Bears are still sitting in our windowsill and others all along the block have joined in ... and some change the bears and bunnies every few days.... I try to make ours more interesting every so often as well.
Radcliffe was admiring some sunglasses the other day....so I gave him a pair to wear.... he thought he was pretty cool..... so did the kids who walk by and wave and point and have a giggle....
Hope everybody is safe and healthy....

World wide bear hunt...
They've noticed us 'bear people' on the National Post ...woohooo...
For a few weeks now, bear people have been putting bears in their windows to entertain others who walk past. I've see so many people walking I can't believe they all live on my block.
They must be bored to tears... or having absolutely not one more thing to do in the house. I decided to do it after one of the girls on a teddy bear group showed her big red bear in a window...half hidden by curtains.
Tigger, Bernie and Floppy were the first three... well, first let me back track a bit...
There was an episode the first few days that Mr. BumbleVee was working from home ... and poor little Bernie thought it was going to be non stop fun having his Daddy home ... he yukked things up a bit too much from too close to the newly organized 'office area'.. and this happened.... (erm.....it had already happened to me a bit earlier)......
So, little Bernie and I had a chat and I encouraged him to find some other pastimes and ..he did. He wanted to sit on the windowsill and wave at kids....
But, then it got colder and even snowed.... they were bored......... so Bernie hung out with me at the computer and saw a little bear with a party hat. That did it. He insisted that we make one for him.
so, we made a cone out of coloured paper and put two 'scrunchies' on the top for a pom pom and taped it to his head. He was a bit concerned about the tape on his forehead area and thought it might flatten his fur. I told him that he already has sort of 'flattish' fur, but assured him I would brush up his fur each night when I take them out of the window.
So, he made a little sign and got back on the windowsill...... looking out for people and waving.... even the Dads are waving back at us....
The neighbour across the street joined in... even though she usually thinks I'm a nut job....
Then Elmo and Radcliffe hopped up there too...and, there were plenty of bears on the sill...which is too narrow for their bums, but I balanced them on books..except Radcliffe; he can do the splits.
Then, it got colder ................ and then............................it snowed some more. They are not happy bears.........
