I Am Your Teddy Bear

This is actually NOT a photo for the Scavenger Hunt. I wanted to post one: FRAMED, but it didnt work out at all. Before posting something crappy, I do have standards too, you know… I am rather posting something else.

Around Christmas Time, there is a lot of, what we mail carriers call begging mail sent out. Christmas cards, pens, whatever, by various charities that live off donations, like orphanages, animal rescues and so on… Right now they are sending out thousands of little Teddy Bears:

Herz Baerchen

They are adorable! They have a little heart sticking to them with the recipients name on it. They are sent out by an organization for children with a sick heart. Unfortunately, a lot of people want to return them but the sender does not want them returned! So either we throw them away, or we keep them for ourselves. I keep them obviously. I already have about a dozen. 🙂 I am sure more will join them. I think they are adorable and I plan to donate, too. But its so hard to donate, because you cant be sure that this specific organization wont hand out your address to other organizations and before you know it, you are bombarded with begging mail as well. Sigh.

Must go to bed now. SO TIRED and its already way too late. I have Uni tomorrow, as well. SLEEP WELL BLOGGING WORLD! âž¡
