CountryMouse's Refuge

Hurried and got Christopher, my Vermont Teddy Bear, all dressed up in his jeans and tee shirt and work boots this morning, so I could catch the sun and take photos of him.:-) I usually have him running around naked (he can bend his legs better and sit down more comfortably without the stricture of the jeans; plus he looks more Pooh-like au naturel); but I wanted to get photos of how he looked when he first arrived here, on Christmas morning, last December. :-)

I hope the photos turn out well. I know I am not anywhere near the kind of photographer some of you-all on LiveJournal are (looks meaningfully at gooroo, for one), but I just want people to get to see my cutie-pies. :-) Eventually--LOL! I've been saying for YEARS that I was going to make a section of pictures on my website of my fuzzy and beanie people, but so far I haven't gotten a round tuit. (I actually *did* have one many years ago...it was wooden! But I don't know what happened to it...)

I just finished listening to Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 in E flat major ("Emperor"), along with a couple of bears (Christopher and Butterbeary, to be exact). :-D Wow, I love the third movement, especially--makes me feel all happy and bouncy and DANCEY! :-)

Okay, off to get some lunch. :-)

I should update my VP Diary, but I am WAY too tired to do that tonight. Maybe if I get up early tomorrow morning.

This afternoon: took a kinda sorta nap (rested, dozed). Then Cat'r arrived. He read the rest of a David Sedaris essay/funny piece to me (he had read the first half a couple of nights ago). Then we all watched last night's "The Lone Gunmen" that I had trash-taped last night (trash-taping=taping for temporary purposes only).

I had a late supper. Now I need SLEEP. Night, all. :-)
