Is this where John hires a beautifulyoung blonde with no experience becauseshe resembles a certain entertainer? Becausehe did this another time. Ellie was lessthan happy about his choice. I believe thisis after Ellie tried to help him for awhileand it did not work out.
I started reading the strip when Ellie was just pregnant with April and they were remodeling their kitchen. Although I was old enough to be Ellie’s mother I felt a connection. We were remodeling our kitchen and my daughter was pregnant with her daughter who arrived 3 weeks earlier then April’s arrival and not quite so dramatic. I am enjoying the “Early Years”!
Like Shyygirl’s, my memory ain’t what it used to be. I read For Better or for Worse from the beginning, and can’t recall all the ins and outs, except for the really BIG events. Don’t mind the spoilers, though. I’ll probably forget them, too, by the time the spoiled stuff rolls around!
Not enough parkas in the world to ward off the deep-freeze-with-teeth heading John’s way. He absolutely needs to get out of his own head before opening his mouth.
Too many don’t appreciate their spouses until too late. I hope my son and his x-wife will realize divorce was a mistake. They could both do worse, and I care for them both (although I stopped being her FB friend after divorce). He is no longer on there but we Skype at least once a week and he said this week that she’s been stopping over to help him groom the eclectus pair (their babies).I did all the flowers and cake for their wedding (in my back yard) and made this little dress with bolero jacket. See, I even used gardenias in the bouquet.
I could have made that same mistake because I didn’t know they were reruns. The strip should be renamed, as others have done, to “FBOFW Again” or “FBOFW Reprise”, etc. to warn new readers that some have seen these before.

That’s the attitude that’s gonna make it so hard to find a new assistant and keep him/her.

It always is difficult knowing how you are going to replace someone who you’ve relied on for years in a business.

If he really said that to her, perhaps that would have been the time to let him find replacements for both.
