Yep. Our turn now. And our Adventures.

[Zlamvam]

So, after a good time and amount of more time I been here for some time and commenting and writing, I concluded it may was about bloody time it being my turn or our turn if you may say so, to take the step instead of do want to, but instead of taking the plunge, I decide to hold back.
So, I decide to take here the Jump and go for it and, go ahead and enjoy. Because I am tired of holding back.
Because now I´m going in with not only one foot but both.
I won´t be posting here each and every day since I do not have the habit of taking pictures very often, but no less I will be posting from time to time. This New Year I also decided to go for something not all Members on this Forum do.
So I have decided to go for doing so too, or at least I want to actually give it a go and a try, instead of NOT doing it. It may be a tough one, but rather try then not try doing it. It should not be an impossibility to do it. Look at some certain other users here. Give them some Xtra Kudos. They deserve it big time.
I will also try go for some nice Events here in the future. It´s going to be tough, but I would rather like trying to do it then not doing it at all, if I do get a chance.

Imagine if we could have a trip to a fancy Hotel and spend a Weekend. Must admit that is one very nice thought. Would be a nice experience also in many ways I like to think.
Hey, imagine when and if I need to go to the Hospital for whatever reason. Would I dare to actually bring her along?!
Could it be one day I could take her along and spend an Hour or two in a Park?
Could it be one day I would take her along to a place where there are some kind of known Monument?

And if/when actually daring to do such things, then surely it would be stupid of me not to bring along Cameras for Videos and Pictures.
Well, one thing for sure. Many of these things involves Transport. And since I do not own and drive a car 1st thing comes to mind to use is to grab a Taxi.
Anyway, here we are and let us see what this year is going to bring of all kind of things. Because when it comes to certain things, I must quite simply say, I´m tired. And we do only have one single life.
And am I really going to end up my life without at least having tried some of the things I would like try to do? No, that is I think, something one is just going to regret.

So let me see what I can get done. If I can get one single thing done, that just may lead to some other thing and on top of that, that another one. And then, for all I know, all those things may lead to other nice positive things I would never ever expect. Who knows?!

Well, here she is. Maiko is her name. And she is 3 yrs old. Well, almost and a half now.
Let us genuine Enthusiasts enjoy. We´re going for things we have not done before. Wish us best of luck.

Looks like a good start to me. Maiko is very cute! Looking forward to the future. Enjoy!

So, tonight it was a small Present time. It was handing over and time for opening something called Plushy Pets.
It is this typical open and do not know what you are gettting little cute Plushy Animal inside.
We also discovered that there were 12 different ones in the Series to collect and one #13 very Rare one to find.. But no, we will not try to Collect all 12 or even find the #13 one.
I bought her one and it was about €8.50.

Other then that we been on the side of making Plans, or sketch of making plans. Many plans but so far nothing else then that.
To make actual plans work, we will be in need of a few things. And those are:
A new Photo Camera. A new Video Camera. A Chair/Wagon, anything with wheels anyway. A good, proper Set plan. And of course Money so the plan is possible to make real. And I know for real that some time in the not too distant future, things will happen. Something I do not want to happen, is unforeseen things. Am also wondering if I should make meself a YT Account.

Here is the Opening. Enjoy:

Hello Zlamvam,

picture pagees of you and Maiko are so nice idea. I like it very much!
It is so good you wish to do something new in this year and do not holding back^^
Doing first step is so important I think. It can only bring nice feeling. And you did so good.
Your pictures are nice and Maiko doll is most cute. I think doll pagees members will like it!
Also do not make comparing to others, most pleasant is to be you.
Maybe also try make small plan first, like take picture of Maiko going to sleep, wearing pyjama or brushing hairs^^
It was favourite pictures of me and SooYoung to do too.

I wish you have much fun with Maiko and do not be afraid to be you on doll pagees.

Maiko is so cute<3
I can only agree with Taeyeon!
Taking the first step is difficult, but only as long as you want to compare yourself to others or compete.
But nobody, really nobody, can compare or compete with anyone here, because every doll relationship is unique!
You have made the right step and I am glad about it because your photos obviously show how much you love Maiko and I am grateful that you are sharing this experience with us.
2025 is your year!

It sounds like you’re interested in taking Maiko out and about outside to take photos? This would be fun, but the logistics are hard, moving her around, and then the reaction from the public could be unpredictable. So you’d want to be ready for that. It’s a pretty big step!

In the meantime, maybe continue taking pictures like the ones above. She’s lucky she got a unicorn! My dolls would like a unicorn.

Taking everyday life photos around the house is an easier start and you don’t need a special camera or wagon

[Arrdeee]

Maiko is indeed a little cutie! It's always nice to be able to see people's expression in their shoots they do with their gals and I'm certainly looking forward to getting to see more of her

[Zlamvam]

We were sitting and suddenly she came up with this idea, and I thought - Why not?!
So, since it is soon to be both close to Spring and even closer to Easter, we thought why not sit up this one. I thought it was a nice little idea for an update.
Enjoy.

Me and Maiko watched this together here yesterday, and yes, I know it is not a Movie about anything like Robots, AI, Dolls or anything, but to just watch this one, it is just pure Brutal & Beautiful Cinema Magic Performance of real true Art, that is rarely if ever seen of today..
You have true real magic in every scene when it comes to directing, acting performance, the Music, just everything. Such an old Movie, yet it is still gonna blow you away with true feelings & emotions. We rate it 10/10.
If you have not watched it, you owe it to yourself to do so.
If you have watched it, you owe it to yourself to watch it again.
Enjoy.

