Hey folks,

Yep, temperatures have certainly dropped here in the great state of Texlandia. It's much welcome, trust me on this. hehe

Also, I'm well aware of the lack of Halloween treats this year on my page. Guess I've not really be feeling it this year. Will try for a stream sometime tomorrow if I can, it may have some Halloween related things in it, but it probably won't be a full on thing. Usually I'm in full swing by this time, but this year.. eh..

Anyways, y'all take care of yourselves and be sure to give those you love a great big hug.

Much love and bear cuddles,
-Papa Ed.

Good day, fam.

I hope everyone is doing well today. I woke up late this morning, stepped outside and was greeted by nice cool breezes. Ahh, finally Fall has arrived here in my part of Texlandia. We're expected to have low 70s to 80s the rest of the week, with lows hitting around 45 to 50. Yes... I've been waiting so long.

Needless to say, after I walked Chip, I decided to just sit on the porch and enjoy the morning.

Anyway, not much else going on right now. Joe talked to me last night, he wants to take me out Friday for our 25th Anniversary. Yeah.. 25 years...who would've thunk? So it looks like we're going to Roma's, my most favorite Italian place. <3 I can't wait. <3

Also Chip's bday is on the same day, he's gonna be 7 years old..hard to believe, but yeah. He's literally turning into a grey muzzle. Heheh

Alright, that'll be it for me. Remember to take care of yourselves and make sure to hug the ones you love!

Big burr hugs and cuddles,
-Papa Ed.

Hey all,

Hoping that y'all are doing well out there. It's been a quiet couple days here and been trying to write. Not a lotta luck, but I continue to try.

Also, could use some positive thoughts and energy sent his way. His Mom is in the hospital for gall bladder surgery. So please, send some love his way.

Big love and hugs,
-Papa Ed.

Hey kids,

Another early morning start. Got to bed early and woke up around 3:30am. Still, I slept well..so that's a good thing. Now I need to wrangle up some food and see what I can do with this day.

Hope y'all are good. Be kind to each other and give hugs!

Much love,
-Papa Ed.

Hey kids,

I had planned to stream again last evening, but ended up crashing and sleeping for about a solid 9 hours, uninterrupted. Let me tell ya, that's not happened in about 2 years. And it was glorious, highly recommend. The new bed is doing wonders for my back. The whole not waking up with back pain is a very good thing. <3

So yeah, did stream for a little bit yesterday afternoon and had a really good time. Thanks y'all to those who tuned in. <3

I'm gonna let everyone go for now, remember to take care of yourselves and give plenty of hugs to those who need it.

Much love,
-Papa Ed.

Hey all,

Some good news, my carpet has been shampooed in my new room and I may be able to slowly start moving things into it. OMG I'm so happy. It's gonna be nice sleeping on a real bed again and having space to stretch out and display my collectibles. <3

Thanks to Joe and Lily for helping me with this. It's gonna be so nice.

A couple things I need to look into is getting Chip a food mat and new bowls for his food and water. I'm sure the little bugger ain't gonna know what to do with all the fresh new space. <3

That's it for me, just a quick catch-up. Y'all be sure to take care of yourselves and others.

Much love,
-Papa Ed.

Howdy all,

Wanna say thanks to everyone who hung out with me and Bob. I had a great time. <3 There will be more spooky streams to come in the future. Along with the completion of Vile Manor.

Nothing happening here, Joe and I are going out later to get supplies for Magic night. <3 Hope I can test my new deck out, been wanting too ever since I constructed the thing, I hope it works well and isn't a flop. heh.

Also I wanna say thanks again for the kind words regarding my projects and creative stuff...my mind was in a dumb place again and it felt nice heaering that y'all still want me around. BIG HUGS!

Alright, that's it..take care of yourselves and give those who need it the big big hugs.

Much love,
-Papa Ed.

Good timezone everyone,

Hope that y'all are good today. Another quiet day here at home. Worked on a couple projects and hung out with friends for a bit.

I am planning a stream soon, so please be patient. Last couple days I've been kinda in the dumps. Won't go into detail..just that my creative flow is a bit low right now. I've been questioning myself on projects and if I even should try working on certain things..just I honestly don't know where my head is atm.

I'll work through it, but as a creator...am I still valid around here?

-Ed

Been a quiet couple of days. I know I kinda been absent from things. I was taking a break from posting and such. I hope y'all are doing ok.

Burr hugs and snugs,
-Papa Ed.

Hey kids,

I do hope everyone is having a good Saturday so far. I woke up early today and decided to take a walk before it became to warm to do so. I still managed to sweat through my shirt though cause well, I'm a fat burr and I tend to do that.

