Maybe something about being honest

You’re wondering why she doesn’t divorce you?

you painted yourself into a corner, Earl

Even the cat is giving him a LOOK.

What Earl wanted to say is “Opal, I’m here for you 100%.”

That’s going to be me in a couple of years!

Earl next time write it down ! A long memory is a short pencil.

NOOOOO! NOT NOW! Not when I trying to tell Opal Happy Mother’s Day……

His train of thought left without him!

“Hon, you’re a pain in the a##, but you’re my pain in the a##! Love you, Happy Mother’s Day!”

Happy Mother’s Day ?

…but I show up every day, man!

Opal is close to finishing his thought with some more of his shortfalls! ;o]

but we are meant for each other?

Actually, I think this one is rather touching. Sometimes, people love each other each knowing themselves and the others are imperfect.

I was once, for certain, but she’s now 100% with the Lord.

“but, I deserve to sit on the couch too!”

“In you, Opal, I really feel like I’ve married my equal!”

And it was going so well. You will think of the rest of it ……eventually.

“…but I can’t remember your age.”

“Kiss me, you fool!”

Sing it, Willie: “Little things I should have said and done I just never took the time – you were always on my mind…”

Fluffy is like, “No, you ARE useless, old man. Now go away, I’m tryinta’ sleep!!!”

That pretty much sums it up, Earl.

True confessions.

Could have been the words of my hubsand, I mean if he says things like that, what he says is he couldn’t do without me-I take that as cookin, cleaning, laundry and things like that. He’s the one that asked me to marry him, not me so I must be the chump to agree. Not all bad though.

Really, who is?

But I sure do love it when you fix me a snack!

So many roads. So many detours. So many choices, Earl went down a dead end.

But I’m all you’ve got, so deal with it.
