Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for November 22, 2023

Scooch over, Nat — there’s a line forming.

hmm she sounds allergic, not sensitive.

Well, Natalie, you’re not the only one who feels this way about a big family Thanksgiving.

Well…I feel I’m too good for this world and I shouldn’t have to do housework. Sigh…

Stop following the news!

I don’t think I get this.

“Mama said there’d be days like this, there’d be days like this my mama said”

It’ll be Ok, Natalie. While you’re in there, could you hand me that package of cookies?

Good morning Balladeers!

For Natalie, when one door closes, another door… closes also…

I don’t blame Natalie for hiding.

Natalie needs some time to her shelf.

This comic upsets my sensitivities

Looks like early onset dementia. Or old-timers disease.

Okay Stanley.. what did you say that put her in that cupboard? Put your foot in your mouth again didn’t you. You must know by now that when she asks “does this make me look fat”.. the standard response is “no, you look lovely”. Elementary stuff Stan.

You can hide but you can’t run.

My cat does this periodically. Sometimes you just need a quiet place to chill. Cupboards are perfect, although they do take a little clearing out.

It gets really exciting, if you have not noticed that your cat is “missing” and open that cupboard door at eye level. :)

“Expired, expired, expired . . . "

:)

Under the bed, with the cats, where it is safe.

That’s better than holing up in the liquor cabinet.

Or is it?

natalie’s found herself a cupboard cubbyhole…

Good to know it isn’t just me!

Can you tell me if we have peanut butter Natalie?
