13 Thursday

Ooooh, 13 Thursday on a Thursday! I am getting so good at this. :-)

Today's topic is fear. Yes, Ash just blogged about this. However, I found something in the yard today that made this topic fresh on my mind.


13 Things I am Afraid Of:


  1. Ob-Gyn visits

  2. Bugs (technically, I am afraid of all the little legs)

  3. Losing a family member or a close friend

  4. Confrontation

  5. Waxing of any kind

  6. Disability

  7. Debt

  8. Not being the parent I need to be

  9. Bird doo-doo on my van (right after it's washed, happens every time)

  10. Letting people down

  11. Sharks (maybe a little irrational in land-locked AR)

  12. Wearing shorts

  13. Dolls. Dolls freak me out. Especially dirty dolls. And today I found this - Yuck and double yuck! I'm going to have nightmares from this one. p.s. Barbies are okay.

That is a very, very scary doll! I am probably going to have a bad dream about you finding that doll!

Oh, and the short thing. I have decided that even when capri's aren't in style, I will be wearing them. My legs are way to long to wear shorts!

You are so funny! I know someone else who has a fear of dolls...for her it's the eyes. I can pretty well agree with the majority of your list. Bugs are too bad though which is good because I have 2 daughters that love to find and hold them.

The Twilight Zone music started playing in my head when I saw the doll - do do do do do do do do...

I don't like dolls either, especially those that look real or whose eyes look like they are following you....

I am so sorry that my post made you want to vomit!! I feel really bad, but after talking to a couple of my friends, they told me I needed to share. I really liked your post on 13 Thursday! Hope you do have a good weekend

My parents have a doll that is almost as old as I am. It has creepy, giant blue eyes and is missing an arm! It freaks me out everytime I see it, but they hang on to it because the girls might like to play with it. Ugh!!

I am totally scared of sharks. I know this sounds crazy (and I can't believe I'm actually sharing this!), but sometimes at night when I'm falling asleep, I think about sharks. I picture Rob and me at the beach and a shark coming at us. I freak myself out! Totally weird - we get to the beach maybe once a year, but I still worry about them.

Ewww. I am not afraid of dolls, but puppets. Just people puppets, not animals ones.

That's a creepy little doll! I'm terrified of tree roaches--those inch or two inch long roaches that they have in south Texas and Florida, etc. Those things petrify me. They scare my 75 pound dog, too...

I thought for sure I was going to see a snake in your yard. The doll was the last think I expected. Pretty creepy though!

Stacy said...

Hey Dana! I talked with Amy yesterday and I am LEARNING HOW TO SEW and SMOCK! I can already see that I too will be a fabricoholic! Amy and I are going on a field trip on Thursday the 22nd of May and you need to join us. I set my blog to private, but send me an email at stacys at hot mail dot com and we can catch up! PS Your cuties are too cute!

forget that the doll is dirty...it is super scary looking on its own! it looks like it could come alive and start singing creepy showtunes.
