Jeeze Doc's Gal! That's no fun. Thank goodness someone was there to take you in. I like living alone, but I do worry about what would happen if I had a stroke or an attack of appendicitis while I'm here by myself. Take care of yourself and keep us informed as you recover!

Dang lady!! I bet you were thinking, oh I am just tired from working on the dolls and blew it off, didn't you???

So glad you are okay, and are home and recovering.. Hugs to you!!

Yeah, I was actually thinking that too, muesky. I mean, I had been moving them all around a lot too. My symptoms were not typical of appendicitis, more like pancreatitis, so I have to admit, I got really scared when they told me appendicitis. But the good thing is that the surgery is over and now I can begin to recover. Seriously though, my organs need to stop trying to evict themselves from my body...I'm not a live donor, LOL!

I hope you're taking it easy in terms of moving heavy dolls about while you recover.

I will not be lifting any dolls for the next few months, for sure.

I have shipped dolls using regular boxes and telescoping them down on each other with the flaps so it makes very very strong box taped and with cord for carrying ease.

Yeah, so MRD can do one starting at about $10,200. I wonder what their lead time is on production?

Yep, I do have my work cut out for me, no pun intended, or is it?
My next task after getting them repaired, is to find large enough boxes and get a shit ton of giant bubble wrap to get the ones I am parting with ready to go to their new homes. Like I said earlier, the TPE males and female are already wrapped, boxed and ready to go to their new homes, as soon as someone "pays their moving expenses" LOL.
I can tell you that so far, this has definitely been quite the learning experience. I feel like I am learning a lot from this adventure.
I've felt so many emotions during the repairs that range from elation to frustration.
I tip my hat to those who have been doing doll repairs for years and especially to those who are just getting into the game.

*overheard on the intercom* "Paging Dr. Sportello! Dr. Sportello needed in doll surgery STAT!"

Well, I guess that means, I've got to go for now. Have a great Saturday, everyone!
