Good things have been happening the past 24 hours. First of all this box arrived. My new doll had arrived. Introducing Asa Willow Park, my second Iplehouse JID doll. She has such a pretty face. She came with pale blue eyes. I put this dress on her that I knit a few weeks ago. This pink looks pretty good on her. She has what is called Normal colored skin. I like how pale she is.

So I hoped maybe someone missing a black calf would stop by sometime during the day. The calf hung around all day long, passing by the living room window every 2 hours or so.
