This strip got me to thinking about adult children and their aging parents. Roles can become reversed. I recall a speaker at a conference saying that there can come a time when “mother becomes daughter and daughter becomes mother”. Same with sons and their dads—“father becomes son and son becomes father.” Think about that…and I bet you will understand the dynamics of those role reversals…
So true. But in the case, so rewarding too. My Dad had a very peaceful passing at 97. Was more cognitive than I was. RIP seven years ago. I turn 75 next year.

Opal does “bark” entirely too much lately! And snarl, and growl, and whine…

Well Earl what do you do for the dog and your wife ?

But in Opal’s case, her barking usually leads to growling…

Ahh, nothing like a pair of slippers, soaked in dog spit.

In my house, I’d bark at the dog and my husband would get his own damned slippers!

Earl is in the park without Roscoe? What is Roscoe doing? Nothing bad! He’s a good dog! : )

Not quite as convoluted as changing cellular providers.

More snark than bark, and the occasional bowl of pudding dumped on your head.
