Negatives And Positives
It’s always good to be positive, even when it’s freezing out.
Artist Debbie Adams helped Winky achieve his doctorate of Chocolatology, something Winky has prepared for his entire life. The original artwork of Winky’s Doctor of Chocolatology can be seen on Debbie’s blog.
As we never ever get snow where I live, I see that as a positive, Winky.
Could you send some of your heat this way? That’d be a positive!
Winky it’s freezing where I am too 🙁
Loon is stealing all our heat!
She must be…it’s freezing here too!
Give us back some heat, Loon! You’ve got more than you need!
Yes Loon we need some
heat too you know? 🙂 lol
Maybe she’s holding it hostage and is going to make us pay for it!
OK, OK, you can have the heat …. all of it!!!!
Thanks, we need it! Is shipping included?
Yes Loon we want everything including wine gums, pancakes and spambo wambo burgers 🙂 Winky and me always like seconds too don’t we Winky 🙂
Seconds or maybe thirds or fourths. Actually, an endless supply is better.
I’m going to have them shipped separately…. don’t want no melted wine gums now do we?
Definitely not! That would be a disaster! Still waiting for your heat, too. It’s way below freezing here!
Hey Loon you beat me to
it again I see, how wicked
of you my great friend 🙂
You have to get up in the wee hours of the morning to get here before Loon.
Being in a good time zone makes it a lot easier to be first.
Yes I will use matchsticks to
keep my eye lids open next time 🙂
Just don’t light them!
Tsk, tsk, Geoff, you have to get up real early to catch this loon 😉
I sleep with one eye open 🙂
I guess I better not try to pinch your chocolates, then.
Or anything else or she might catch us 🙁
Yeah, Loon’s pretty quick in the morning!
More like midday 😉
That’s what time I get up!
Yes well I am working on that already so watch this Space, what Space, did someone mention a Space? 🙂 lol
I’m a space expert.
On the negative side, I spent 45 minutes this morning digging a pathway through the snow so I could get my car off the driveway and on to the road
On the plus side, it was good exercise for me !
Hey Duncan, don’t eat the yellow snow… just saying 😉
Don’t eat snow, eat chocolate!
Yeuuuugh Loon that’s horrid 🙁
Just saying Geoff 😉
That doesn’t sound like a lot of fun. I’d rather exercise eating.
Yes, and the same for me too my friend 🙂
Want to exercise some pancakes!
I wouldn’t mind getting a workout with a few, Winky!
There’s enough for everyone! Twink’s pancake machine is working at top speed!
Glad to hear it. I’ll have a stack of chocolate chip please! 🙂
Sure! And you can help yourself to all the yummy toppings we have!
Thank you, Winky! I guess I’ll top it with some butter and syrup….Mmm.
Yeah, me too. 🙄
I like maple and blueberry syrup! With pecans and fudge and whipped cream!
I’ll have an order of that same, Fraz!
You’ll like it Dink! It’s good!
It was good, but I’m still hungry!
You can have as many stacks as you want! And you can try different toppings on them all!
I’ll take a triple stack this time, just to make sure I stay full till my afternoon snacks. Oh, and all the topping on it too.
That’s they way I like my pancakes! With a milkshake or two, too!
Funny, was vacuuming and thought I heard a Wombie wanting a milkshake. So I stopped what I was doing and made a great big batch for all of you! 🙂
Thanks, Deb! You must be the milkshake Queen! The best milkshake maker anywhere!
Thanks Winky! I’m just glad you like to drink them!
I couldn’t let them go to waste!
They get kind of icky when they melt and get warm.
You don’t have to worry about that with me and Dink around!
You two are the fastest milkshake drinkers. Every time I try to drink one fast I get a brain freeze.
You probably need to practice more. It takes training to be able to keep up with us!
I don’t need any practice…let’s gulp a few.
I’ll race you!
Okay…glup!…I’m done!
I can’t believe you beat me!
I didn’t I was just finishing the one I had that was already half gone.
So are you ready? Mark, get set, go!
Gulp, gulp, gulp, gulp…
That was a lot closer, but you still beat me! I must be getting old.
Your not getting old, Winky…you too young for that still. I think my shakes are in a smaller glass than yours.
Aw, you’re just trying to be nice, Dink. You beat me fair and square!
Do I win a prize?
A chocolate trophy. I bet it won’t last long!
Oops…is that what that was!
I guess chocolate trophies aren’t a good idea for Wombies. But they’re so yummy!
I thought it was a tasty idea!
Maybe I’ll just make the chocolate trophy bigger next time so it’ll last a little longer.
Maybe I should make one too. After all, the odds of you winning the next milkshake contest are pretty high! I think you have a little more room you your tank.
I do have an over-sized tank!
