Busy, busy, busy! You and Irving need to take a deep breath and start over again…why don’t you try to experience the other person’s to-do list…that way you’ll at least betogether! ;)

Ah….if both of you are not willing to give up something to be with the other….forget the relation ship…just spend more time with your dogs…….

Most of the Sunday things look like they can be done together, when you want it, you make it work. If my honey and I can find alone time with five children at home, anyone can.
Good morning Cathy clan!

I agree, QuietStorm! If you want to get together, you’ll make time! Most of those things on their “busy” schedule can be postponed or rearranged.Good morning, Cathy clan!

Wait! I don’t see any plans for Saturday night. Perfect!
Gretchen's Mom about 10 years ago
What’s wrong with these two anyhow?!? It’s not rocket science, for the love of Pete!!! They can see each other at least 5 nights a week: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday! She can join him at the gym for weight training on Monday and Friday, he can join her [at the gym, Y, or wherever she goes] for Yoga on Tuesdays and Thursdays and then there’s Saturday night where neither one appears to be doing anything. If they really want to see each other, then they can absolutely make it work — they just have to be ready and willing [as well as able] to do it. As the saying goes: “If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you’ll find an excuse.”
Hi, rgcviper!
Hello and Happy Tuesday, fellow “Cathy” fans. Hope everyone’s having a really nice day today.

Looks like my schedule – except most times are filled with ‘work’. BUT, when my wife and I want to do something together the schedule gets changed. When my daughters come home the schedule is scrapped in favour of time with them – something I should have done a whole lot more of before they were old enough to leave home. (regrets of a workaholic who has learned his lesson). Unfortunately I know families who’s kids have this kind of a problem trying to get together with friends. Sad commentary on our over-scheduled lives.

I still miss Susan Newman.

Maybe this is what they mean by older singles being “set in their ways.” Change one of the optionals like “bill paying” or “groceries” — give it a new slot.

Well, at least Cathy took care of the [eye-roll] for us. I can relate to his one all too well, though.
When I e-mailed GoComics to ask about Susan, the response said that they didn’t comment on individual accounts. So, I received no news. We miss you, Susan.
HI, MOM. Hello, “Cathy” Clan.
