    They are all laudable goals. (We have pickleball in my housing development.)

    Godt nytt år!

    Resolve to listen closer, react with care, reflect with compassion, and open your heart.

    I don’t make resolutions, I will continue to do my best to serve my God to the best of my feeble, fallible ability, to be kind and gracious to others and to love, protect and cherish my wife. And to enjoy FurBabies. and the other comics here.

    Take it one day at a time. Slow and steady but be prepared for detours and distractions. Keep calm and carry on.

    My resolution is to make sure my cats are thoroughly spoiled.

    Sirius is a good boy, Floof is perfect, Stella and Shawm are training to be therapy dogs! All wonderful.

    But I thought Pickleball, which I’ve only read about, was for old folks????

    Sirius is already a good boy. Doesn’t that just melt your heart? And I love that Floof knows she AIN’T a dog, and the parents are therapy dogs in training! Imagine Stella’s entrances…y’all have a lovely New Year (or einen guten Rutsch, as they say in German).

    Pickle ball – isn’t that where Cinderella lost her glass slipper?

    I love Floof’s Bonanza of Boxes – she’s clearly loving that as much as our Akiro is enjoying his winter haul.

    Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in the USA, and it’s very funny. I can only find a cartoon reference to it in a 2015 BABY BLUES series of strips, and most panel cartoonists do not show the characters actually playing the game. I’m an animator, so you will see plenty of dinksandfalafelsanddills. The game’s terms are HILARIOUS. They are also apparently ON THE BANNED LIST HERE. MAKE IT STOP, PLEASE.

    Since my little beagle is a therapy dog, of course I have to comment on the announcement! We look forward to seeing Stella and Shawm at the hospital to do visits with us. They would be excellent therapy dogs for sure.

    When you think about it, ALL dogs are therapy dogs.

    I have a therapy dog. She helps children read at local libraries. Easier to read to her than peers who are more judgmental

    BTW, FWIW, pickleball is a lot LOUDER than tennis. It’s because the paddle is hard, whereas a tennis racket/racquet just has strings, which have bounce to them. But a lot of people (who probably live nearby) dislike pickleball for that reason. Perhaps the tennis folks think they’re more refined. Or maybe they’re just mad because municipalities are turning tennis courts into pickleball courts!