Mine is getting there! 🙂 I can hardly wait till it does too…That way I can eat for longer periods of time. 🙂
It take a lot of training to be able to eat as much as I do, but I think you can do it!
All the practice is fun though!
It sure is!
Deb I will work out all the
time for some of your pancakes 🙂
3 pancakes, 30 sit-ups, counting by 10’s. 🙂
Dink, sign out when I talk to Geoff.
That’s the way I work out!
Lol…I kind of thought you did! Ready to do a set of 50?…10, 20, 30, 40, 50…feel the burn.
I do! That’s more situps than I normally do.
Maybe you could reduce it to 10. 😉
I should be able to handle that. If I have an extra cookie or two.
I got 60 cookies here for ya…sit up for each one…Hmm, maybe you should count by 30’s.
I hope you mean the situps and not the cookies! I want to count the cookies by ones!
Yes pancakes for everyone,
MY TREAT 🙂 Yes you too Loon 😉
Yay! Twink’s pancake machine just ran out!
I’ll have some Geoff! 🙂
Another batch coming right up,
do you want some too Fraz? 🙂
Deb here’s some of those scones
that I promised and here are the
extra large wine gums for Binky 🙂
Mmmm, yummy, just what I needed too. Now I don’t have to fix breakfast! 🙂
Of course I do! I always want pancakes! And yours are really yummy!
I’ll give winky some slack. Cold weather can be depressing at times. 😛
Especially when it’s cold enough to freeze your toes off!
Yes and if you have a big nose that doesn’t help either, not that I am saying that you and me have big noses, but it’s definitely a fact 🙂
The cold is hard on our noses sometimes! Fraz found that out before.
https://www.comics.wombania.com/2011/01/frozen-nose-fraz/
I remember! 🙂
It seems like yesterday!
I totally agree! 😉
🙂
It’s a really funny cartoon that one Peter 🙂
It wasn’t very funny for me!
Well you found your nose but
is it a bit wobbly now or what? 🙁
No, Binky was able to fix it back on. It’s as good as new!
I almost always feel like giving winter the cold-shoulder, too!
🙂
I do too!
And Me 🙂
We may need to all move in with Loon.
I hope Loon has a big yard to dig in!
I really like your technique of combining your art with the snow scene…excellent work! 🙂
Thanks, Deb. It’s pretty easy to use a photo for a background.
After looking at if few, I think I understand how to do it…I’ll have to try my hand at it sometime. 🙂
You can import or paste the picture into a drawing file, and then add another layer on top which you do your drawing on. If you want to add a picture after you do a drawing, the drawing should be done on a layer rather than the background.
I think I’ll mess around with that today…thanks PDM! 🙂
Looks like Tink is doing the talking for me today. 🙄
Wombies can be quite helpful in the art department as well.
I noticed that about them too. 🙂
As long as you don’t allow them to take over. Which they’re apt to do.
Tell me about it! 🙂 🙂
🙂
Hey I might have a go at that technique Peter, then I can email you the results along with any new drawings that I doodle with 🙂 If you like I mean 🙂
That would be great, Geoff. I’m sure you could come up with something interesting.
Great… I will try some new drawings soon and email them to you, you never know thay might leap out at you straight off the page 🙁 It could be risky but I know that you have some Zombie traps left over from my realm, and they should do the trick 🙂
I guess I’d better activate my anti-zombie email filters just to be safe.
It’s never negative around here. I am sooo ready for a snow day!
Come up north! Too many negatives up here!
I will just grab my skis 🙂
Winky gets a doctorate of Chocolatology
Binky gets a doctorate of Scatalatology
I believe you must be mistaking your accomplishments for mine.
What is Scatalatology?
I believe I will let the expert Mr. Bearman answer that one.
The definition is that bad, huh. 😉
I wonder what I will get Bearman? 🙂
If I were you, I wouldn’t ask.
-20C here. I want to move somewhere warm. Anyone want to adopt me? 😛
Maybe Loon will. It’s in the 40s in Australia!
Visiting Australia is on my bucket list. What do you say, Loon? 😉
We could trade places with her for a month! She can come up here to get out of the heat, and we can go down there to get out of the cold!
That sounds very fair to me. Think she’ll go for it? 🙂
I hope so! I’m already packed!
I have packed a suitcase too 🙂
So when are we leaving?
From the looks of that picture I’d rather not know the temperature. It’s just not a positive. Bwahahahahahaha.
Have a terrific day filled with chocolate and please stay warm. 🙂
It’s definitely a hot chocolate kind of day!
It’s pretty negative outside. So much so that I hope the neighbors aren’t mad that I didn’t shovel snow off the sidewalk…
I’ll shovel your snow for wine gums!
At zero degrees they don’t talk about anything.
