For Better or For worse

as I'm going to be gone for a couple of days but I just felt like I would miss the ongoing story so much after I read the strip today. I know all her strips didn't agree with everyone but she wrote life as it happens. I know some of her older strips will continue to run but even though she wrapped up quite a few story lines today, I will miss it.

Thanks Orchid Werefan and Penn for your comments.

I will think about posting them but probably wouldn't do a long review as I would have to check most of them out of the library

Cady I didn't realize that Lynn had gone though a second divorce. After 32 years of marriage. Boy that's scary. I was worried about my husband dying on me after the funeral I attended this week but divorce would be so much more devastating I think.

Anyhow after checking this out I now realize Lynn is still going to put out a strip but it will be repeats of her old strip with some new elements worked in. More attention will be paid to when Michael meets Deanna in grade school for example. I think she did a good job wrapping up the story lines last Sunday. She sure tackled some controversial topics in her strip over the years.

I don't know why this hit me so hard but I am getting less weepy. The computer is fixed so that will help a bit as I will be able to explore again. I have a whole bunch of books due at the library so I have been trying to read them. I am trying to stay busy. Today I am going to clean my bathrooms so they look less like the service station variety.LOL Thanks for thinking about me.

I did read the first seven earlier this year but then I bottomed out on the slightly gross humor. There are 14 now. I probably could go back to reading them again but I have so many other books I think I would enjoy more right now. I will probably read one of them every once in a while. I really liked her series with Charlotte Hughes -the Full series and I like all her romances. I saw another has been rereleased so will have to watch for it at the library. Funny thing I think I only own one of her books -an old one. Hey here's some more books I could post. I did a lot more reading when I wasn't spending time here on this site but this is more fun. 

I started reading Sue Grafton, A is for Alibi etc and the same thing happened. I read four of them but my husband made it through six. I think there is a reason you read them one at a time. I will go back to Sue Grafton sometime but not sure of Stephanie Plum ones. I have read Jill Churchill, Joanne Fluke, and JoAnna Carl. I have read all of their books but read them as they came out and maybe this is why I like them better. I also read some of the cat mysteries but none lately. I hope you are enjoying your time off. I think I read that you were off but it was when I was on the old computer and it wouldn't always allow me to comment.

Thanks Penn for letting Lynn know where to read the comics online. I would have never been able to post it as I am definitely not able to do neat things like that.

Lynn Johnston put out a compilation every year or so of her comics. For a while I stopped reading her comics as the story about Ellie's mother dying was hitting so very close to home. Then I started again and last winter and spring I read them all over the course of a couple of months. I knew at the time that LJ was thinking of ending her strip but she is keeping it up by bringing out old story lines and adding a bit to them. I will have to see what they work out to be.
