Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for May 06, 2020

has Petey EVER had best work for which he has been praised?

Why would she say all that stuff?

Backhanded Encouragement is 1 of Viola’s fortes!

How long does Crazy Hair Day last? Petey’s starting to freak me out.

Viola is a tad insecure so she feels better when she puts our boy down….. On the other hand she probably has a crush on him and its her awkward way of telling Petey “Hey I like you!”

My older sister was much like that girl. :P

my piece was once put in the showcase, but way up top, way above we children of eye level, so no one I considered my friends could see it.

What are these “pieces”? I don’t remember ever making one in elementary school, let alone having a display case.

Isn’t she imaginary. So she is his alter ego!

my 4th-grade artwork was hung in the local mall; 50 years later I’m still bent someone took it and I never got to see it again.

And who might the female on the right be? Ms. Dream-crusher?

this happened to me once. I thought for sure the display would be my clever little clay dinosaur but it turned out the teacher chose a boring clay pot. I think the dinosaur broke (at least that is what I told myself)

Girls can be so mean.. But, Petey did his best to recover with his “it’s not my best work”

The only place I ever found my art work was the waste basket.

I always had a suspicion that Petey would get involved with pot…

Very supportive of you, Viola. Now, go away. Petey needs some recovery time, alone….
