Frank had to switch over to reading a book because their 40 year – old Curtis Mathes television went out. When your 40 year old Curtis Mathes television goes out before the program you are watching is over, it is called “Curtis interruptus”.
.
Now that Frank has had to put his book down, they need to do what Brad and Toni did back on February 11, 2017: “Strip budget Planning”.
Would have been cuter pre-Corona; I figure most Folx are 1/2 way through all of their back logged paperwork, or something else they’ve been putting off!
They have two children; those wills should have been made before the first one was ever born and updated through the years. Estate planning should have started the minute they bought a house.
I think that originally Nancy was not the great master of irony in the Degroot family. She learned it from her husband and overtook him. Poor Frank. He seems so disappointed.
Do your will! Do it! Especially if you have young kids and don’t want them dumped in the foster system until the government decides who they think should take them. If you don’t have young kids, you may keep your family from ripping itself apart trying to get what you have.

I guess Nancy is showing what it takes to get Frank out of that chair.

You think your wife is just going to offer you sex out of the blue, and you’ve been married how long?

Yes, nothing gets a man more excited than talking about taxes, finances, investments and drawing up a will. Hose me down, somebody!!! ;-)

Frank has the demeanor of an actuarial accountant.

If you torment your sex-starved partner with false hope like this, you deserve to get cheated on. Sorry not sorry.

Gee.
I’m very disappointed.
I thought Nancy was going to make Frank move something very heavy up two flights of stairs.
Because “it looks cute, there.”

This is where Frank gives her a big hug and says “I’ll take you up on the first part of your statement and we’ll do the rest later”
At least that’s what I would do!

That may get him up out of the chair but it really is not the way to focus his mind on those tasks.

Hold your nose and jump in, bub. Work now, play later. Maybe this is what gets her motor running.

So they never had a will before, not even once Luann was born?

Gee, just think; if they went over to Federal sales tax instead of an income tax Frank wouldn’t have any fun.

Why wouldn’t they have a will made out by now? We made our out after the birth of our first child.

A few months ago Nancy got Frank to perk up when she said that she was feeling “kinky.” Turned out to be her muscles, not her sex drive.

I think they could “Make Out” in the bedroom for some rumble action on the bed.

Nancy exerts her Household Headship over outnumbered Frank (he’s only one man against One Woman)! The poor boy can but lament his fate!

Frank, just put your hand up her shirt and she’ll forget all about wanting to make out a will and just want to make out.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Pru has another whole week to get her teeny, tiny, little butt out of town. We all know a lot can happen in 18 panels.
