DON'T GO ON EBAY TO RELAX!!!

Normally when Momma Cat gets home from work she is too fried to do much of anything, until after she's had a little rest.  The best way to rest is to stay away from the computer, and especially eBay!

Last week, after a hard day, Momma Cat was just looking at Madame Alexander dolls on eBay, when she spied a nice-looking doll for sale for $9.99!  Well, that's almost unheard of, unless there's something seriously wrong with the doll. But, after looking at the pictures and reading the description, it sounded like a really good deal, and the doll was going off sale in 4 minutes!  So Momma Cat bid, and she won!  

The thing is,Momma Cat didn't really need or want a new doll at that particular moment in time. So, Momma Cat can't stress this too much, you shouldn't go on eBay when you're in a weakened condition!  Especially if you've got a doll addiction, which Momma Cat does.  Also, especially if you're tired, hungry, or have little money in your bank account!

Anyway, Momma Cat's little temptation arrived in the mail today.

The little sweetie is in pretty good shape, although she could use a little cleaning!  She has gorgeous curly hair and brown eyes.  I think her clothes are rather unattractive.  But, that's a personal opinion, and she will be getting a new outfit from me very soon!

The person who sold and shipped her to me obviously doesn't have much respect for dolls from what I can see.  She came in a flat rate box, she was bent in half at the waist, and was wrapped in a garbage bag!  OMG!!!
  
Although I am happy with my purchase, I know that eBay is a dangerous place to browse.  So keep that in mind the next time you want to relax!!!  Try reading a book instead.  It's safer!

  2. Maureen,

    I haven't decided what her personality is yet, but when I do then she'll get a new outfit!

  3. She's very cute! But I think you're right about avoiding Ebay to relax. Retail therapy can often create stress!

      For sure! You have to think how you're going to make it to your next paycheck after you've spent all your money on stuff!!!
