In Oct. Edward and I went to San Antonio to visit his Parents. We had a really nice time -I love them so much! While we were there Edward found his old teddybear he’d had when he was a baby out in the shed. It was dirty with holes and stuffing coming out, but I told him I would try to restore it. He was so nostalgic with the thing, everytime some stuffing would float out he’d catch it and poke it back inside, trying to keep "teddy" whole.
When we got home I just stuck "teddy" in the laundry room so I could figure out what to do with him later. Well somehow he got caught up in a blanket that I threw in the wash, and when I looked in the machine there were millions of little crumbly pieces of stuffing everywhere! I decided to bundle up the blanket and take it outside to shake. I don’t know if I was thinking it would all just blow away in the wind or dissolve or what, because when I was done there were little pieces of stuffing all over the back yard! It looked like it had snowed! I got a mental picture of Edward trying to pick up all the little pieces of his bear and put them back inside the little limp body and I panicked! I got the vacuum out and using the attachments I started vacuuming it all up. I saw the neighbors in the two story behind us watching me, I’m sure they were wondering why this crazy lady was vacuuming her grass! Anyway, all the evidence has been disposed of, and when I go visit my parents after Thanksgiving my mom said she’ll help me put new stuffing in "teddy" and sew him up. I always seem to make so much more work for myself!
