I'd posted this donated, old stuffed bear back in January after I'd removed its nasty plastic stuffing at work.
I took it home and washed it. In the washing machine--it was that dirty.
The bear's remaining googly eye came off in the wash, and the bear has been lying around since, looking like a piece of fabric.
I thought about ditching it, but I'd told the woman who'd donated it, her childhood toy, with tears in her eyes that I'd take care of it.
The other day I restuffed it and sewed on button eyes.
The last thing I need is another bear, so I intend to take it back to the store. And yet...
Here's Refreshed Bear last night with Marz:

Speaking of refreshment, this Sunday morning on my back porch, a robin is bathing in a Pyrex casserole dish I filled with water:
Hmmm, R. Bear (R for refreshed) looks pretty happy there with Marz. I think R. Bear would make a wonderful head or back rest when reading.
ReplyDeletePerhaps R. Bear suggested to Robin a bath in a dish that matched.

Good job on the bear rescue!
