Christmas Bear

Gene has given me many stuffed animals over the years.  Our house has many animals around here and there.  I had to cover the shelf by my desk when Chewie was here.  He can reach them and drags them out, thinking  my toys are doggie toys.

My newest toy satisfies the "Xmas" prompt in the Scavenger Hunt from Life 51

Number 7, Xmas - the sketch is small under the angel from the previous post.  The bear is larger than usual at about 18 inches tall.  Soft and fluffy as it should be.  Thanks, Gene!

Still posting from my phone.  I'm using my iMac to type with a connection to the internet on my phone.  Very inconvenient, but things could be worse.  We are fine, not in a war, not hungry or cold.  Just spoiled and worried about the border, crime and inflation.  Thanks to our wonderful President Biden and Congress.  I'm surprised more of the lazy rich bums were not voted out of office.  That should be our job and we didn't accomplish that!

Sweet-looking bear! You made him look nice and soft. I hope your internet problems get worked out. Have a great New Year's Eve!!!

I love that Gene buys you stuffed animals - so much better than a vacuum.

Our Federal government should be much smaller - used to protect and keep people safe. Instead, they spend money that is not theirs on projects that are not important. It is a mess.

Joan, thank you so much. It's a slow process on the internet.

bag blog, ha, thanks. He would love to have a real little dog, I'm happy with the visits from the grand-dogs.
Yep our government spending is out of hand. The last appropriations bill was like 4,000 pages, they have no idea what they are doing.
