Best Comic Strip

Filed under: Funny stuff, Things that make me happy — allmycke @ 11:32 am


I ‘found’ For Better Or For Worse when my son was a toddler, and it became my favorite comic strip from that day on. Lynn Johnston has described my family (and yours?) with absolute perfection since 1979, but now she has decided to call it quits. That makes my collection of her books even more dear to me and I’m sure they will give me numerous more laughs over the years. The above strip could have been an illustration to what it looked like in our den the other night – Tjorro was by my feet doing exactly the same thing as Eddy and my reaction was exactly the same as Elly’s.
Earlier today I was moping around the house thinking about what a dull week this has been. Strange and unpredictable weather, couldn’t very well go outside, didn’t have the energy to do much of anything inside….
Then I remembered ‘the-world’s-smallest-record-player….’ which I’ve used to demonstrate for others when they’ve complained and belly-ached for no good reason.
Unlike the absolute majority of lung cancer-patients, I was lucky enough that mine was detected in Stage I. I was operated on within 5 weeks of my first appointment at the local hospital and am now receiving supplementary chemo which will further better my chances of surviving – and I was feeling sorry for myself!
Having come thus far in my thinking I finished cleaning the house, got dressed and went out with Tjorro.