Anyway, after I came home, I took a nice shower and now I'm nomming on doughnuts, as ya do. It's a reward, shush.

That's it for me, and hey, y'all deserve something too, so go treat yourselves.\

Big Burr Hugs & Cuddles,
-Papa Ed.

Hey all,

Had a rough go of it last night. A real bad migraine pop-up out of nowhere. To the point it was causing my vision to blur. I laid down, and it stuck around right till morning. I think I maybe got 2-3 hours of sleep. So that was no fun.

After I got up, I took a long, hot shower. I took some pain meds and having something to drink. It's finally getting better. I have no clue what caused it. I would attribute it to my glasses, I know I need a new prescription, but I don't think that was it. I rarely wear glasses at my computer. So maybe it was that..too long in front of a monitor? I mean, yeah...probably. But it is better now after I did a little self-care.

Eh..enough of my rambling. I tend to do that.

Anyway, take care of yourselves and give out hugs to those who need em.

Much Love,
-Papa Ed.

Hey Fam,

How's everyone out there. Wanted to check in and make sure y'all are taking care of yourselves. I know it's been a few days since my last journal..found that sometimes I don't really know what to talk about and I run out of things to say.

I won't go deep into it, but the last couple days my mood has been in the crapper. The depression has hit me kinda hard and I just don't want to talk to anyone or do anything about it. Basically, I forced myself outta bed so I could at least do the bare minimum.

Today is a better day though. It's just I want folks to kinda know, I deal with the depression every day of my life and it's something I've dealt with since I was a teenager. I have my good and bad days. Fortunately for me, I got folks like Joe, Dan and all y'all to hang on to. So..I wanna thank those who've stuck around.

Anyway, please make sure to hug a friend today and tell them just how much you love and care for em. They need to hear that from time to time.

That's it for now.

Much love,
-Papa Ed.

Hey y'all,

Early start for me this morning. Woke up around 6am to let Chip out..but felt I hadn't slept enough and crashed for another couple hours. After I finally rolled out of bed, I gathered my clothes and started on my laundry, I let it go again. I've had no motivation these past couple of days and just didn't feel like doing it. Figured today was as good a day as any to catch up on that particular chore.

Nothing else going on really, talked to Dan about my Christmas pngtuber model and he's all for it..so y'all may see a particular Santa Bear in December. So that's certainly something to look forward too.

So yeah, that's it, not much else to speak on right now..so take care of yourselves and each other.

Much Love and Bear Hugs,
-Papa Ed.

Hey all,

Y'all good today? Looks like we had an upswing in the temps today. UGH. C'mon Fall!!!!

Anyway, I finally got around to hauling my old Sony TV to the dumpster, it's been sitting on one of my counters for awhile now. Thing was taking up space, but with everything that had been going on, it was pretty much low priority. Ah..well..it's gone now. But man, getting it there was a chore.

Gonna be goin out laters for dinner, then new Star Trek watching with Joe.

That's it on my end, not much new to report. Remember, take care of yourselves.

Big Burr Cuddles and Loves,
-Papa Ed.

Hey kids,

Just wanna say that I had a wonderful time last night hanging out with y'all. It really was a fun stream. :) And my gosh, you certainly were on top of all those clips. Hehe. Thanks bun, that made my day even more.

Starting the day by washing the dogs bedding. His blankets are a bit stanky..so yeah, it's time. Also threw in my pillow, cause with all the sweat, it wasn't doing to great either. But will have fresh bedding soon. So yay! I just thought I'd tackle it before it got to late in the day.

Not much else going on at the moment, just wanted to check-in as I do. <3

I'll let ya get back to it. Much love and a lot of bear hugs!

-Papa Ed

Not much going on today, Fam.

Woke up rather early this morning and let the pupper out. Temps have gone down a bit and Chip stayed out much longer than normal. The heat has been bad. And much like me, he hates the heat... hehe. It is still warm-ish here, but it is much more tolerable to deal with.

Also helps that we've been getting some rains through here. No thunderboomers, but that's cool. They say we might get some scattered downpours throughout the day. But as long as it's nothing major, I can also live with that too. heh

Not sure what I'm doing today. Considering a stream, but may wait till after the rain has moved through, we'll just have to see.

Anyway, gonna let y'all get back to it.

Much love and many bear hugs, oh.. and before I forget.. Take care of yourselves. <3
-Papa Ed.

