Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for November 05, 2012

Two pounds shouldn’t make that much of a difference. But any excuse to go shopping, right Cathy?We’re giving away most of our leftover candy to the troops. And my kids still have enough to last over 2 months if they have a piece every day (which they don’t)! Good morning, Susan, Shyygirl and the other early Cathy birds!Hello to the rest of the clan… GsMom, Aaron, KFG, Billy, rgcviper, lindz.coop, hendelca, Mona, serenasakitty, kittycatpawsare, gmforde, soonergal, mollie, AnonaMona, Bronzepony, simpsonfan2, legaleagle, catsarge10, BJIllistrated, ncalifgirl58, Molly mcgee, Teresa, mar mar in MI, SplendensPluviaNemus and all the other Cathy nuts rolling around here today!Aaron and Billy – I hope all is well with you guys!Have a great Monday everyone!

You were supposed to hand it out Cathy! My girls gave me Halloween candy, I gave it to their dad.

Good morning lightenup, Susan, GsMom, Aaron, Dr.Billy, lindz.coop, Anona, legaleagle, ncalifgirl and the rest!

Two pounds can be just enough to push you into a larger size. :-(

2 pounds is enough to put me over the edge!

She meant she ate 2 pounds of leftover candy, not gained 2 pounds. I was just browsing in the clothing store the other day looking for something to cover the, ummm…… ripples.

Yes but 2 pounds of candy seems to be capable of adding 4 pounds to the body! Good afternoon Cathyites!

Golly, two pounds of candy? Sounds like lots of fun snacking is in order (with a lot of hikes in the invigorating fall weather)!

Good afternoon hendelca, SUSAN NEWMAN, Shyygirl27, lightenup, GretchensMom, scaredycatsarge10, Veridian, mollie05 and all other visitors to the Cathy comic!

If Cathy’s looking for something to help cover up the added weight thanks to pigging out on all the Halloween treats, then I’d say the cloaks/shawls/capes/sweatsuits department at the mall is the right place to be!

Aaron & Dr. Billy: That last time any of us heard from you was Friday, October 19th — 17 days ago. We’re all very worried about you! Please check in soon to let us know the both of you and LMB are doing okay!!!!!

Hi Cathyites!! Only 2 lbs — Wow — we had about 4 lbs left over — and it all went into my hubby’s car and (presumably) to his office. Hey, he went out on Halloween, knowing we only ever have 10-20 kids show up, and bought it all (because it was on sale). So he can dispose of it all.

Annnnd … the [eye-roll] should just about do it once again.

We all miss you Aaron & Dr.Billy & LMB hope we hear from you guys soon. Be well and safe. Hi to my cathy family hope all had a good monday?

Whoops! You all read it better than I did – 2 pounds of candy (not weight) is right! That’s what happens when I read comics first thing in the morning (I’m definitely not a morning person!). :-)Thanks for going back and figuring out when we heard from Aaron and Billy, GretchensMom! This is so unlike them, and I’m getting worried! I keep telling myself that every time I used to get worried that it ended up being nothing and they told me not to worry so much. But they usually told me in a day or so, not 17! Plus, they didn’t warn us that anything was going on, did they? :-(
