Piano is now on "casters" (i.e. tiny jewellery box cabinet knobs). I am pretty happy with this little detail!
Also, after MANY failed attempts, I finally got the TV to have a working light inside! It involved taking apart a puck light, and drilling a hole in the back for the cord. I still need to cover the rest of the hole (and seal the inside) with black electrical tape, so it stops shining out of the cracks where the plastic pieces fit together. But omg you guys, this has been a struggle FOREVER. Alas, it's also REALLY difficult to photograph. But hopefully you get the idea!
Speaking of lighting, I also FINALLY found the fourth IKEA dioder light strip, which is now set up over the piano. I want to get another set at some point, but for now, I'm pretty happy!
Chiesa di Sant Alfonso - "PER RISPETTO ALLA CASA DI DIO E PER L'IGIENE SI PREGA DI NON SPUTARE SUL PAVIMENTO"
Thrifted this vintage doll dress a while ago, with many of the seams completely torn out, and I finally fixed it today. It became smaller, of course, but I think it looks good on this Clawdia repainted by John, especially alongside Halloween stuff...
Somebody let me know this is a 1974 Barbie Best Buy dress!

This is a Venezuelan 5 Bolívares coin minted in Caracas in 1887, or about 65 years before I came into the world in Caracas. I sometimes wear it as a reminder of my heritage.
The artist who created the coin was Albert Désiré Barre (Paris 6 May 1818 – 29 December 1878), a "French engraver, medalist, and the 18th Chief Engraver of the Paris Mint from 27 February 1855 to his death. He was the son of Jacques-Jean Barre who preceded him as the Chief Engraver."
The portrait side of the coin says "BOLIVAR LIBERATOR." (Today, according to the rules of the Royal Spanish Academy, there would be an accent in BOLÍVAR even though the word is capitalized.)
The obverse side displays the Venezuelan coat of arms with the legend "ESTADOS UNIDOS DE VENEZUELA" (United States of Venezuela) at the top. That was the title of the country from until 1953, when the constitution mandated a return to the name "Republica de Venezuela."
The weight (25 grams), date (1887) and fineness (900) appear at the bottom.
The ribbon to the left of the coat of arms abbreviates the word "INDEPENDENCIA," or Independence, and gives the date of 5 July 1811. That was when seven of the ten provinces of the Captaincy General of Venezuela declared their independence in the Venezuelan Declaration of Independence.
The ribbon on the right says "LIBERTAD," or Liberty, with a date of 28 March 1864. Why was there such a long gap between the declaration of independence and full liberty?
As far as I can tell, it has to do with the history of internecine conflicts in Venezuela. After the Liberal Party (Partido Liberal) won power in the Federal War, it called for a constitutional convention, to establish the constitution on federal principles. On 28 March 1864, members of the convention met in Caracas to sign it.
Oddly, on coins minted in later years, the date of liberty is 13 April 1864, which is when President Falcón ordered the publication and circulation of the new constitution.
God only knows what 5 Bolívares are worth in American currency today, but when I lived in Venezuela the exchange rate was 4 Bs. to the dollar.
The Madre de Dios River, homonymous to the Peruvian region it runs through, then becomes the Beni River in Bolivia and then turns northward into Brazil, where it is called the Madeira River. The Madeira is a tributary to the Amazon River.
The Madre de Dios is an important waterway for the department of Madre de Dios, particularly Puerto Maldonado, the largest town in the area, and the capital of the department. Mango farming and Gold mining are among the many industries on its beaches. Other important industries the Madre de Dios provides are selective logging and farming, both of which are serious environmental problems. Along the length of the river there are several national parks and reserves, notably Tambopata-Candamo National Park, Manu National Park (also known as Manu Biosphere Reserve) and Bahuaja-Sonene National Park.
Madre de Dios is a region in southeastern Peru, bordering Brazil, Bolivia and the Peruvian regions of Puno, Cusco and Ucayali. Its capital is the city of Puerto Maldonado. The name of the region is a very common Spanish-language designation for the Virgin Mary, literally meaning Mother of God.
The region is almost entirely low-lying Amazonian rainforest. The climate is warm and damp, with average temperatures around 26 °C (79 °F) [max. 34 °C (93 °F), min 21 °C (70 °F)]. The rainy season is from December to March, when torrential rainfall causes rivers to swell and often burst their banks. Annual precipitation can be as much as 3 metres (9.8 ft).
The south-western boundary with the Cusco Region is known as the Isthmus of Fitzcarrald, a series of small mountains that separate the Madre de Dios River and the Urubamba River.
Notable rivers in the Madre de Dios River watershed are:
•Inambari River
•Tambopata River
•Manu River
•Tahuamanu River
•Las Piedras River, also known as Tacuatimanu River
•Heath River
•Acre River
•Los Amigos River
Due to the vast size of the area and its low population density, rivers provide the best way of getting from one town to another. Human activity is invariably confined to riverbanks. A number of explorers have searched for the lost city of Paititi in the jungle within the region.
The only road of note is between the town of Puerto Maldonado and the city of Cusco, 530 kilometres (330 mi) away in Cusco Region. However, it is in very poor condition and flights between Cuzco and Puerto Maldonado remain the most common and reliable method of transport between the two.
From Puerto Maldonado there is a road to the mining town of Laberinto ("Labyrinth") (about 50 kilometres (31 mi) long). A second road is between the village of Atalaya and Cuzco. It is a roughly 300 kilometres (190 mi)-long single track road that is impassable in the rainy season.
