                                                                   Ad-Free Blog

Barbie and Chelsea put the finishing touches on the party buffet table for the SATC Party.

Barbie: Wow, you did a great job helping me with all the food Chelsea. 

Chelsea: What is SATC?

Barbie: Well it's series about girlfriends and some movies, too. Really celebrating friendship.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chelsea: Okay. Well, I liked helping. Maybe I can get some extra-credit in my Home Economics class! I really liked making the sushi rolls, that was FUN. 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Barbie: There's the doorbell. It's Melanie and Melissa.
Chelsea: Hi, Melissa! 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Melissa: Wow, Chelsea, you weren't kidding when you said there would be lots of food. Thanks for having me Ms.Roberts.

Melanie: Thanks so much for inviting us. My hubby is off at a game party and this was such a good idea to have a real 'Girls Only' option.

Barbie: Why don't you two go up to Chelsea's room before everyone gets here.

Chelsea: I already took snacks up there.

(Next to arrive is Trish)

Trish: Thanks so much for the invite, I can't stay long, this week is SOOOOO busy at the shop...with Valentines Day. I won't be able to stay for the movie. 

Barbie: I totally understand, stay as long as you want, and you look so adorable. 

Trish: Well, just don't look at my hands, I REALLY need a manicure, I must have a thousand rose thorn cuts.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Barbie: I know what you mean--I haven't seen my legs since Christmas.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Doorbell: Brrrinnnnng!

Trish:(Wow, what a spread, dumplings, I love stuffed  dumplings.)

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Barbie: Lots of choices! Help yourself!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Finger food and tasty too!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Melanie: Hi, I'm Melanie. Barbie and I are in the same exercise class and my daughter is friends with Chelsea.

barbieooldnewgreenredo

Trish: I'm Trish I own the flower shop down the street. Wow, those drinks look awesome. 

Melanie: Sure do, and extra bottles on the side if you want to add some. Wasn't this a great idea, I loved all the movies and the tv series?

Denise (R): How have you been, Richelle. You are looking very 'Carrie' for this party. This is certainly better than enduring another football game. 

Richelle: *(Chuckle) This outfit was an excuse to unearth some 90's clothing. I was just home to Wisconsin and didn't have the heart to get rid of this. And you must have be channeling, 'Samantha'. That's an awesome jacket.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Denise (L): You really have to 'DO' my office, Richelle, if you have time. It bores me to tears to work in there---it's so bland. 

Richelle: I would be glad to assist you in any way, say later in the week?

(Upstairs Ken and Joe are watching the game, and the girls are ...trying to eavesdrop.)

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Melissa: It's been ages since I've had pizza and a shake. Foofie really likes me.

Chelsea: Well, she just wants to lick your face! There sure is a lot of noise coming from downstairs for a 'ladies party'.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: Sorry, Zoe and I are late. We didn't miss any gossip, I hope?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: I'm a very old---Carrie---maybe, but this was such a great idea. You all look sooooo GORGEOUS!
barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: Is it getting warm in here?
Group: (Female wolf whistles....Take it all off!)

barbieoldnewgreeenredo

Midge: Let's get a photo of all these SHOES.

barbieoldnewgreenredo


barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: Oooh, now what's in those cocktails?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Barbie: Green is a lime concoction of pineapple, lime and some sherbet. The pink is strawberry-lemon sherbet fizz. You can add more of your own poison.

Denise: Divine, make your own POISON, love that!

barbieoldnewgreenredo


Barbie: Okay, everyone, let's go around and name our favorite person or thing in 'S and the City' and Zoe, you start.

Zoe: Maybe Charlotte, I'm pretty shy like her.

Melanie: I definitely loved all the shoes...they are a character aren't they?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: Why are you smiling, Midge?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Midge: Well, the clothes and shoes of course, but, ahhhh, but, um, oh, my favorite...

barbieoldnewgreenredo

(blushing)my f
avorite has to.... 
be 

DRUM-ROL-L-L-L-L=L PLEASE!


