Happy Bearentine Day!!!

 Hullo! Yes, today is Bearentine Day (or Valentine's Day for the humans)... and as a gesture of my appreciation to my sekrebeary, I am going to...


... conduct the Annual (or Semi-semi Annual) Sekrebeary Evaluation today! Surprise!

I had a look, and the last evaluation was in 2023... which is not great... although the previous one was in 2015... so this is not bad.

The sekrebeary did "meh" last time. The yellow categories stayed the same... the red went down and the green went up. Overall... she was no functioning at a high sekrebeary level.

Oh, and the blue... that is a new category...

So... now... let me think... how did 2025 go...

I don't think I need any new categories... so let's sit down and do this...

Hmmm... "1 Provides snacks (promptly and without eye rolling) when requested from stuffies"... overall... hmmm... let me think...

This might take a while!!!

*** many "hmmmms" later...****

OK... I finally made it through this. It's challenging you know!

And I was, quite frankly, shocked. So when I did the first run through and saw the results, I had to go through it again... just to double-check...

But I think... overall... it is accurate. Brace yourselves!

Can you believe it??? Improvement across many categories!!!

I mean, I did do a tonne of trips in 2025... and she was on the ball with the blog... so overall... pretty darn good. Mind you... she still fails at "providing complex mysteries for stuffies to solve".

So there is room for improvement! But on the whole... impressive.

I can't really complain you know. I think Ajdin has been struggling for years to get a capable, reliable sekrebeary. Jerry and Ben also need to kick theirs in the behind. Although Beanie's and Little Fox's are both doing tolerable ... pretty good!!

Have you done a sekrebeary evaluation for 2025??

  2. Did not say Andrea is tolerable... said she was doing tolerable!!! Now... have not seen your sekrebeary evaluation soooo...
    Stuffies are beary discerning you know... and "tolerable" is stuffie-speak for "very good" in human speak... I think. Who knows... humans are strange...

    1. I've never done an evaluation on Andrea....... I do the annual review every year, and she does buy me lots of good food and treats, and takes me to a ton of places...... so I can't really complain about her. Much. At all. Really.....

    2. Mind you, you do have that Kit Williams book that's a mystery that needs solving...... you could always start work on that one??

    1. Well, if you think that your sekrebeary is doing well... then that's a mic drop!

  4. I think tolerable must mean something different in Canada than down here. My secretary is terrible at the blog and refuses to "sit" for evaluation meeting.

  5. I'm a tad worried about the low score on back alley adventures. A good goal to work toward in 2026
