This goes out to all the people who are struggling with the current condition of our country. Especially the ones that can find compassion in watching a monkey who has more compassion for his stuffed animal than most humans in Congress.
It may not be perfect but I had to try.

I have the joy of feeling that feeling multiple times a day at the hands of Cuddles, Petunia and Shadow, and the peace that face shows I so readily and joyfully recognize.

(13,278 posts)Hubby bought me soft teddy bear a big one in early Feb when I had hip operation. It still sleeps by me and every once in awhile I just hold it. It's very soft and feels comforting.
I am more using it for comfort when I feel like recovery is taking forever. The country feels so big and out of my control, I have given up on worrying about it.
