Apple Dumpling DesignsI just wanted to tell everyone who has posted photo's of their darling little creations that I am so amazed at everyone's creativity, uniqueness and special talent they have. I've looked at them all but it's just too hard to post something on each one. I've really been trying to behave myself and choose where I spend my computer time...guess where that is... 
... more than about 15 minutes at a time and I start getting having visual problems and warnings of a migraine.
So...congratuations to each and everyone...you all inspire me to work harder and find my innerbear 
:)
Love to you...
Shantell
PS... Now stop making those darn cute bears...I can't afford them all!!!

Matilda Huggington-beareShantell!! you beat me to it. I having been thinking the same thing. I spend so much time on teddytalk that when I cant look or comment on everybear, I feel that I might have upset someone. And I was wondering if maybe I should post an explanation and apology.I do it now!!!!:clap::clap::clap:to everyone.

Acid Attic BearsI take the liberty to write in this topic to say that I watch your wonderful bears every few time I can find and that I agree : they are all marvellous !
I do not have the time to take part in discussions and leave comments as much as I would like to, but I send you all my love and lots of beary hugs .
Amitiés,

We are all a bunch of co-dependent, neurotic, people pleasers, aren't we??? That's a good thing, in many ways; it's a warm and caring thing, and I relate to every one of you who are like me in that characteristic.
Now, having said that... knock the guilty crap off and just enjoy yourselves here, already.
This is an immensely talented, sharing, and warm, nurturing bunch. I think everyone here realizes how much time (which is "too much" time!) it takes to participate fully in every single post at TEDDY TALK, and can steel themselves against the "wounding and hurt" of not receiving comment from EVERY SINGLE member, on EVERY SINGLE post.
Yeesh, people. Let go of that feeling of obligation to comment and bring to the board what you can, when you can. That's all ANY OF US likely expect.
I adore you for your big and caring hearts, each and every one.
Upstate New YorkWhat Shantell said! I know that for me whether or not to post is primarily a function of whether or not dinner is burning or Mother Nature is calling or Seinfeld is on or my daughter is on the phone or I’m late for whatever … you know. I've been thinking the same thing Shantell; thanks.
Nova Scotia,CanadaMe too,I love to look at the wonderful bears but with school back in,I need to choose between reading/posting or making bears which I have little time for because of so many teaching days,the part time job,my not feeling well and life in general. I hope no one is offended if they always comment on my bears but I don't seem to respond to theirs.I love them all, :clap: you girls are so talented and I always love to read your wonderful comments when I put a picture up but time is very short as of late.Love you guys the mostest!! All we can do is support each other and post when we can.Hugs,Shari.
Flying Fur StudiosWell Shelli, I feel I need to respond to your post. Even though I need to get off the computer. Don't want you to feel bad!!!! 
:twisted: :pray: :dance: Just kidding!!
I love that you guys have said this. My best friend in the whole world is great, because we respect eachothers space. If she can't call me for a while. I understand etc. That's why you guys are so great too. No hard feelings here. We gotta be making bears sometime right?? LOL

Past Time BearsDitto . . . I'll have to admit to being one of those that feels the need to try to respond to everything and everyone. It can't be done if you have other responsibilities and I find that what suffers the most at my house is - unfortunately - making bears. But, like any addiction, I have to have that "fix" every day, so will try to juggle my time more effectively - if that's possible!!
