5:26 pm	Took some pictures of large stuffed toys that I have Also, recently I got the chance to take some of my large stuffed toys out and got some pictures taken of them for my photo gallery. They will be coming there sooner or later, so stay tuned. Current Mood: busy (1 Comment |Comment on this)
5:24 pm	Hole in the roof was recently fixed This is just a note, that about the hole in the roof caused by the falling tree has been repaired by a roofer. It just took some time because my step father needed to get the insurance coverage for it. Current Mood: calm (Comment on this)

1:01 am	Been dumping sticks on the path recently Recently, because of finding out that the sticks that I cut up wouldn't be able to be used in the wood burning furnace, and that I have cut up a lot of sticks, I was told that I can use many of them. So I decided to start taking the sticks and dumping them on an area of the path through the forest where they were needed. Once I am done dumping what I need in the area that I feel I needed them, they will be covered with leaves and stuff to finish off the path. BTW, the path is coming along good.

10:56 pm	My stepfather decided to cut down some trees by the house A few weeks ago, my stepfather has decided that he and my mom would be getting a wood burning furnace to help save on the cost of heating in the winter and he went to cut down some trees. This had me switching from path work to working on cutting up the branches and stuff to use as sticks to go on certain areas of my path. So far I have been doing that while my stepdad has made a cement slab by the house. As he was cutting down the trees, one of them hit the house and took down an old chimney that did some damage to the roof, but luckily it isn't the side of the attic that I was using for plushies. So they were basically safe, but we still need to get that roof fix and so far my stepdad had roofers come to look at the damage in the roof which is currently covered up even though water still leaks in when it rains. Hopefully this roof will soon get fixed since it means that I don't have much room to work up there for the time being, if I wanted to start work up there soon.

10:54 pm	Again speading more time going through my e-mail After I have gotten back from the trip to Ocean City, Maryland, I have found out that I have more e-mail to go through than I had before and have been spending time working on that. I think that I am getting caught up, but there is still more to go. Hopefully, I'll get back on track soon. Current Mood: busy (Comment on this)
10:50 pm	Had decided to redo the Toon Park fanfic as the Dark Carnival fanfic. A while ago, not sure when, but I have decided to redo the Toon Park fanfic as the Dark Carnival fanfic and was working on that for a while. Now I have begun to start it up again since I haven't been working on it for a while. I will likely make the change to the Toon Park online in my website, and will probably let you know soon when this does happen. Current Mood: busy (Comment on this)
10:39 pm	Some issues and stuff in #Toronto-Furry on FurNet Quite a few months ago, I ended up in #Toronto-Furry when I was lead into there by peromyscus and a while later, at the time, they seemed to be OPing almost everyone in the channel and I ended up with OPs there for the time being. Then sometime later, they changed that after some fiasco involving someone getting OPs back via ChanServ after getting kicked. At the time, I probably didn't care much and I e-mailed the channel owner about keeping OPs. It seemed that I was able to keep OPs for a while and then got annoyed when that was taken away from me for some reason and was just wanting to find out, and was down to half-op. For a while, I was on half-op until there was the misunderstanding from the annoyance from a community here on LJ that had me saying something that got misunderstood where I was saying that people were asking to be kicked. They thought it was a threat, but I meant that in regards to anyone doing the kicking if anyone from the community showed up there and causing a major fuss. That costed me my half-op at that time and it took several weeks before I was half-op again and even then after getting it back, I was proving myself to be helpful by voicing other people and nothing more.

