Pickles by Brian Crane for August 22, 2023

Yeah Opal must keep those kidneys flushed out.

I just bought some straws, because it is easier to drink at my desk and read comics with a straw.

Roscoe’s expression again steals the show!

And if she is taking a diuretic, she will be taking many trips to the bathroom.

My mother often told me that if I was feeling “porly” I should get more rest… and pee a lot.

You have now crossed over into the Toilet Zone.

Earl, Be Thankful, she’s not P.O.ed at you

Time to practice those Kegels

Better stay out of her way, Roscoe.

I remember a cold commercial that said “Rest in bed, drink plenty of fluids and take…Except that if you drink plenty of fluids, that cuts into your rest in bed.

Hydration is important!

Opal is apparently waterlogged!

Apparently, that’s one reason so many seniors get UTI’s. They don’t want to go to the bathroom so often or wear Depends, so they don’t drink enough and get dehydrated. Feel free to correct me on this since I really don’t know.

And she left ‘kidney prints’ on the floor all the way.

I AM Opal, lol!

Just remember moderation in all things, Opal…you don’t want to overdo it…

I just love the Precious Roscoe today : )

Psht. Let’s talk “prostate.”

Actually I’m pretty tired of all that human physiology. But looks like no point in complaining.

Water is good for EVERYTHING.!!!!

Drinking lots of water can “stimulate” exercise (taking lots of walks to the bathroom).

Roscoe’s never seen Opal move that fast.

Even Roscoe got that…..

Do you think she has a Stanley? haha!

I quit using straws – too much work carrying them to the ocean for disposal.

Prevents kidney stones.

Roscoe’s reaction is priceless. He knows Earl is in trouble for that remark.

I’m a 68 year old man, and I don’t have to drink much water to wear a hole in the carpet running to the loo.

And the old gal’s nickname returns to Flo.

I swear since I turned 65, gotta go all the time! Along with the water i drink, the wind doesn’t help either! ;^)

“uhh..” Last longer?

cmon earl, install a moving sidewalk for your sweetheart

Lots of exercise.

Drink when you ar ethirsty. Unless you’re walking around hatless in the Outback, your body will remind you to drink.

It was easier to keep hydrated when I was working than since I retired. The company provided plenty of free beverages to keep at my desk.

I just keep a water glass nearby.
