A teddy bear, or simply a teddy, is a stuffed toy in the form of a bear. The teddy bear was named by Morris Michtom after the 26th president of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt; it was developed apparently simultaneously in the first decade of the 20th century by two toymakers: Richard Steiff in Germany and Michtom in the United States. It became a popular children's toy, and it has been celebrated in story, song, and film.

Since the creation of the first teddy bears (which sought to imitate the form of real bear cubs), "teddies" have greatly varied in form, style, colour, and material. They have become collector's items, with older and rarer teddies appearing at public auctions.Teddy bears are among the most popular gifts for children, and they are often given to adults to signify affection, congratulations, or sympathy.

Good morning everyone and happy Tuesday!

Greetings to Kittykatt,

Thank you for a cuddly start, Kittykatt. I like your SHEM.

I'm glad that you had a good trip, helia, and that you made it safely home.

Bama, yesterday you had the kind of day that Canadians dream of all year. In our dreams, LOL. Today we have a forecast for something falling out of the sky, but our bashful weathermen wouldn't like to commit themselves to rain or snow or anything in between. And yet I would swear that I heard a mosquito land on my ear last night.

Hi, Gma. I hope that your errands go well.

I am going to try to evict Germane from the bathroom and get her heart pill into her, so that I can use the bathroom to shower. If she really doesn't want to get up, I'll start on other things and get to the shower later.

Hope all goes well, Gma.

Good luck getting the bathroom to yourself, Dogged. The eye visit wasn’t too bad lol. I guess you’re referring to the hammock though. I don’t think I’ve ever done that before, must do it more often. Feel free to use it anytime. Hope Germane takes her medicine as we all must. Which reminds me I need to give Tux his iron.

Sitting on the porch enjoying a nice breeze. A huge thank you to wherever this cold front came from as it is splendid. Cold for us means 60s-70s when it could be in the 90s by now. We (the dogs and I) had a nice walk around the yard. FedEx came with a delivery and they didn’t even notice they were having such a good time. Need to get that and bring it in too. I refilled the water bowl on the porch and they’re chilling now.
Next for me is spot clean the floors, the “beloved” cats have left me several gifts, and pet chores, feed, water, litter, and anything else that needs tending.
