Hi, Everyone. I just joined today. I've been a doll collector since 1985 and have over 1,000 dolls in my collection. My favorites are the lady dolls; unfortunately, not a lot of companies make them anymore.

I also have a shop in Seffner, Florida and sell dolls, bears, and other collectibles. I'm here primarily to talk about dolls and to pass on info on the new dolls that are coming out, maybe even give you a scoop or two.

I'm 53 years old, recently widowed. I have 2 dogs: Daisy, a 14 year old mixed terrier and Waldo, a 12 year old Toy Fox Terrier, who likes to snuggle. I also have 4 birds: 1 parakeet and 3 cockatiels.
