G'day everyone,....

AlexKnight wrote:I've never been able to lift a doll out of the crate while it's lying down, so I stand it upright and then lift the doll out using the same technique I use to carry her, one hand under her butt and the other arm around her waist, letting her lean against me (to get the center of gravity as close to me as possible, and prevent the articulated spine from bending backwards)

Also, if you carry her more, you'll get stronger.
+100!

Despite your bad back there are ways for you to move her, its just a matter of technique.
Did she come with her eyebolt in the back of her neck so she can be hung for storage/dressing?
If not you can get one from a hardware store (or Abyss), also you can make a mount for her to hang from so no problem is insurmountable.

Good to hear you will give it some time,...
Years from now this start will make a great story for you to share with other new members,....
