I have mentioned Barney and his eye fetish before. He is getting worse
Shaun the Sheep (before)
During
And finally,
You will understand why we have to keep Harvey's bedroom door closed at all times. Barney is a soft-toy junkie. All of the poor creatures above were either purchased or donated (thanks Pam), specifically for the purpose of being de-eyed.
Gives me the willies.
Eeeek.

Oh my! I think I have Barney's brothers living with me. Both of them rip the eyes out of any stuffed critter, (then the tail, then the nose and then the poor thing is gutted.) Thank goodness for the thrift shop and 25 cent stuffed animals!

Kay,
so glad to find your blog again - I just happened upon it, whilst fighting the urge to sleep (at work).
Sandy (our puppy) loves stuffed animals too, I worry that she thinks herself quite a preditor. (I hate to think they'd go for the eyes first, in the wild)

As an ophthalmology tech (read: EYEBALLS) for the last 23 years, I have to say,
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
So sorry hear about Charlie, but glad that Barney found you. Happy first day of school to the Boy-O! Take a photo each time; you won't believe how quickly they add up. (Our girlie's in grade 6 this year...)
