Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

I love Terrie's bears as well and it's no wonder you love this little guy. He's darling. Beautiful little face. Lucky you. :hug:

So awesome. What a wonderful imagination you have and your work is so unique.

What a face! Lisa, I agree with everyone else. You do have an out-of-the-box imagination and I love these little guys. You're just too talented...I love the things you do with socks, too.    

What a sweet little face. No wonder he was selected for Mr. November.

Pretty kitty. No wonder she was snapped up so quickly.

Wow, really beautiful, Jenny. Sorry I can't come up with something more original, but really, really WOW!

Wow is right. They're wonderful! :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Whatever the agrument, looks like they made up before nap time.

You are truly a guardian angel for these two. I'll never understand abandoning animals. I guess some people have no conscience. God Bless you, Millie, and your kind heart. :hug:

Adorable kitties. I love the picture of mom and kitties all snuggled together.  

Jodi, congratulations on your approval from the Susan G Koman foundation. Your persistence has paid off. You're an amazing organizer! :hug:

Oh Lynette, I'm so sorry about Jessie. I know you must be so worried. These little guys really grab our hearts. Jessie's a beautiful girl. I wish her a speedy recovery. :hug:  :hug:

I'm so glad to hear you dad's doing so well.  :hug:

Sarah! On the cover! You must be walking on a cloud. Congratulations.

Sarah, I like Labours of Love and also Erica's in Indiana. http://www.ericas.com/

Happy browsing.

Aawww...that's just way too cute.

Oh, thank you, thank you, Wendy! :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Great site, Julia. Your bears are adorable. I don't have a website, but if you're linking to blogs, please consider adding me. :hug:

Oh, Paula, I'm so sorry about this situation. Your bears are so wonderful; I'm sure you're heartbroken over this.

I just can't imagine how people come up with these schemes. It would never occur to me to try to scam someone. I've learned a lot about ebay from TT. Sometimes it seems wonderful and I think, maybe I should try it. Then the next day something like this happens. And, like all of you, I would no doubt trust that the bidder was serious and sincere aqbout her bid.

I'm also amazed by those of you who have a closed auction and then have trouble contacting your bidder. Of course, I understand instances of being unable to use the computer or other problems that might distract a person, but I just don't understand people bidding if they don't intend to go through with the purchase.

I hope this works out for you, Paula...and I don't blame you for wanting to get this person's name out.

Krista, get to work! I will miss reading your posts but I think we all understand being very busy. It's so much fun to get on TT and see what's happening...before I know it I'm sometimes on a couple of hours and have nothing done. Good luck, not that you'll need it, with your show...and remember pictures, lots of pictures.

Thanks, everyone. I didn't expect such a welcome. I missed all of you, too!

Ashley's promised not to buy anything else this year...yeah, and I believe that! I guess I'm a little bit that way, too, but I've been at it much longer than she has. She's promised me to help clear my clutter so we're "employing" her to help us downsize the clutter and paint and stuff.

I'm really kind of glad because she is persistent...she can get her dad to move where I can't. She's home one day and she drags us to Lowe's and we buy paint...today she painted her bathroom...at this rate, things will get done quickly.

Thanks, all. :hug:

Wendy, I would love to link with you but I don't have a website...just a blog, but please, please add me...

Jodi, I'm so sorry this is happening to you, but as everyone has already said, you will come out of it a stronger person. You have great faith and that will help you, too.

I would agree with others, though, who advised you to get an attorney. I don't know about laws in your state, but with your husband filing, your attorney might be able to get your attorney fees paid by your husband. And, truly you need someone watching out for you. You can't trust that your husband's attorney will take care of you properly. I don't have any first hand experience, but many, many years ago when I was young, I spent 15 years as legal secretary and I've seen even amicable divorces get messy...divorces and probates...seems people take leave of their senses and become possessed by the devil. It makes a bad situation even worse.

Take care of yourself. :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Congrats, Peta. Noah is just beautiful and I'm sure you're glad he's here. All of your children are beautiful and they do look like they want to keep him.    

Debbie...ouch. It looks like I missed the whole event. I see you popped out and back two times already. I hope you've gotten it back where it belongs now. But I'm sending more squishy hugs, too...maybe you can save them for next time...
