Hello world!

I stopped dreaming I would be able to have an Ebony Blythe doll. Her price soared and her availability dwindled. I received her as a lovely gift from a very nice person.

My new girl has been with me since last year! Except I have been hemming and hawing over what to name her. I refuse to call her Eboneeza! Lorenza was one of my top choices, after the beautiful violinist Lorenza Ponce. Then my sister suggested Catalina which I find pretty too. Now Ebony strikes me as needing a J name like one of my favorites for a girl, Jordan. Of course, one of my darling kitties is named Jordan Belinda so there is bound to be confusion! The other reason Ebony has not had her debut until now? She is a very hard girl for me to photograph!

I had a message on Ravelry last week, the content of which I have been hard put to come to terms with.

“I am writing to let you know that your Ravelry friend Jenn, finding_her, passed away on Friday after some unexpected complications from Cystic Fibrosis.”

I cannot claim to have been close with Jenn. Yet I really did care about her. That was easy. She was a loving and lovely young woman who faced difficulties with remarkable grace.
