I drew all of these comics in pencil, and I have only recently started to ink them (hence the variance in quality on the pages I drew in ball point pen). I thought I had enough of a buffer to be able to keep a month ahead in inked pages but, alas, these posts have caught up. Hopefully this little glimpse into the future is a balm for your disappointment in me.

Walks with the kids though out the pandemic were always an interesting adventure. There were also a lot of days of overworking around the house because we just had to stay busy.

Both of these experiences were really scary for me. I was getting the hardware for the skate ramp and took the kids with me, all the time second guessing my decision making as a responsible adult. I think this was the first time I encountered just how much separation there was between how I understood COVID-19 and how others understood it.

The bike accident was the first time I realized how frightening a dentist or ER visit would be. That was the end of us being able to ride or skate in the parking lot of the apartment complex next to our house.

Return of the pen here. I am proud of the laundry fights as a diversion in lockdown. Couldn’t go to the bouncy house, but I think laundry fights hold up as a substitute.
