Can’t Fool Me!


Cartoon of a boy with a halo. a girl says, “I’m your sister. You can’t fool me!”

The people that love us most are the ones that rarely let us get away with faking it. I tried several times as a kid to get away with a little infraction only to have my siblings blow a whistle on me.

Now that I look back on it, that was a good thing. Too many of us try to get away with things we know in our heart we should never attempt. It can be something moral or a goal you want to attempt, but just find it hard to get started.

If you’re having trouble getting started today, or quitting a bad habit, make an effort to find an accountability partner. Many times, the best accountability partners are the ones that love you the most. They know when you are telling the truth and when your halo is a little crooked.

At the start, you may find it annoying to be called on your little game, but that is just what we need. We all need someone to be honest enough with ourselves to point out the halo is not matching with your attitude.

Call of the Wild

Here’s a rough right out of my sketchbook

My wife and son come back from an extended trip today. I’m hoping she doesn’t think I converted the house to a hermit’s hut. At least I’ve put away my buffalo cap and bermuda shorts. That should help tidy up the place.

Here is an illustration of Cupid and a boy. Cupid is upset because the boy has blocked Cupid’s arrows with a trash can lid.

Cupid’s day is over and alas, there were probably some thwarted plans and proposals yesterday. Here is a hand-drawn cartoon of one of Cupid’s exploits.
