Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Excellent Iva,
Thank you 

Great Ideas!
Thank's Deb

I received a e-mail through  "My ebay" from a bidder asking me a question. So it is legit.
Here it is in Russian:

I took the e-mail to a on-line translation and this is what I got:

I understand most of it, but kind of blurry on the rest. Is there anyone who can translate it clearer for me.
My auction ends in 20 hours, so i dont have much time to respond.
Thanks!

Thank you friends.   
I had seen the boot purse/handbags before. When I was making it, I was not sure how to close up the bottom. So then I decided to add the mohair lined with wool felt, for a more flat surface so that it could stand up on it's own.

So much fun to make.  :dance:
A great way to use up small pieces of mohair and recycle boots. 

Wow! It looks beautiful 
This should be a superb place to concentrate on sewing and designing your gorgeous creations 

My 87 year old Father in-law told me this joke.....

Do you know why Smokey the Bear never had any cubs?

Because when Mrs. Bear went in heat, Smokey would always hit her with a shovel.....  :crackup:

My husband, being unhappy with my mood swings, bought me a mood
ring the other day so he would be able to monitor my moods.

We've discovered that when I'm in a good mood, it turns green.
When I'm in a bad mood, it leaves a big frickin red mark on his forehead.

Maybe next time he'll buy me a diamond. Dumb___!

  :crackup:  :crackup:

I have finally grasped the reality of why I have such deep feelings for clowns.
As a little girl growing up in Colorado, I would run home after school to watch a program called "Blinky's Fun Club."
I had mentioned this to my son the other day and he sends me this little video and say's
"Mom, you might like to see this." It brought tears to my eyes....   I loved this sweet man.... I understand that now he owns an antique store called "Blinky's Antiques" on Antique Row in Denver.
Hope you enjoy this clip......

I just realized that my eyebrows are still furrowed up while reading this   
Hope that your finger is feeling better today  :hug:   :hug:

Thank you Sheryl,
I just wanted to make sue it was just not me!
Hopefully it will be back on soon......

Does anyone else have their website hosted by bravenet?
I can not sign on to their website or view mine!!! GRRRR 

Yes, we really did have a great time. 
It was really  nice to do just what my hubby and I wanted to do. Eat when we wanted to, go to whichever shop we wanted. And just enjoyed each others company for a change... With no interuptions, no television. Just a radio in the travel trailer we stayed in. It really does a relationship good to be able to do this. And of course, the bears enjoyed the trip and the attention they recieved too!

Miss Sue Ann, The antique stores were fabulous...

Luann, Don't you just love seeing the bluebonnets and the indian brush flowers all over the countryside in the Spring?!

Oh, Daphne! Would it not be a great place for a retreat?
There are bed & breakfast's all over town. So comforting.....

Evening came and we went out to the fairgrounds to see the fireworks display.
What a great time we had  :dance:

SHEW! It is hot here...   Come and sit down with me!

   

We decided to go to the trailer that our relative has on some land there on the outskirts of town. While sitting there eating dinner, here comes a doodling across the lot is an armadillo! Dad said to stay away. They can be pretty dangerous. They may look cute, but they have long claws that can do some serious damage.

After dinner, mom wanted to go back to town and do some more sight-seeing.
She let me take my friend along with me. 
Here we are sitting in front of an old historical Church.
Can you see us?

Here we are!!!

More pics to come....
 

Hi Ya'll! Mom and Dad took me along on a needed weekend trip to Fredericksburg TX. Fredericksburg is a small German heritage town with a BIG tourism business.

See ya later Odessa!

We made it to Fredericksburg after about a 5 hour drive. Mom wanted to visit some antique stores first. This poor cougar kitty...

Dad was having to learn how to use Mom's camera...OOPS!

Mom set me up on this rocking horse. Don't I look cute 
She really wanted to buy it for me but Dad said that is was to expensive...Ol' fuddy duddy...!

More pics to come.......

And fun we should all have Kelly! I totally enjoyed your story about Popeye, and even more of him falling from the table!!  :crackup: 
I seem to have that problem too, just when I have my bear in the perfect position. A gust of wind comes up, or a fly lands on it's nose. 
Thank you for the giggle today. With a giggle and a smile, the world is a better place.  :hug:
