The ISH May Hit The Fan Soon

Well this is Rod's ex-wife, Melanie.  She is on her way to pick up Nicole from the sleepover.  But first she is meeting with Rod.  She has no idea what he wants to talk about.  She imagines it is something regarding Nicole. 

Side Note:  This is a bad sistah.  If you are wondering why I ever split her and Rod up, well I have a confession.  At the time the split happened, I didn't actually have a real wife/ex-wife for Rod.  This lady was added to my collection shortly thereafter.  She seemed like the perfect mother for Nicole, so she got the job.

She is sporting a pair of pants I made last weekend that I didn't show you.  It is paired with a sock sweater I made some months ago.

A little tip for getting those sweaters on without getting them caught in those fingers is to wrap the hands with a little saran wrap.  Works like a charm.  I didn't do it that way the first two times, so I got a little snag here and there.

"Get it, girl! Go get your man!"

I am going to give her the benefit of the doubt.  She may actually be happy for Rod.

    Love Melanie's outfit. Very fashionable. Refresh my mind, what does Melanie do for a living?

    Frannie - Melanie is a high powered lawyer. She was trying to make partner and let her marriage go in the process.

    That outfit is fabulous!! Melanie, looks like money. You are good with the suspense...I can't WAIT to see Rod and Melanie's meeting. No matter how it turns out, the anticipation is killin' me. LOL.

    Like always, I'll stay tuned.

    Tracy - She wanted to look extra good to meet Rod. The suspense is killing me, too. I never know what is going to happen until it does. I wait until they get together to see what look they give each other. I have learned not to try to plan too much in advance because it rarely happens the way I think it will.

    Loretta - Hello! Thanks. It should be a very interesting meeting. We women are such complex creatures, you just never know what we will do. I'm stopping by to see if you cooked Sunday dinner. I am starved!

    william - That is a Janay head. She is the same mold as Antoinette. That was one of Jason Wu's first sculpts that used to sell for $7 in Walmart. He has come a long way. I bought this head from another collector, but I have about 6 other Janay dolls. Two of them are Antoinette's sisters. They will make an appearance soon.

    In the begining, even for hearted women, seeing someone else move on if you haven't moved on is hard. Good hearted women admit it to themselves and then feel happy for the other person. Not so good hearted women throw a fit! Let's see where Melanie falls.

    I have to make a few sock sweaters! She looks darling.

    Ms. Leo - I think you are right, but sometimes it takes those good hearted womem awhile to get to the "I'm happy for you". But I think when there are children involved it gets a lot more complicated. Moms tend to get a little jealous when their child potentially likes another woman. My mom would get jealous of other women in my life that gravitated to me (that had nothing to do with my dad). Teachers, people I babysat for, etc.

    Ok I know I am going to be the oddball. But, as much as I like Danielle (I think she is the sweetest persdoll in Vanland)I kind of wish that Melanie has learned her lesson and she and Rod will reunite and live happily ever after in love the way they probably started.

    I am kind of a hopeless romantic who believes in love lasting forever. Shruggin shoulders-What can I say?:-)

    Oh, and boy does she look sharp!

    Ok, ok,I know I am probably going to be the oddball. But, as much as I love Danielle (I think she is the sweetest persdoll in Vanland, I am kind of hoping that Melanie has learned her lesson and realize what she is about to lose forever. Then Rod and Melanie would get back together in love the way they probably started out.
    What can I say I am a hopeless romantic who likes to see love that lasts forever. :-)

    Oh, and boy does she look sharp!
    May the best woman win.

    Anonymous - I like the sound of Vanland. I completely understand how you feel. Rod was really hoping that would happen, too. That is why he didn't date anyone seriously for almost a year.

    All I have to say is...I love her outfit! You should definitely make some purses too!! :)

    Dolly World - Thanks! I can't start making purses. I only make things that start with "f"; furniture, food, and fashions. That helps to keep me focused. LOL.

    Melanie looks pretty tough... like she'll kick butt and ask questions later. Maybe that's why she's an ex.

    Hope she fools us.

    Love her outfit!

    DBG - She does have a sort of Adele "take no prisoners" kind of look about her. Maybe it's all those years of being a lawyer. I don't think she's a mean woman. She's just a champagne and caviar woman.

    Thanks for the tip about wrapping the hands in saran wrap to put on sweaters. I'm prototyping some sweater designs for future tutorials and have had trouble with the models' hands snagging the fabric.

    Wow, she does look sharp :) Hope the meeting goes smoothly, since I'm convinced she won't be happy.

    Dollies Series - Thanks. We will know soon enough. I am shooting that meeting this week.

    Ms. Leo - You would think she would have done that, but she's been a little busy.
