More experience to add. While at the Crossroads Mall in St. Cloud, I needed to use the restroom, and walked past the cleaning lady to go into the women's restroom. When I came out of the stall, she was in the women's restroom. Nothing, as if I was a normal female.
Not like the time a couple years ago, I was in the men's restroom and the janitor told me to go use the non-gender restroom.

Later I went to Victoria's Secret and picked out 2 bras. The cashier informed me about the buy 2, get 2 free, and helped me pick out the free bras. Actually have someone help pick out my bras.

I have been watching videos about RFK jr. Anyway junior wanted to make a database and use information from your smartwatch to see if you were getting the proper exercise.
A comment was made about someone hiring somebody to to take the smartwatch and do the walks for you. I begin wondering about these scooters going around the block or to the grocery store. I realized the smart watch thinks they are walking.

On the other hand, the smart watch doesn't know how many miles I put on the stationary bike. Technically zero, but pedal the equivalent of x amount of miles.

There was a question about crochet. The last time I used a crochet hook was to restring a GI Joe doll. I do have a couple of the stuffed creatures here waiting to be done. My 7th grade teacher took my crochet hook and I never got it back. It was a male teacher in a Lutheran school. One of the older ones that probably had the attitude boys don't sew.

Another thing has been about loosing weight. I'm not even in that competition, sitting here at 164 pounds.
I have a papers from my medical clinic from way back in 2005. It shows my weight at 164 pounds, but it was at the clinic, so I was fully dressed. So I might have been actually 160 pounds.
At the moment I have a goal weight of 155 pounds. I might be doing things wrong as I weigh myself every morning before my shower. I have a food diary that I record all the nutrition information of what I eat. My food journals keep track of calories and protein for the food I eat during the day.

It gets depressing occasionally checking the news. I see trump wants a parade. Lets give him a parade, they can all carry rainbow flags.
I watched a video about an African county deporting U. S. citizens that do not have visas. Its about time they stood up.

I finally got to the Hobby Lobby in St. Cloud. It surprised me that they had the accessories for the 1/12th scale doll house. Doors and windows, electric lights, hinges. I had not thought about restoring my doll house, but I will keep that in mind.

I did find the polystyrene plastic that I was looking for. I decided not to repair the hitch on the jeep trailer to look like the original. I want it to look like the full size trailer.

I guess "toys r us" is now in the Macy's store in the Crossroads Mall. I will have to check it next time.

Apparently, I walked by this stuff in the local store without seeing it. About fifteen miles to the local store. The polystyrene tubes, rods, and sheets are in the display behind the model train tracks. To the left are the parachutes for the model rockets. I was considering how it might look with a jeep that was parachuted. I wonder how difficult it would be to sew a parachute canopy out of a white sheet for my GI Joes. The dollhouse stuff is also there, including the electric lights and doll furniture.

About the "Toys R Us", living in a rural area meant not much for toys in the local stores. Especially the articulated non Barbie female dolls. 40 years ago I would drive the 40 miles to the Crossroads Mall in St. Cloud. Back then Sears was where J. C. Penny is now. The escalator is still there, upstairs was where the Atari 2600 video games were. "Toys R Us" was about a block from the crossroads. The first time I went and entered the store, it was a bit overwhelming to see all the toys.

The hobby shop was a bit down the road. I don't remember exactly were it was, but it was close to where the Hobby Lobby is now. It had been something like 25 years, and the streets have all changed.

The 1/12th scale dollhouse is now at the house. I don't know where the furniture got put. The 6 inch doll is about half the size of Barbie. So they are known as the Half-lings.

While I was at my storage unit, I grabbed my Mego Star Trek playset. Those dolls are 7 and 1/2 inches tall. Everything seems to be there. I am considering measuring the accessories, do a bit of mathematics and make accessories for the 12 inch Star Trek, but I might be better off getting the measurements for official video set from my manuals and build from there.
