Drabble by Kevin Fagan for April 12, 2023

Ralph should be happy, instead of looking annoyed….

Steinbacher doing something for Ralph? (Even if it’s because he’s annoyed.)

My own Christmas stuff is on display throughout the year.

Somebody read this cartoon to me. I thought Steinbauer was looking for a snake called Al ( he’s a friend of Bob the duck)!

Honeybunch sees every month as Christmas. Those lights will be back up before May.

Better clear that with Honeybunch first dude.

i once left my Christmas tree up for 9 years

that bothered by your neighbors decorations. :J

March 1 is my deadline. Then only eight months until I can put stuff up again.

I opened my curtains every morning and find Christmas lights still looking at me. 70°, almost warm enough to drag out the ladder and take them down. Or . . .

Our village still has lights up (and working) on main street

Snow is gone, too many hours of daylight, highs in the 70s and 80s, hotter temperatures on the way … it’s getting very hard not to start mentally playing Christmas songs and yearningly picturing winter scenes again …

Will he back to put them up at Christmas?

Take heart in knowing that it annoyed him.

My late mother would leave hers up year round, but change the covers. The lights themselves were clear, so all she had to do was hearts on Valentine’s, Shamrocks on St Paddy’s, etc.

Steinbauer is being himself.