9:29 pm	Took a trip to Ocean City, Maryland Back in August, my mom and I were getting ready to leave on a trip down to Ocean City, Maryland to meet with my sister and niece and nephews who are also going and then on the way down there. I ended up wanting to take down a three ring binder and lots of paper because I felt that I was going to work on a story to pass the time when there is nothing to do. The story I was thinking about writing on this time was the previous Lindsey story being rewritten a bit since I was respired by the Last Mimzy when I got it on DVD. On Saturday, the 18th, my mom and I were finally packed and left and went down to my sister's. I took a three ring binder and lots of paper, and I also got to take my stuffed Kane and Lindsey with a couple other plushies with me. When we got down to my sister's, she was loading stuff into my mom's vehicle and then we finally left a few hours later. After driving for a couple hours, we stopped at a restaurant to have lunch. Then after lunch, we continued on the way to Ocean City, Manyland. When we finally got there and unpacked into the apartment where we were going to be staying for the week, we soon ended up going up to the boardwalk either that Saturday or Sunday and at the boardwalk, I noticed that there is a Ripley's Believe It Or Not Museum there with over 500 different unbeliable items that were said to be inside. We didn't get to go in there, but that was when I have later seen a girl rodent wearing pink stuffed toy prize at the water gun game where you had to make the things with the stuffed Care Bears on them go up. The girl rodent was for some reason something I wanted to win for myself. Unfortunately, that didn't happen that day as we then went into the arcade for a while and while I was in the arcade, I saw fairy dolls up above there and wouldn't be able to get one since there were 3000 something tickets at the time. After the arcade, we left the boardwalk and went back to the apartment. Then on Monday, we got to go to the beach for a while and a collected some tiny shells, nothing larger than an inch unfortunately, which I got to bring them home with me. In the evenings is when I got time to write on my story, and on Tuesday we went to this state park so my niece and nephews could see the wild ponies and stuff there. I think it was called "Pony Island" or something. After that, is the night we went to another restaurant called "The Bonfire" to eat out for dinner. Then on Wednesday is the day that my brother in law decided to go to a golf course by himself to go golfing and it lead to an argument when he came back to the apartment with my sister over her doing nothing and he thinking he was getting the blame that she did nothing with the kids. And I ended up saying to them that at this rate, that they should pack everything up and go back to Pennsylvania to argue. They ended up laughing at my statement a bit saying that they should, but luckily that didn't happen as that is when I got to go back to the boardwalk again. When we got back to the boardwalk, we went over to the water gun game with all three kids, my sister and my brother in law, and my mom to play it. My mom ended up being the winner and since that there were seven people, it meant that she gets a large prize and thus it was the rodent girl in pink for me. After we were on the boardwalk for a while, we went back to the apartment again. The next day, Thursday, we went to this western place called Frontier Town were the kids ended up with little deputy badges, like most other kids there, and I ended up finding some on the ground that I ended up picking up and taking with me. While there, we got to see a couple of pretend gun fights, and boy those guns are loud. There is also an Indian area, were there were Cherokee people here, and got to learn what the Cherokee word is for "Hello" and it is "O C O". There was also a rodeo there that we watched a bit. They have a mean bull there called "Western Sky" and they said that the reason it is called that is because when riders were bucked off it into the air, they could have sworn they have seen the western sky. After that, we ended up leaving Fronter Town for a bit, to only come back in for something that my sister wanted. Then we left for real back to the apartment for the last night. The next day is when my mom and I were packing stuff up, including the rodent plush wearing pink, the seashells, and the depute badges I still have in my other pair of shorts. After that, it was goodbye to the kids which was a bit saddening since I had fun with them all week, and we left Ocean City, Maryland. By the time we got home and unpacked, I was already feeling a bit depressed either from Post Trip Depression or from missing the kids already. Hopefully, I will still get to see those kids even though their school was starting the next week. As for the rodent girl wearing pink plush, I got to take a picture of her at home which I have gotten online. This following picture is a picture of her and you can click on it for a larger picture. There is an entry on her that I have made into the rodent club, and this is the URL for it which you can find a bit more information on it. http://community.livejournal.com/rodentclub/8295.html Current Mood: happy (Comment on this)
9:19 pm	Started working on a rp game called Shippo Quest Sometime in early August, I decided to start working on an rp game called Shippo Quest with the RPG Maker 2000 that I have had for a while and made some progress. I will tell you a little about the game at this point, it is about the Shippo fox kitsune character from Inu Yasha. It is yet to be continued some more, but you can find out more information about it at this following URL. http://starmen.net/forum/?t=msg&th=36858 There is still more to come, and will make a mention when there is more.

