try to work a bit on the website again because I'm tired of doing nothing.
As a first step I work on making the Monster High doll galleries complete to gain more space in my doll room for taking photos then for the Dolltopia photo comic and the photo Wacky Winglings.
Furthermore I have some finished craft items which I have to take photos of - partly to write sewing instructions and other tutorials then.
I doubt I'll find the calmness to draw and write before my husband found new work and I'm in better shape physically again. Right now I have to train my leg over and over and then recover.
Since I know there's a lot of Sailor Moon fans around here's a little tip from me. If you always wanted a Sailor Moon doll and also like my Pullips anyway this could be a thing for you. By the end of August Pullip Sailor Moon comes out to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the popular manga.
I'll pass on her but I think many fans will like her. Since each Pullip is only made for a limited time (usually one month) you shouldn't wait for too long in case you want her.
I might have bought her but my hobby money for September is already spent and I don't plan any farther without a new job. Or does anyone want to sponsor me with some money so I can buy her for Dolltopia? No? I thought so. ;)
If my husband has a new job in October and you left one available for me I might buy her, after all. But only for the wig and to give the nerdy Batman an equally comic-crazy girlfriend.
Europeans can buy her at e.g. Plastikpop. For US shops, take a look at Ebay. There should be lots of vendors who sell them. And nope, I don't earn anything for this advert, ha ha.
EDIT:
I bought this doll, after all, and can only warn everyone not to buy her!
A thourough review with photos of the desaster will be posted soon.
Oh, before I forget! Something about the Sims section!
No, I didn't stop making stuff for Sims, there just was no time for it thanks to my broken leg.
And no, there is no phishing in the downloads, Kaspersky has a super-stupid formula which spits out false alarms! Phishing in a download doesn't even make ANY SENSE!
The most important news though: We switched off comments in the Sims section. Despite many tries it wasn't possible to adapt the code to allow me to actually answer to your nice comments. Especially when someone posted a comment to an older set I could never find out where that comment was - the paths just didn't work. Since this is useless for all sides and Sims comments were the most overrun with spambots anyway we switched them off. If you want to say something or notify me of a problem please use the forum or write me an email. (Or post in the guestbook if it's just generic praise or rants.)
Still a big thanks to everyone who took the time to post there - even if I couldn't always answer, I read all entries!