(SCREECHING RAUCOUS LAUGHTER)

Trish: If ONLY, I'll second that!

Barbie: Here's to Mr. Big and girl-friendship and learning to love ourselves, just the way we are! CHEERS EVERYONE and bottoms UP. 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle:  And for supporting each other, and this great party!

Meanwhile: Upstairs in the den the game is still going on, forever in fact.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ken: This is a great game----did you hear that coming from downstairs? 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Joe: I don't know what they are doing, but some sort of cheering, whoa...a First Down!  

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chelsea: Wow, that's a lot of noise coming from downstairs. And my sister says we are loud.

Melissa: What is 'S and the City' anyway?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chelsea: I don't know, but I sure want to find out 
about 
MR.BIG?

Melissa: Maybe he just has a BIG personality?

What's New for the New Year 2024 with Ryan and Richelle.

Ad-Free Blog

We are at Ryan and Richelle's new digs, and they have an interesting discussion with Midge and Alan.

Midge: Wow, I sure love all the space you have here. How did you ever find this place?
barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ryan: It was my cousins, and he sold it to me to avoid re-doing stuff and to save on the realtor fees. It was a family exchange sort of. We Saved a lot of money, and it's still in the neighborhood we are familiar with. It really is big for us right now. Actually that is why we asked you here.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Alan: Yes, we have been looking for something affordable for quite awhile. What do you have in mind?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: Well, we thought you might want to rent part of the house and share this floor with us.
barbieoldnewgreenredo

Midge: I've been living out of a suitcase at my aunts, and Alan's lease is up in the New Year and it's increased with extra HOA fees and astronomical if he stays.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ryan: Well, if you might be interested, we can take a quick tour! Let's start upstairs.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: We haven't done a thing in the house yet, my taste isn't pink, but we may have to just deal with it, here in our bedroom.  I want to make a work station up here, and change the dresser out for a real closet.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

We do have Ryan's mom's pooch. Mortimer is really old, and sleeps a lot. He only appears at meal time, so be forewarned.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: The upstairs bathroom is huge. You would be able to use the tub, but there is a full size bathroom with shower downstairs level.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: The main floor has this living/dining room and table for four for meals.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

I'm moving this to create a work space upstairs, mostly because the light isn't great and it would be in the line of traffic.
barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: The kitchen is really quite complete. 

Midge: Great appliances and I love all the shelves.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: The fridge is huge, and there is plenty of storage. We could figure out some sort of system for cooking. Carry-out is so expensive now, and of course we are trying to cut expenses since we have this house.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

This is the current island, which I may move to the center for traffic flow. We will see how it works.

Midge: The stairway goes down to the rooms we would have?

Ryan: Yes, and the garage is down on this level.
barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: Here's the garage.
barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ryan: Yep...and we have it already full of 'stuff'. Let's check out the main room.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

The basement was basically a man-cave. We brought our bed from the HFIM house...and it has great storage drawers underneath. There is plenty of room under the stairway for a closet. The wall bookcase is really anchored so it have to work around it. I had a desk under there, but the bed had to go somewhere.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ryan: Here's a couple of old snapshots from before we bought the house. 

barbieolldnewgreenredo

It's really a flexible space!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Here's the space for storage under the stairs.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

But, there's this great closet by the bathroom.

Midge: Anything is better than living out of a suitcase.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ryan: The bathroom is great and the shower is the best, that's one thing we are going to add upstairs. 

Alan: Looks great and plenty of light down here too.

Richelle: I think it might be a good idea for you both. So what do you two think? Would you like to make this a duplex for awhile, and as long as you want?

Alan: I sure do, Midge what do you think?

Midge: As long as I can take a bath once in awhile, even though showers are fine. And, I love to cook, so I'd be happy to take that on.

The DIY dollhouse circa 2015

Ryan: Let's work out a simple contract and you can both move in, whenever! 

SO
Welcome HOME to Ryan, Richelle, Midge and Alan's place.

 Wonder what they will do 
in the New Year?
