#MerryChristmas Everyone! Hope you are all staying safe & wishing you a warm cosy Christmas. I thought this photo of one of my previous Christmas #DressForME #charitychallenge for @Invest_in_ME may bring you some Christmas cheer!! Big squishy tinselly hugs of love from me xxx 🥰

2/2 So, I’m going to apologise on their behalf for being lazy. They need to learn a thing or two from me on work ethics.
Anyway, I wanted to wish all of you out there a very merry Christmas. It’s a strange one this year. Take care of yourself. 🐻

1/2 Well, the minions failed me by not keeping up with my advent calendar. Something about being too busy trying to work on the charity. I’m pretty sure they just wanted to eat mince pies.

[IIMER Bear @iimerbear]

2/2 P.S. don’t worry, Santa and mouse elf are part of my bubble! Or should I say bauble... 😁

Beary Christmas everyone! 🎄 🐻

1/2 ‘IIMER Bear Advent Calendar’ 🐻

Day 5: It’s International Volunteer’s Day! So happy they made a day in my honour (and all the other volunteers that have been working tirelessly for biomedical research into #MEcfs. I’m tucking into a mince pie in our honour.

[IIMER Bear @iimerbear]

2/2 You know what I said - if they did a better job, I might pay them... But no, instead they make me pose like I’m a Christmas decoration. Hmph. They are the mean ones here!

Beary Christmas everyone! 🎄 🐻

Day 4: Apparently I’m being mean to the minions. That’s what they said anyway. They said that they are only volunteers, spending their time on the charity for free.

[IIMER Bear @iimerbear]

2/2 So, I made them make e-cards available and the idea is you donate what you would have spent on cards on me instead...

Day 3: No Christmas cards from the charity this year. The minions gave some excuse about a virus or something. I just think they are slacking.

[IIMER Bear @iimerbear]

2/2 So here it is. Go and see it if you want. Or don’t. Up to you. I wouldn’t - my one’s better.

Day 2: Did you know the minions have created their own advent calendar? They got jealous and didn’t want me taking all the attention. Anyway, they said I had to share the link (they made me link it in my bio as well).

[IIMER Bear @iimerbear]

3/3 Day 1: Tucking into Christmas sandwiches from @marksandspencer. Don’t worry, I ate both. No sharing in this household!

Beary Christmas everyone! 🎄

1/3 It’s been a while, I know. I blame the minions.

You see, I tried to furlough them but then realised that meant I would have to do all the work. So, instead, I furloughed myself and left them to do all the work whilst I had a well deserved rest.

[IIMER Bear @iimerbear]

2/3 I’m sorry if the charity went downhill during that time. It’s just not the same without my magic touch.

Anyway, I’m back, and what better way to start it all again then the ‘IIMER Bear Advent Calendar’.