Good Day my friends,

Papa Bear is just peeking in, making sure y'all are taking care of yourselves. Have ya ate today? Hydrated? Got plenty of rest? It's important to look after yourselves, and be sure to check in on your friends too okay. Some may be struggling and might not say anything but 'I'm Fine'...they may not be. Of course, don't just pressure them, they'll say something eventually, but check-in, be gentle and make sure to remind them that they are loved. All right?

This comes from the heart... I love y'all and I want to know you're making it through. If nothing else, remember that I'm here as a shoulder to lean on, an ear to listen. I may not have the answers.. but I'll make sure to be there for y'all in whatever capacity I can.

Okay.. guess that's it for me.

Much love and huge bear hugs,
-Papa Ed.

Been a couple days since I checked it.

So, how y'all doing? Taking care of yourselves? I sure hope so... I do worry.

Not much going on here, but I just wanted to say hi and that I love y'all.

-Papa Ed.

Hey there my friends and family,

I do hope everyone is well today. Gonna be going through another hot day here..but looks like the forecast for later in the week will be a cooling trend. One can only hope, because I'm ready to break out the warm blankets and comfy hoodies.

Woke up this morning and my allergies just were horrid, eyes were red and I was all sniffly. Popped some meds and that should keep it at bay today.

Also had a bit of a mental break last night.. just no cause for me crying, but there I was. I'm doing much better today, but last night my brain was going through some dark places.

Today will be good, Joe and I are gonna go out for dinner, then watch the new ST:SNW episode. Should be a fun one tonight.

Okay, that's it for me, nothing new to report.

Remember to take care of yourselves and be good to those around you.

Much Love!
-Papa Ed.

Hey all,

Another hot day here, but was mostly okay. Joe and I went to pick up his new glasses, then we went to get pizza and watch some shows. It was a fairly nice evening and I'm feeling overstuffed. That's a good thing, yeah?

-Papa Ed.

Hey there,

Good timezone to all. I'm planning on an early sneak peek of Bob Vile on Twitch. And we'll be building Vile Manor, where he calls home. I think that'll be a lot of fun to do. It's been awhile since I did any kind of fun builds.

Not much else going on here. Trying my best to stay cool, fortunately weather has been almost tolerable. Still though..when Fall hits, I'll be a happy burr.

Hope y'all are taking care of yourselves. I love you guys, and wish all the best for my family.

Big Burr Hugs,
-Papa Ed.

Good timezone, all

Hope that y'all are doing well and hanging in there. I'm doing my best here and trying my darndest to stay cool. It's been ungodly hot. I'm impatient and want that cool weather to start creeping in. <3

Hung out with a few folks last night and had a wonderful time looking at coasters and just being silly, felt that I rambled quite a lot, but I think everyone was okay with that. hehe.

So glad that my Twitch money came in when it did. Got my meds sorted and my bills taken care of through October, so that's a relief off my mind.

Anyway, gonna let everyone go for now.

Remember to take care of yourselves and others, and also remind ya that I'm always here for ya if ya need me.

Much love and bear hugs,
Radar

Good morning (at time of typing this)

Early wake up for me today I guess, I couldn't get back to sleep, so here we are.

Not much going on as I'm trying to wipe away the brain fog and get some caffeine in me. Hung out with a bunch of folks in Discord chat last night and had a wonderful time RPing and just connecting with friends. <3 It was a very nice time and got me to not focus on the dumpster fire that is the world right now.

Anyway, please take care of yourselves today, I worry you know.

Much love and bear hugs,
-Papa Ed.

Been a couple days since I checked in.. so how ya doing, Fam?

I sit here, in the dark and the wee hours of the morning. It's almost 6am and I've not been able to sleep. Hoping I can at least catch a nap later. Problem is, my brain is being stupid again and I can't get it to shut off long enough to get decent rest.

Joe gifted me Tiny Bookshop off of Steam, and I will say I'm really hooked on it. It's a very chill, cozy game and I'm looking forward to showing it off come next stream. Hopefully I'll be streaming soon, I've just been mentally tired and it's been incredibly warm here.

Anyway, gonna let y'all go for now, as I feel I'm rambling. Take care of yourselves and each other.

Much love and big bear hugs,
-Papa Ed.

Good timezone, kids..

Waking early here in Texlandia. Joe and I are going to a Doctor's appointment in a few hours of me writing this. Dunwanna get out today, but it's gotta be done and we're grabbing lunch while out, so there's the upside.

Downside is, I slept like crap last night and my brain isn't firing on all cylinders right now. Ugh, just gotta push through.

Anyways, take care of yourself and be good to others.

Much love,
-Papa Ed.
