Toujours l'Amour


TOUJOURS L'AMOUR

He has arrived.  Here is little Toujours L'Amour.  He is a little cherub bear approximately
8 1/2 inches tall with feather wings and a heart emblazoned on his chest.  Just in time for Valentine's Day.  I will be listing him on Etsy tomorrow, after I take some more photos.

New Year, New Start

Well, I sure started the year out right; with a week's stay in the hospital with pneumonia.  What a crummy way to start the year.  I am diabetic and the doctor put me on IV medication which he described as steroids on steroids.  Boy, did it wreak havoc on my blood sugar.  But, I guess better that than a longer hospital stay with less effective medications.  And they injected me in the belly with this medication that prevents blood clots.  It caused these HUGE black and blue marks that are now healing and itch like crazy  Oof.   So, now I am behinder than I've ever been. 
Well, at any rate, I am presently working on my first bear of 2012.  It is a little 9 inch Valentine bear which I hope to complete by week's end.  So watch out.  I will be previewing her/him (don't know the sex yet) here and on facebook.  I also have plans for an Easter bear or bunny  with a little parasol. 
I hope you have had a better start to the new year than I.
