About a year ago Ray helped me to upgrade the lighting in the Beacon Hill dollhouse that my dad built for me in 1994. I've opened a Beacon Hill 2014 Album and started uploading photos. I've also done several other miniature projects over the past few years. I was also published in Miniature Collector Magazine with one of my scenes. Please excuse my updating these albums a few at a time. I'll try to sign on daily. Its not that Ray doesn't have me surrounded with the latest and best computer equipment. But, I've got Graves Disease. Had radiation treatment, but unfortunately by the time I changed doctors and was properly diagnosed and fast-tracked through the system it left behind some health problems. I am thankful though that I do feel much better than I've felt in years. A diagnosis is a good thing. Thankfully the disease did not affect my eyes. I can't spend the hours at a time doing projects like I used to. I have to work when I can and only as long as I'm able. Its good to be back here. Looking forward to going through everyone's albums and catching up. I have an iPad as well as this huge Mac Pro that I'm sitting at right now .... with something called Fusion Drive and other techno babble that Ray knows It is very fast and efficient, but I sit here when I'm planning on doing a fair bit of typing as I'm a touch typist

Doesn't show new lighting, but I think these dolls and toys are just so darn cute. Artisan who made some easter cupcakes for me also made some that had bites taken out of them and crumbs. She is amazing. -

For all of you who remember me from way back when, you'll remember my love of my Tuxedo Cat Dudley. He passed away the summer of 2006 and has left me with a hole in my heart. It was only about six months ago that I could finally bring myself to pull out his photos (film in those days) and commission an artisan to bring him back to life in miniature for me. Here he sits in the Beacon Hill Master Bedroom alongside the mini reproductions of his two lifelong friends (still living), Missymew (laying in front of him in her classic pose), and Trinity (little black bobtail standing in the middle of the photo). Working in miniature is so therapeutic, but everything has its time. Sometimes grief holds us back until we're ready. Dean was so kind to open the Rainbow Bridge Pet Photo Album and let me put Dudley's photo as the first one in the album. Thank you Dean. I also created the Rainbow Bridge Scene as one of our Spring Fling Projects. -

Crystal chandelier in dining room. I'd bought a larger one for the Living Room that matched this, but (and let this be a lesson to everyone), didn't check out that it worked. It sat in my Miniatures' Electrical Box for a few years before Ray installed it......it didn't work. Couldn't return or exchange as I'd had it for too long. And yes, it was one of those items that cost the big bucks. -

OK, now DH "hates" this dog. I got it on Ebay a few years back. Its plastic and doing its business. I'm sorry, but I found it so hilariously funny that I just had to get it. Ray keeps hiding it, but I find it and put it right back. Hey, life at home is never dull with too retirees Ray is meticulous and me.....well, let's just say I'm creative. -