Chris would like that temperature then. Quietness in the house would be bliss for him
I’m setting all the thermometers to zero then, regardless of the temperature! Thanks for the great idea, guys!
You’re welcome Chris. Enjoy the peace & quiet
Thanks, I will!
It’s nice to look at but we don’t fully understand snow humor in south Texas.
I guess you have to be a Northerner, then. Real winters come with freezing temperatures and deep deep snow!
They say you should always stay positive. I guess it keeps you warmer
That’s why I’m staying inside! It’s not positive out there!
Poor Winky… it’s way in the negatives here too, but I only know Farenheit and then we always add windchill so all day it felt like -25F or lower. Sorry, Winky.
So I stayed in the house (we didn’t get snow with the cold, thank goodness).
However, let it be known that after the HOT HOT HOT summer we had in 2012, I promised I would not complain about cold this winter. So I am NOT complainijng. I’m just sharing!!!
stay warm everybody!!
🙂
janet
That’s too cold to even think! And I have enough trouble thinking in summer. You need some hot hot chocolate and some hot pancakes to warm up your tummy!
Helloooooooooo BuddhaKat
I hope that you are enjoying
your evening and getting in
a comfy seat? 🙂 How do you
mean why? Well I am baking
some fresh scones and I want
You, Fraz, Winky, Binky, Twink
and Chris to sample a few 🙂
They are Yummytasticwicked
I thought I smelled something! We’ll be right over!
I have just made an extra batch just for you, also some fudge sweets as a try out for your new recipes 🙂
And they’re all good! Thanks, Geoff!
I brought some chocolate for you.
Winky, you poor baby!! I get depressed when it’s not cold!! I love cold weather!! We don’t get enough of it here!
If I could send you our cold weather I would! It’d make both of us happy!
Helloooo Itpen315, barb
I hope your evening has been
on the jovial side my friend 🙂
Here have some chocolates…
Fixing this problem could be fixed with lots of chocolate and coco. Or chocolate and lots of rockets. Either way is good.
I’ll go for the chocolate and coco. That fixes just about everything.
On the + side, at least Winky is not a Vampire!! W.C.C.
I might be a chocolate vampire since I like to bite chocolate so much.
Hey, that’s a positive.
But the temperature’s not!
Cute!
Cold!
This is how I look at it until I open the door!
Don’t open the door! It’s too cold!
I guess he really got the cold shoulder from that one. 🙂
I swish winter had a warm shoulder instead.
Winky, you should eat some chocolate 🙂
It would cheer you up.
Love the drawing by the way!
I did have some chocolate and it did cheer me up! It’s still cold outside but I don’t care!
Ahhh I’m glad you did. 🙂
It’s cold here too. I hate Winter.
I bet your winter is a lot warmer than our winter, though!
Hi Cha 🙂
Hope you are
having fun 🙂
Hi Geoff. Not having that much fun lately but as long as I can visit my favorite blogs, I’m happy 😉 I’ve been trying to visit yours but it doesn’t work… 🙁
I’ll send you extra-special Wombie truffles (made with dark Belgian chocolate)!
Good grief, where are my manners!
Thank you for posting Winky’s drawing…I’m very honored that you put in in your posting and in the Fan Art Gallery. 🙂
You’re welcome, as always. I could add a Debbie Adams Wing to the art gallery.
If you get enough artwork from everyone, that might not be a bad idea. 🙂
Thanks again! 🙂
I love the snow. We don’t get it every year over here in holland.
I like the snow when I’m inside looking out at it.
Winky, have you made any new medical discoveries?
No, but I’ve made some chocolate ones.
Oh, that’s right, what was I thinking? You got your PHD in chocotology.
I can tell you anything you want about chocolate! First of all, it’s yummy!
and second?
Second, dark chocolate is good for you! It’s proven scientifically! And stomachly, too!
Yes, and they taste pretty good too. Though I still prefer milk chocolate! 🙂
I prefer any chocolate I can get my hands on!
Geez… talk about a chilly reception!
I definitely didn’t feel any warmth!
He’s positively negative about his positives!
I’m positive I don’t like negatives!
lol … winky is having PMS even though he is a boy 😉
I don’t think so!
I am glad to be here, but Geoff…you’re killing me. I still can’t get onto your other site. Request granted per email, but I can’t get in.
I guess he just doesn’t like you. Actually, Geoff’s new site is down again, so none of us can get in anymore.
I take it that Wombies don’t like the crisp crunch of snow under their paws. I would have thought they’d like pelting passing cars with snowballs! 😉
Love the idea of the Chocolatology Doctorate – I think my wife has earned hers!
Winky just wants some warmer weather after it has been so cold for so long.
The Chocolate Degree was the idea and work of Debbie Adams.
