I am a slightly disgruntled bear. You see, I was supposed to be taken on adventures last week and photographed in situ. I had high hopes of trips to the movies, rides on slides in the park, picnics in the woods with other bears and opportunities for making mischief.Instead, what do I get. I'll tell you what. I get to watch typing. Yeah, that was real fun I can tell you. It was time for some stern words...
At last it looked like we were going somewhere. I sat in the front seat of the car (with my seatbelt on naturally!) and we travelled for miles to a place called 'work'. I took a careful peek out of the dark bag in which I had been shoved. It looked a fascinating place with multi-coloured flags flying from the ceiling and friendly folk looking very busy.
I sat on the desk and watched ... (you guessed it - more typing!), then we went out somewhere far more interesting. The friendly folk at 'work' were also helping out some nice old ladies and gentlemen in a local care home. They had volunteered to tidy their garden, paint the fences and plant some bulbs. I met these nice old dears called Betty and Maureen.
Things were looking up, but then what? ... I'll tell you what.... Two days sitting in a dark handbag!
And to think that this was supposed to be a task from The Happy Book. Yes, HAPPY! Humph... short-changed I was! I'm off to see what the other participants got up to this week - bet it was more fun than sitting in a bag.
The excuse I got was that "it was such a hectic couple of weeks at work; I didn't have time to play with bears and take photographs... I didn't even get a chance to start the second happy book assignment. I'll be playing catch up for weeks"...
Well, what do you say readers? Shall I accept this excuse and give her a cuddle so she feels better?

I definitely think she deserves a cuddle or two. I hope you both have lots of fun playing catch up. Have a happy week.
ReplyDeleteYes, Toffee, please cuddle her and help to make her feel better. I'm sure she had good intentions ... and your day will come soon! What a cute project. Wishing you much success in catching up.
ReplyDeleteOh poor little bear! Still hibernating most of the time. Well at least you got out of the house a big! Very cute post.
ReplyDeleteAW...what a sweet post..and what a cutie bear!
ReplyDeleteYes indeed, cuddle her, you will both feel better.
ReplyDeleteI think cuddles are definitely in order! I'm loving the image of you with your seat belt on - safety first! And one things clear, you beautiful little bear, you inspired some fun writing! Here's to many more adventures to come!
ReplyDeleteI like the new spin you gave to your post this time.
ReplyDeleteAs one very busy artist, I definitely vote for the cuddle♥
ReplyDeleteI love that we are getting bear's perspective! I'm feeling like a fuddy-duddy for not taking my doll more places now.
ReplyDeleteI think you should give her a cuddle, Toffee. She surely meant well :)
ReplyDeleteVery fun post!!
You can't beat a good hug and you can never, ever have too many....
ReplyDeletei just love your stories...such adventures. are you and toffee cuddling yet?
ReplyDeleteYou poor thing! I think you need the cuddle. The nerve of that one - leaving you stuffed in a dark, dark bag - are you sure you're feeling okay? I'll be watching out for you! Can't wait to see where you do finally get to!
ReplyDeleteTake care little one!
definitely a cuddle (or two!) :)
ReplyDeleteToffee, cuddles are definitly the way to go. If she's as busy as you say, she will need them more than ever! So, cuddle away.
ReplyDeletenow now now ... dun whine too much ... sometimes, you have to give and take. i say a cuddle is in order. (unless you want another 2 days in that handbag ... AGAGAGAGAGAGAGA *echos off* )
