Adam@Home by Rob Harrell for July 26, 2019

Wanna bet?

A trip to the woodshed with a 2 × 4 !!!!

“She just wants to tell me how excited she is…”

No, I think she want to beat it into you. Kiss “Sweatmas” goodbye.

Gifts, good food, cookies, parties…

That’ll put the sweat in Sweatmas, for Laura.

She can take care of all that while he builds the Sweatmas Tree.

Al the more work for the one person who works in that family? He’s seriously insulting us freelancers! I just did an “urgent” all-nighter for a new client, on top of my usual regulars. How does Adam sit around doing nothing?

Sure Adam; Laura looks so thrilled, doesn’t she?

We wish you a merry sweatmas! Now Adam, go back to your padded room and eat your pudding!

Huh — my wife takes care of very little of that fun stuff. I’ve always put up and taken down the tree and wreathes. That includes decorating and un-decorating. She has done some of the baking, but no more than me. We don’t cook at Christmas. I was the stocking stuffer and gift wrapper of about half the gifts. So I guess if I want another holiday, I can have it.

please slap him back into SOME reality.

Read the room Adam, read the room.

Oh yeah, logistics and labor. The sore point of any big celebration.

The stores and auto dealers are already supporting this idea, they just call it Christmas in July.

She probably just thinks they need reconsider the name of the holiday. To something like, Momma-works-her-a$$-off-mas.

And of course lights, outdoor lights on your house. Then I would have a legitimate excuse for leaving them up all year.

I think he lost her at “All the stuff YOU do.” Since it’s just me now I don’t even decorate for Christmas much less any other holiday. Use to love it though, I must admit.

Good grief Adam! I know you live in a fiction-book world, but for Heaven’s sake, how long have you been married?? That look on her face is anything but excitement. LOLOL – Funny ’toon Rob ♥