9:10 pm	There are lots of raspberries around here While I was continuing to work on the path making it better and better, I was noticing there are a lot of raspberries ready for the picking. Since I was picking raspberries last year back at the place I used to live where there were some raspberries, I went to tell my mom about them and she told me to pick them all. For a few days, I was picking them and ended up picking a lot at one time that my mom decided to make raspberry muffins. After there, there weren't any more raspberries and then were done for the year. Current Mood: busy (Comment on this)

11:55 pm	Getting the Kitsune Kids made Around April and May of this year, I was wanting to get plushies of the kitsune kids made. They are characters that I have created based from Shippo, but they are not Shippo. I have done drawings of them, which they did get online and this picture is of those drawings that I have of them. You can click on this image for a larger picture. After a bit of difficulty trying to find someone to commission for these such as a long while ago big mess in an LJ Community, whose name I'm not going to mention, that almost jeopardized it. Cost me a costume maker in the progress though because of someone there being stupid to make it worser. Someone actually claimed that I do not fully pay for my commissions, which is a lie because I make sure that people who get to do a commission for something to me are paid off completely before they ship the item off to me. The kitsune kid dolls did get made by someone and these are the pictures of what the dolls look like that were taken by their maker before they were shipped to me. And at this time, I did get them and now have them. (Comment on this)
11:40 pm	Regarding the Fievel dream a while back As for the Fievel dream I have many months back, I ended up creating a new character from it some time afterward. This time, it likely does not have anything to do with a spiritual entity like Kane and Lindsey since that I have not been dreaming about this Fievel character again. Since it seemed that the dream had me at least feeling of a companion from it, I ended up creating a character called Nethan Mouse at first. The character that I created does not look like Fievel to avoid copyright problems. The character was Nethan Mouse for a while, but then I changed him to Neblin Mouse because I kept feeling that Neblin was the better name. And right now, I am yet to get the drawing of the character online, but I will be doing that soon though. Current Mood: creative (Comment on this)
2:06 am	Update On Carlie Plush Progress The Carlie Plush was something that I was having made many months back, and it has since been completed, paid for, and mailed to me. Right now, the only pics I have of it are this one that was taken by the person who made it. And I will probably have more pics of it up somewhere soon. BTW, the person who made it said that I was trustworthy since I have always make sure the rest of the amount due is paid to those that I commission before the item is sent to me.

2:43 pm	Haven't updated this is a while Hiya, I just realized that I haven't updated my Live Journal in a year, and I am going to update with some things. The reason I haven't updated in so long is because I have been getting busy from time to time, and I end up forgetting to update when I do have something to add as an update.

2:51 am	A slight stuffed toy related problem Recently, I had just gotten a few new stuffed toys and ended up with a bit of a problem. The carrier came later than usual and ended up in a bit of trouble. I have to not only get the attic completely straighten out, but get a lot of things on shelves that I need to build or something up in the attic before I can get anything else beyond the stuffed Carlie from before. If anyone has any ideas about how to do shelves in an attic, please let me know as any help is appreciated. Current Mood: irritated (Comment on this)
2:42 am	I started liking this one character from the Seiken Desentsu 3 game While I was in one of the chatrooms that I am usually in, someone mentioned about a game called Seiken Desentsu 3 or Secret of Mana 2. So I went to find it and check it out. As I was checking it out, I found that it has this one character that I ended up really liking who is called Carlie who is a cleric in the game and she is a half-elf. Soon, I ended up finding someone who can make a large stuffed toy of her and I had them make her. At this time, she is currently being made. And when I get the stuffed Carlie, I will probably have pics available of it somewhere, perhaps linked to from the webpage that I am thinking of making about her.

