At the time i signed up for the board, i had a cat named Bear. He had dark gray fur.
It was the first thing i thought of when asked for a screen name.
Bear was "Blueberry" because of his coat color - but it eventually became " Bear."
We sometimes call DH "Papa Bear" - his hair is more white than gray.
I miss my cats. DH is still living.

I got my "bear" name, "Teddybear Lady" from people because I was making small stuffed bears and giving them away. I still do. The little bears are about 6 inches tall. They fit into the palm of your hand. I put a little poem I made up on them..."When you're feeling kind of lonely, and you're feeling kind of blue, Just hold me close to your heart and remember God loves you"! Over the last few years I've made and given away over 3000 of them.
Would you be willing to share your pattern? Do you have any pictures?

I always appreciate your comments and have wondered about your screen name. In fact, I am curious about so many of them. I think you have touched lots of hearts with your bears-how very thoughtful. We all need to be reminded that God loves us. Please keep sharing with us.

Interesting. I once looked up Boston to see who else thinks like me.
Have you ever researched your birthday to see what famous people have the same one as yourself?
(later) I just looked and there are 13 with "Boston" in them. I am the only one with more than 500 posts.

I too always enjoy your topics Bear. They often make me look. LOL. As a result, I had to go look up how many users had feline in their screen name. Only 5 and it would appear I am the only active one. At the time I signed up I had 5 cats. I am now down to two 17 year old cats. One is sickly the other is very healthy and you would never guess he was 17 years old. I am in the process of increasing the ranks by one.
