Bearthday fun stuff

I received this cool postcard from Little Fox in the mail last month. It's a postcard from the Great Smoky Mountains! This bear looks so cute, as all bears are! 😊Thanks Little Fox!

Next, I got a bearthday card from Droopy and friends. Look, this is a homemade card which is the best kind. It is made from buttons and craft paper. Droopy is very good at making cards. Maybe he could create a line of stuffie greeting cards?

Droopy also sent me something that I have never seen before. Also enclosed with the card were sheets of postage stamps... with my face printed on them!

Now I can write letters to my stuffie friends and everyone will immediately know it is from me just by looking at the stamp. Thanks Droopy!

I had a great bearthday! My mom said she ordered me a new shirt for my bearthday but it was a little delayed in shipping, so I have to wait a bit longer, but that's okay!

Update: Uncle Tibbs

A few months ago, we found Uncle Tibbs lying on the couch. He seemed to be in pretty bad shape at the time and quite stressed out.

It's always good to check-in with friends to see how they are doing in challenging times, so let's see what he is up to now.

Ah, there he is! He's... lying down... oh no... this is not looking good.

"Uncle Tibbs, are you okay?" I asked. He did not respond!

I moved closer.

"Uncle Tibbs...?"

Ah-a! Uncle Tibbs can't hear me because he is listening to nice, relaxing music on his earphones. He also has fresh cucumber slices on his eyes to cool any inflammation.

And he is being served fresh water with a slice of citrus on the side!

This looks like a wonderful spa treatment for Uncle Tibbs! We'll just leave him alone to enjoy it and won't bother him this time.

And hey... this looks so nice... I'd like to have one myself...

Remember to RELAX everybody!

Also, thank you everyone for the birthday wishes last week! I received some cool stuff in the mail and will show you soon next time!

Secretary job posting

My friend Helen drew this picture of me! It's me in my Steve Jobs Halloween costume. I think it's terrific! What do you think? Thank you Helen!

Build-a-Bear Pay Your Age Day

Hey everyone, did you hear about Build-a-Bear's Pay Your Age Day last week? Apparently you could get any bear in the store and would only have to pay your age (my mom says it would not be worth it for her.) Well, it was so popular that they had to close the lines early because of overcrowding!

You might be wondering if I took part in this since I do love Build-a-Bear clothes, but after my recent iPhone X and Black Friday shopping experiences, I decided to stay home.

Did anyone go to Build-a-Bear for this?
