zoinks! ruh roh reni! (i apologize, i felt i needed to incorporate some SD reference😉). another lovely piece. you always find a way to stitch (pun intended) the story together so well. so many pieces mended into one! 👌🏻🫶🏻

now, if you want some holiday stories…i worked at KayBee Toy n Hobby, for two xmases, in a super busy mall on Long Island, i got a few. i also was the mall santa(i stuffed pillows for my belly back then) for one horrible day. it was a favor to a friend, who was snapping the photos. still haven’t forgiven her. 🤣.

hohoho,

Stanley Bear is simply speechless to hear that you worked at a toy shop! You were already famous in his book, but now even more so!

Thank you for reading! You’ve made me so happy with your stitching and mending comment. Aww!

Paw fives always!

Hohoho right back!

As I was reading your epic adventure into self-portraiture I was thinking “there’s promise of a song here” and then I got to the end and THERE WAS !!! Brilliant.
