Bimb surprised me with the pink Love-a-Lot Bear before my procedures... i asked if the store had more? They got me all available ones this afternoon because for me “CARE BEARS” isn’t just a useful pa cute phrase. i hope i’m remembering accurately... i believe 1983 was when i got my 1st Care Bear- i’m sure it was the peach one, googled now to be sure there was an original peach colored Care Bear, yes it was the one with 2 flowers on the tummy, FRIEND BEAR. i think i’d mentioned it before, i didn’t play with dolls as a younger kid. i liked guns (the noisy wooden ones & the ones that would light up like Christmas lights- because this was the peak of the original Charlie’s Angels tv series); i played with my doctor’s kit that came in a wheeled operating room tray; then the easy bake oven; speak & spell (made famous in E.T.); a teacher’s blackboard with student’s desks; and a cash register that printed receipts for my “supermarket” & “restaurant”; and every imaginable type of microphone. It was only in the 🇺🇸 that i finally had a Cabbage Patch Doll, Strawberry Shortcake, the Smurfs, and a Care Bear. Let’s reminisce about stickers & Lisa Frank another time. We all deserve more of what makes us HAPPY regardless of where we are in life. So here’s wishing all of you a generous supply of smiles & good cheer. #lovelovelove
