Weightlifting Skin Care
Soft, supple hands come at a price.

Our blogger friend Faythe from the Grammy Mouse Tails made a treat-filled Wombat Day graphic for 2015. Faythe’s original post It is Wombat Day October 22 can be seen on her blog.

You lucky you didn’t get hurt, Winky!
I was! The floor kind of got hurt, though.
Awe, then you deserve a king size chocolate bar. Lets make that a whole box of them!
I always have room for a couple of chocolate bars!
Here’s another box for later, or eat them now while there fresh.
Okay, I ate them now!
Then here’s some for later. 😉
Thanks! I’ll save them for watching a movie tonight.
Love the Faythe’s, artwork for Wombat day!
Faythe always does something nice for Wombat Day.
Yes she does, and this one I really like!
It’s nice and chocolaty.
🙂
Never mind, Winky. I’m sure that large hole in the kitchen floor will come in handy for something.
I could use it as a secret food tunnel!
Sage advice. Bwahahahahahahaha.
Have a terrific day. 🙂
Sometimes I’m wise!
Never put on hand cream at all.
But then my hands would shrivel up and maybe fall off!
Greetings on Womat Day. Hope Winky does not get discouraged. Deserves a extra large helping of cake and chocolate. 🍰🍫🍫
I’ll take the cake and chocolate, thanks! And happy Wombat Day!
A lot of damage may occur. 😉
It might have already!
Just stick to lifting chocolate Winky- it’s safer that way. 🙂
Faythe’s image is very nice!
Lifting chocolate sounds a lot yummier too!
Clever cartoon. I’ll have to remember that if I’m ever inclined to lift.
Yeah, hand cream doesn’t help your grip.
I agree, stick to lifting chocolate….with cream
I think I will!
I know Faythe’s blog. How sweet that she put up honorary treats. 🙂
Faythe always enjoys Wombat Day.
Yes that’s really good advice
Winky and definitely something
to remember 🙂
Poor Chris nearly jumped
out of his socks with fright 🙂
Some things you learn the hard way.
That’s a fantastic Wombat Day
treat from our lovely friend Faythe,
and did I see some sweets on it?
Mmm I could just eat those right
now but I think Fraz beat me to it,
but there will always be next year 🙂
Yeah we kinda ate all those sweets long ago! But Faythe was nice to give them to us.
Have a great Friday Peter
and keep making us smile
with your brilliant cartoon
drawing skills 🙂
Thanks, Andro. You have a good weekend, too.
Chalk Winky, it’s chalk you meant to put on. And wait! You were lifting weights?
Chalk is what you’re supposed to use? Okay, next time I’ll try that.
And yeah, I was trying to build up my chocolate lifting ability.
Spot me!
Okay, I’ve got my helmet on!
I’ve been working hard and need a chocolate break!
I’ll send you an emergency chocolate care package by Fraz Express!
Sorry for the delayed thank you. My wombies were keeping me busy. I had locked up the chocolate in my personal vault, and they were behaving suspiciously around me.
I guess I should send you a shipment of chocolate for your Wombies, too.
Oh, please do, Winky!
It’s on its way!
That was fast! The delivery just arrived this morning! Thank you, Winky!
You’re welcome! I hope it’ll keep your Wombies in chocolate for a while.
Hand cream is the reason why I never lift weights. Ever.
I probably shouldn’t either, but I wanted to improve my chocolate lifting ability.
That is a good reason Winky, a real good reason
I thought so!
Soft & supple is for women, real weight lifters have hands hard & calloused
But my hands get so dry I think they’re going to fall off!
I never use hand cream before lifting weights. Wait, I don’t lift weights! 😀
That sounds like a good solution to me!