2:23 am	After the move.... Kane Fox and Lindsey After the move, I was for some reason feeling on the sad side for Kane Fox and Lindsey and really need to figure out something there. So I e-mailed yotewah who has not gotten back to me as usual now, but I hope that changes. Anyway, I am thinking that I will have to do something out in the woods for Kane Fox and Lindsey, but the energy in the woods seemed to be on the low side from what I have found. Don't know anything about that, any ideas? Alas, I am also still working on "Anthropia Village" and that is after I straighten out the attic issue. Now if anyone has any ideas on what I could do with Kane Fox and Lindsey, you are welcomed to post your suggestions. Current Mood: sad (Comment on this)
2:16 am	The Lost Kids Finally Come A few days before we moved, I have gotten the Lost Kid plushies and they appear to have turned out good. But then they had to be packed away since we were moving, and they got packed away. After the move, they will be out of their box and hopefully out for good. Current Mood: happy (Comment on this)

4:36 am	Something I forgot to mention that happened before the move Before we moved, I had a dream about what could be a new dream companion that looks similar to Fievel from American Tail when I dreamed about my stuffed Fievel being alive. After I had the dream, I have been thinking of Fievel with a different, yet similar hat, and different color clothing such as an orange-yellow shirt and blue green pants to avoid copyright issues. I am yet to draw this to see how it would look, but his name would become Nethan as I name that I have chosen. More information on this will be coming soon. Current Mood: creative (Comment on this)
3:46 am	Moving continued After getting the server back, it was getting close to the end of July and I started feeling that I was going to miss the old place. Doing the last couple nights, I first had to sleep on just a mattress on the floor and while I was trying to sleep, I had a wild rodent try to bite me and I knew the next night I would have to sleep somewhere else. The next night was the last night there and I was sleeping on someone else's sofa that they have moved in and I wasn't too comfortable because I was missing my private bed. When I woke up the next morning, it was that fateful Monday morning of July 31st and we have just about finished moving everything over to the new house as we just loaded the vehicles for the last time with the last of the stuff. Soon, I was in my room for the last time getting anything that might still be left and have the stuffed Kane Fox and his blanket, Lindsey the Elf Girl, and Mrs. Brisby in the back of the car. Several moments later, I was leaving my room for the last time and felt that I will be missing the place since that I have originally made a place and stuff for Kane Fox under a bush here. Soon, we left and as we were heading past the front of the house, my mom says, "Goodbye house, I love you!". This was enough to lead me to being a bit more on the sad side, but after we left, I had to be left at my sisters with the dogs and cats for a few hours while my folks went to the closings. It was an okay few hours as I managed to get through them just by being on my sister's computer and watching TV. After the few hours of being at my sisters, my folks returned to get me and the pets and we were off to the new place. When we finally got to the new place, we spent the next few days unpacking there as I took the stuffed Kane Fox, Lindsey the Elf Girl, and Mrs. Brisby up to my new room and put them on my new larger bed. The first night at the new place, I had to spend the first night on the couch because we didn't know where the other air conditioner was and it was very warm in my new room, but I was a bit more comfortable since I was sleeping on our own couch. As the first night went by slowly, morning soon came and I was continuing to help unpack. Later that day, my new room was getting set up and was finally able to sleep on my new bed with the stuffed Kane Fox and Lindsey, but was a bit sad with them since they are also my spiritual friends. As days past, I soon worked on bringing all my stuffed animal boxes and put them up in the attic since the attic door is just right off my room. At the same time, my computer was being set up, but there was some problem with the DSL. That required making a quick call to the DSL provider since the DSL was supposed to be moved over with the phone line. The DSL provider ended up sending someone out to fix the DSL problem as well as fixing the phone jack in my room since it had no guts to it and the phone cord wasn't clicking into it. Once that has all been corrected out, I continued to work on moving all my stuffed animals up into the attic. When they were all finally up in the attic, it was a matter of time before I had to work on fixing up the attic. After we were mostly settled into the new place, I was spending a bit of time with the Kane Fox and Lindsey and for some reason was feeling sad for them according to some dreams that I had. Other than that, there was the TV Cable problem where we ended up having to get Dish Network because of how much it would have cost for the cable company to run a cable line from the house to the street which is at least a tenth of a mile away, but it is still missing a channel I liked to watch allot, perhaps a bit too much, because it is not included in the "plan" that was got. But hopefully in time that will be taken care of. Anyway, a couple weeks later, I went and found myself a nice spot out in the woods on the property and made myself a sign that says, "Anthropia Village", to go there. Still, I feel that I need to do something with Kane Fox and Lindsey as I feel they need a new place ASAP for them. At the present time, I still feel sad for them. Current Mood: sad (Comment on this)
