One day last week Mimi, my 6yo, was sick and stayed home from school. Because she was home I couldn't watch The Walking Dead while running on the treadmill. I was stuck watching Dr Phil instead. I hate Dr Phil. He was talking to people with weird obsessions and one of these people had an obsession with life like baby dolls called Reborn dolls. Creepy.
Now Mimi is completely obsessed with real life dolls. She searches utube, makes wish lists and talks constantly about them. She has even made her own video and asked that I put it on utube. Yes, it's that bad.
Did I tell you that I hate Dr Phil?
Do you know anyone that has a weird obsession?
Ok, I admit that one day I walked through a shopping centre pretending a doll was a real baby but that's another story.
I used to like collecting puppets which started when I was a small girl putting on shows for patient parents and friends. The marionettes on display scared my daughter(and my closest friend agreed with her) so I packed them away.
I saw a story on that on one of those weird obsession shows on Foxtel, it is creepy, and like everyone else has said, they are freaky!
Is there anything more annoying than not being able to watch your show while on the treadmill. I swear, if it wasn't for IQ I would never go on the treadmill! And even then I have to wait until the munchkin is in bed. Its Walking Dead night for Dave and I tonight. We have even timed the cooking of our dinner so it will be ready after the munchkin is in bed and we can eat slow-cooked lamb in front of the tv like we did in our pre-kid days!
honestly where does Dr Phil and other shows like it, find these people? I once flicked across a show where a woman could not stop eating her late husband's ashes eeewwww, I had to keep flicking!!
Her video is cute, she sounds like she knows what she is talking about. I new reader.

She seems to know everything about them. I took her to a baby shop and she ran rings around the sales assistant.
DeleteGreat Video Mimi! I'm not afraid of dolls at all!

They are really creepy - and so are the grown up that collect them.

The ones that look like toddlers with long hair are the worst. Rachel x
DeleteI find these dolls really freaky! But I love the video.
ReplyDeleteThey are freaky. I thought the video was cute too :)
DeleteOh no! Freaky!
ReplyDeleteShe is certainly passionate about it.
She watches other people tube videos constantly. I do hope she grows out of it one day. Rx
DeleteThose dolls freak me out a bit too, I must admit, but I guess if they kids are happy... Nice video :)
ReplyDeleteI think they freak most people out :)

I like my routine and it's hard when sick kids get in the way. Your evening sounds lovely. Rx
DeleteOh that's kinda cute that she made a baby.
ReplyDeleteBut yes, I'm not a fan of Dr Phil either.
He is just as creepy as the baby dolls but with less hair.
