I think Fraz’s last statement sums up most kids perfectly. I used to have a Boss like that. She never explained herself properly then she’d get upset when you didn’t follow her directions. You had to be a mind reader to work with her. Or maybe that’s just the fact that she was a woman?
I’m Fraz in the middle panel. My wife will ask me if I can help her when I’m in the middle of doing something. I would begin to get stressed out with that question because it wasn’t clear what she wanted. After nearly 16 years of marriage, I finally figured out how to resolve the issue. I told her it would be nice if she could say what it is that she needs help with when she asks her question. I need that specifics, ma’am. Can I stop what I am doing for a minute to help, then yes. Stop for two hours? Nope, but I can help later. π
99.99% of the time it’s one minute items but my silly brain still stresses out about it.
I guess it’s good that my kids are all grown . . . but did I mention my kid is going to have a kid?
As for the giveaways, I no longer teach. I run a business to sell lessons and more to teachers. These giveaways are promotionals to operate my business. I’m a small part of the large amounts of money given away. It can be anywhere from $5 – $25 a pop. Also, this particular giveaway has gotten me 129 additional followers, so far. Hopefully it will lead to sales that are greater than the initial investment.

If I was your boss I’d tell you exactly what to do. Get to work! Stop talking! Make more money!

Men are like little children and always need very specific instructions. I’m surprised your wife has put up with you all those years!
Have you seen my gravatar photo? I’m CUTE! That’s a good enough reason to stay with me π
Well I guess that is one good reason! Your picture reminds me of a little Wombie around here.
I think Fraz is right where he’s suppose to be for his age.
I’d rather be on a pirate ship!
Go to your beach house. You have a pirate ship in a marina .
Oh boy! I’m coming right down!
Fraz has the gift of seeing logical loopholes. He would make a fine lawyer or perhaps a cartoonist.
A lawyer makes lots of money so that might be a good job!

Maybe I’ll have someone new to play with then!
You do a very good job promoting your TpT store. That’s a lot of additional followers for one event!
Also, being a teacher is a lot of work and frustration!
That’s what my teacher always says to me!
The lights are about to go out real quick!
That’s ok I’ve got a flashlight!
It does come natural to you for sure. We all know that.
Have a fabulous day and week. π
I’m a natural!
Ah Fraz. When you keep digging you only get deeper, man…
But I’m just telling her the truth!
We must tap into our natural gifts, lol!! My kids mistake ‘go to bed’ and ‘go to sleep’ too. π
Yeah Twink said go to bed not go to sleep!
Fraz, you’re also gifted at coming up with clever and good logic. π
Twink doesn’t seem to like my logic.
