(special note: always "refresh" your browser to get the most updated webpage) The teddy bears and I wish everyone a very "Merry Christmas" and a New Year filled with good health, lots of love, and much happiness!! I've thought of all of your often this year, even though I've been a bit "out of touch." 2011 turned out to be a year where I had to take a break from much of my bearmaking to attend to family responsibilities. But I intend to be back with new bears in 2012 and a new way of offering them for adoption. I also had a problem with my email this summer and fall, where I didn't realize many incoming emails were being tagged as "spam" and not getting to my inbox. My email provider says the problem is resolved, but I'm still working with them to recover and sort through all undelivered emails. lots of love and big bear hugs, Mary You can visit my "BLOG" by clicking on the word BLOG at the top of this website or by clicking on this link: marygeorgebears.blogspot.com (I will be posting a weekly entry, mostly on Sundays, beginning soon, to let you know what I'm up to and what bears I'm working on.
