Chris,Rob, and the Kids' Winter plans


Chris: I almost have all the decorations down. I suppose this one tree won't matter if we make sure the lights are off.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

I really like this tree...here...should I leave it up all YEAR long?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Skipper: I don't think so Mom. It would look icky with Easter Bunnies on it.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Grumpy: I just want them to leave so I can demolish that cake thing on the table.


barbieoldnewgreenredo

Scooter: Shamrocks wouldn 't look so bad. Will the kitties be okay when we are gone?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Puss: Hoomans gone....what?????

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Rob: They'll be fine. Auntie Barbie is right next door and they will love having the whole place to themselves. Is everyone packed?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

We need to leave for the airport by 9:00 PM for the red-eye to LA.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

(The stockings are gone---but the fire is cozy.)

barbieoldnewgreenredo

The girls in unison: We're packed and everything is a go-!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Scooter: I brought two swimsuits will it be warm in California?

Rob: Grandma and Garmpa have a heated pool, so yes...it will be warm enough.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

(Decorations still Up, but wash is done)

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: I'm packed, I'm hoping to buy some new clothes in LA. People dress so dreary here.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Rob: Your closet is always full...!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: We've been here almost six years, and I haven't adjusted yet...can't wait for sun!


barbieoldnewgreenredo

Rob: How about one more Christmas photo here:

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Skipper: But, what about the kitties????

barbieoldnewgreenredo

It's really hard to get them to all be still.

Vickie and Joe take the evening off to decorate their new Christmas Tree.


barbieoldnewgreenredo

But, first...

barbieoldnewgreenredo

But first they need sustenance. Well, Cat does!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Joe: Hey, Cat...cease and desist...it's not like you are starving! You've lost your slim figure!



barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: She just want's attention, like we all do.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Joe: Well, here's to you, who deserves all my attention.

Vickie: We have to get our tree up---if you keep talking like that, we won't? 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: I'll start by adjusting all the branches. How does it look now.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Joe: A little to your left, now do the lower branches...(hee-hee)

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: You stinker, finish up Lieutenant and report for duty.

vvvv

Joe: Ready, Ma'm, where should I start! 

Vickie: No kisses until we are done.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

An hour later....

Joe: I'll just hold on to you here, and then you can reach that last ornament! You sure smell good.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: You are such a bad boy---Santa will leave coal in your stocking!!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Joe: This is the best part, now we need to test the rest of the lights with this remote.


barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: Awwww, it's so pretty. I'm glad we went with the white tree.

Joe: I'm glad you are with me.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Joe: Cat!....Stay out of the tree.

Vickie: Owwww, she's getting heavy. No more treats.

barbieoldnewgreenredo


CAT: (No more treats......Meeeoooowwwww, no more Christmas ornaments....purrrr.....)

Joe: Do you think she likes the tree?

Social Distancing in the HFIM HOUSE.

Ad-Free Blog
(Special Note: I am in no way making light of our current health situations. What is out there, is a matter of life and death. I try to portray my doll's lives as realistically as I can, and still be entertaining for adults and still suitable for younger viewers. I try to address problems with solutions. Not everyone is perfect, even in a doll world. I took all these photos, before masks were suggested, but they are inside!)


Normally there are people everywhere in the HFIM house...

Grumpy Cat...says that's fine with him. "Too many people, and my tail gets stepped on. Long as someone remembers to feed us."

barbieoldnewgreenredo


(Cat grumble...)

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Now, Kitty thinks humans, like Chelsea, small humans are great. Prrrrrrr!
Chelsea: I'm here!

Third floor-Upstairs: Nemo, Patrick and Jamie share the top floor. Two beds and a pull-out couch makes for still crowded conditions. 


Rory(recently Belle in "Beauty and the Beast", in a touring show) 

Rory:Hi, I'm back! My aunt sent me home with lots of home-canned vegetables, fresh veggies, fruit, and one of her prized apple pies. Hey, Nemo....I missed you!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Nemo: Missed you more, Kiddo! 

Jamie: Sorry about the kitchen, Rory, I haven't had time to keep up. The bakery opened and we have been swamped. ANY food sure is welcome, it's lean pickings around here. We've had a lot of carry-out and delivery, but the budget was out of control.

 I gotta go to the bakery now, it's all yours.


barbieoldnewgreenredo

Midge: Hi, Rory. We sure missed you! I was going to tackle the sink next.


barbieoldnewgreenredo

Rory: Well, let me take my stuff upstairs and then we can figure out what's for supper. How many people do we have now?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: Hi, Rory. Ryan and I are working from home and here all the time now.

Kevin: I'm here for meals, Ken is at the hospital and doesn't come here at all now. Danny's stuck in Vancouver while working on a show.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ryan: The printer isn't working downstairs, so I'm at this desk. The city never sleeps, pandemic or not.

barbieoldnewgreenredo


Kevin: Sure and you playing "Call to Duty," is part of your job?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ryan: Well, it's not like a gazillion permits are being submitted right now. I just have to be available for the job. You know it's amazing how much you can get done without the watercooler and people interrupting you at work.

Stuart and Aidan watch TV in the living room. 
The HFIM Covid19 rules are: keep your distance, clean up after yourself, and WASH YOUR HANDS. They sleep downstairs, in their mini-apartment. 

Stuart: Aidan and I, we'll eat whatever anyone cooks!!! What time is dinner?

Midge: Belle is upstairs working and doing wash. Mulan's gone-house sitting for some friends, who are trapped in Hong Kong.  Sindy and Barbie are at the bakery. They will be home for dinner. I think that is all, unless I forgot someone. 



barbieoldnewgreenredo

It's Belles turn to do the wash, and while she's working with her young students online. It takes extra time to have lesson plans that are visual and clear, for all levels of her students and their parents.  Exasperating, at the least, for everyone.

The HFIM house has plenty of wipes to clean the bathroom, laundry room with, and lots of bleach and cleaning products.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Keeping up with HFIM wash is always a lot of work.
***

Midge (in the kitchen): Peder and Ian are working construction downstate, so, I think we are only fourteen and of course no guests. Can you work with that? But, there is only one serious problem in our HFIM house, of course, it's....


barbieoldnewgreenredo

Belle: We are getting low on toilet paper, AGAIN!

What is your doll family doing to conserve resources or keep sane while on lock-down?
