Hey! I’m a supervisor now; and I think I oughta resent that! :)
Evie’s love life is doing just fine. However, she has to balance her love life with her family life, and Ms. Eliot has t keep up the suspense.
But I really don’t know why some people read the cartoons they do; when it’s nothing but frustration, I leave and don’t go back – even left one editorial cartoon that I like, because the comments were just too full of vitriol.

“An old man / woman loved is flowers in winter.”
Here’s wishing Evie and Arnold roses, roses all the way!

For all of us “older” folks. I just saw the movie “Quartet”. I highly recommend it.

Really? More ponderous than the endless line of 20 and 30 somethings in the media doing their endless remakes of Midsummer Night’s Dream?

I wonder….Will Evie be back in time for the Paris baby sitting stint???
edward thomas Premium Member about 11 years ago
Maybe that’s why she’s leaving now. See you after Paris!

Grown children? That’s the first we’ve heard of them. Earlier when Evie asked him about his family, he said “the world is my family.”
