My sister had one of the original AG dolls, Felicity I think? But never got that far into the cult.
The walk through went ok, except for the fact that the seller took all the curtain rods, when our contract specifically states that he is to leave them.
Well, that's a bit odd.
Nora, sounds like a good time, and productive, too.
Happy anniversary, Scrappy!
Okay, we're gonna try this productivity thing again.
Sox - a woman at work has a daughter even deeper into the American Girl doll cult - HER doll goes for spa treatments. When they opened a store near us, they stood in line to get in and worship. And pay.

The original dolls were Samantha, Molly, and Kirsten. Felicity and Addy were added a few years later.
A group my mother belongs to - collecters of a certain pattern of antique dishes - sued the AG company for copyright infringement (they'd used THEIR pattern, which was copyrighted, on Addy's ... tea set, I think it was).
Well, that's a bit odd.
I thought so too. We have the closing in a few hours.
The newest historical dolls are Cecile and Marie-Grace, who live in New Orleans in the 1850s. Lots of frilly dresses to buy for them, as well as Mardi Gras costumes.
Interesting.
I have a co-worker who each year scans resale shops and ebay and finds an AGD and then makes it a wardrobe and donates it to her local school to give as a Christmas present to a child in need.
I would have loved the historical dolls when I was a kid. Particularly all the interesting little things you could get for them. (Less the clothes more the books, teasets, pets.)
I thought so too. We have the closing in a few hours.
It's possible the movers misunderstood in the craziness of packing? At any rate, good luck today and get your signing hand ready!

Maybe Samantha, then? IDK.
Fingers crossed for you that the closing goes well, sj!!
I have eaten breakfast, fed animals, done dishes, swept two rooms, and scooped the cat pans. Now to take Frankie to the park and then get on the job thing. I've laid out a rough schedule for today, hoping that will help me stay on track and not get distracted and overwhelmed. And I'm wearing Supergirl underwear and my "Defying gravity" shirt for inspiration (and a skirt, don't be silly).
eta and I also broke in two and dumped the rest of my cigarettes.