Hello,

I really enjoyed your post, capturing those lovely daily moments between you and Maiko.

She looks sweet and adorable, clearly enjoying the time spent with you. The coral fleece outfit suits her perfectly, and that butterfly on her head makes her look especially cute, haha.

It's wonderful how she accompanies you even while you're watching movies, sharing similar experiences with you.

I believe your posts can offer people a fresh perspective on understanding their relationships with dolls.

Looking forward to seeing more delightful moments of you and Maiko.

Warm regards,
Coeros

So, time again for some Updates. And Happy Easter to you Doll Enthusiasts.
Was meant to post something Yesterday on the Easter day (19th) itself, but missed out, so will take some of it back today though. But will mention we made Dinner consisting of Potatoes, Wedgies and Sauce with Lambmeat and drinking a bit of Alcohol too, and it was a mighty meal and took it´s toll, so fell asleep a bit too early in the evening. And before that from early Morning, I had to go out for errand and do quite a few things.
And well, that means one get tired.
What I am happy to have done yesterday though was that I made the final changes to cleaning and Oiling/Powdering of Maiko, so she is all shined up and fresh for Easter. And that makes me happy. We have left to do some repairs some small gluing of rifts and cuts, but the most important things have been done. Updates on Repairs will be done within the next couple weeks.

I bought New Nails that contains both of stick-on Nails and Nails with own Glue included. Will need to look them over and see what ones we will be using. Bought them in a Store called Normal, and they are having a very big inventory of all kinds of things. And they are having quite low prices too, and that is a good thing in these times. It is a Chain I believe they are having in multiple European Countries.
And I also bought this Travel Bag, and Maiko is very happy for this, now we can have all kind of important stuff in it on our travels, and have it all in one place so we know where it all is.
Anyway, we will watch a Movie now. Don´t knpw which one though. We have to find and select one. We will stream it.
Will have a small Update tomorrow, so sure title will be mentioned.
Other things I like to mention now, is the replies and feedback. Thank you for that. And in just 2 Weeks time it is Party of a certain genre.

[Zlamvam]

Not really much of an Update tonight, but a small one nonetheless.
It has been an easy and calm day for both of us.
Last night we watched the movie called Talk to Me. A movie in the Horror Genre that is an interesting twist to the genre and does have it´s surprising twists. Not saying it is the best Movie I watched. but if you do like Horror, I would say it is surprisingly good. And worth Watching.
And if I heard correct, this Movie was made of people that is having Movie making as a pure Hobby, and does not really have a Professional Background as a Movie Maker. Just as a Side Hobby Project. Anyway, that is what I heard, and that is really all I know.

When it comes to our magic Egg after almost 20+Hrs, this is what the result is so far.

This is it for tonight, am back tomorrow for another Update and Announcement I guess one can call it.

[Alessandra4Ever]

Nice that you still had some fun, and we wish you a wonderful May 1st weekend with your doll family at home. Lots of love, Alessandra.

[Zlamvam]

So, today... An Update. Not the Update I wished for, but still an Update.
To make a long one to a short one... Circumstances needed me to go to an appointment to a Heart Specialist who after about an hour of checks recommended me to go to Hospital and get a Check-up.
So after doe there, it was home to get some needed stuff and just get taking the bus to Hospital.
And I was and is not having a Wheelchair for Maiko yet, so she was bound to be left home alone for the next days. When I was there I noticed something very fast.
It may be odd, strange and very weird even, but I noticed how seriously deep I was missing Maiko. I know, she is a doll, but still...
If I had a Wheelchair and some good amount of money, I would instead have taken a Taxi myself and brought Maiko with me. Yes, even though most likely some of the docs and nurses would have said hell, no, that doll would not be entered in here. I guess some of them would even have said - that thing. And if they said I would not even be allowed to go in here without her, I would quickly just turn and go back home.
Anyway, I was on Hospital for the weekend. This could take some more days then anticipated. I talked with some of the Docs in the Hospital, and they figured out that it was ok, for me to go home if I so wished to. They did wished for me to stay put.
But since it was not an absolute recommendation I chose to go home, so here I am, writing in this Forum of Dolls today.
If my situation was utterly critical I would have stayed of course on the Hospital rest of week.
Anyway, got some new Meds to take next to everything I already have, and then within the next 2mths I will get a call or a letter from the Hospital to come back and be having a full investigation, where they go through the Veins in ones body and check out if there is needed a what they call a Stent, needs to be inserted or not.
I don´t like it, but my guess is it will be needed. Since I have had small to big pains running through left side body and arm for about an mth already. I´ll see how it goes.

So all my original weekend plans just vanished with just a snap of the fingers.
My original plan for the Weekend was having Pizza, Cake, May the 4th Celebration, Star Wars Movies and everything and even a few other things.
But ok, luckily I can always take it back and do it another day. And I will do so within this very mth too. So yeah, that was what originally should have been here this day, not about weekend in Hospital.
I know, not much of an Update, but still an Update I wanted to share.
Have a nice day though, now I need to go make meself an appointment with a Dentist because now I am having tooth ache on top of the other pains. If it is not the one thing it is the other thing on top of the one thing.
Have a nice day.
Until next Update.
Also thank you for the comments.

Take care of yourself. Maiko relies on you.
