It’s the thought that counts

Smart play there Jason

let’s hope no one gets murdered by the end of the day

She can wait and start fixing things tomorrow.

There goes Andy’s supply of gross veggie dinner fodder. Good work, Jason!

Four disasters waiting to happen. Better call a plumber now to be safe.

Actually, Paige’s cooking might be an improvement over Andy’s.

The best thing you can do for her is take the kids and go to a garage sale and see if anyone wants them.

Easy way to tell a weed from a flower…pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it was a flower

Just leave things “as is” and y’all go to the movie and leave Mom home alone. Hopefully some bumbling burglars won’t come along…

Come on, bring back the dailies, Amend! We all love them!

Happy Mother’s Day!

Mother’s Day is the most stressful day of the year

The crowning catastrophe to come is Roger’s threat to tackle a plumbing problem. On a Sunday. Which is a holiday. A double violation of the DIY Oath of Office.

I made my wife a garden bed on wheels. She immediately went out and bought some lettuce and kale seeds. I’ve hidden the kale seeds.

Roger needs to slip Jason a few bucks for taking ‘care’ (out) Andi’s garden. Paige, make sure dinner’s got some high fat, high sodium, dairy in it! (i.e. steak, loaded potatoes, bread and butter)!

There’s no way my mom would have wanted me weeding her garden! I don’t know good plants from bad any more than Jason does.

Relax, Andy, regardless of the circumstances.

What could go wrong?

That looks like a handful of poison ivy.

Shoulda worn gloves, Jason!

It’s easy to tell which are weeds. The tomatoes are easier to pull up.

Remember the last time Paige cooked dinner? She might actually give Andy a run for her money!

It would have been easier to give Andy some JD on the rocks for her to relax. Overdo it and she’ll miss the whole day!

If it wasn’t Mother’s Day I would put a totk comic
