Drabble by Kevin Fagan for July 09, 2022

Sweet

Let me see now. Here in Boston, Halloween candy arrives at stores in August, Christmas stuff after Halloween, Valentine’s Day candy after Christmas, and Easter goodies in the dead of winter.

A guy on the radio a couple of hours ago ended his show by describing the “perfect summer day”: the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawnmower is broken.

The weather may be “warm” where you are, Norm…here it’s been hot and it’s been so dry that I had to rely on Robb Armstrong over at “JumpStart” to remind me of what rain was!

Buy chocolate, sugar, eggs, gelatin, and nuts and make your own.

This year is really going by fast!

The stores are late in getting their Christmas stuff out this year.

♪♫ It’s the most wonderful tiiiiime of the yeeeeaar! ♫♪

That’s not good, that’s not good at all…when is this character going to have a heart attack?

Plus the back-to-school stuff is on the shelves.

I work at Dollar General and I expect our Halloween candy to be put out sometime THIS MONTH

Go Dodgers!

It is too hot where I live and I don’t like baseball. Nothing good about July.

They know they need to feed your need.

And Ice Hockey seems to stay year-round!!

The “haulers” on utube are hauling Holiday stuff already. The stores actually have Halloween, TDay, and Christmas decor, etc. Unbelievable!

With that belly he probably has diabetes, not good.

Does the thought of Halloween keep your mind off the heat at this point of summer, Ralph?

I got a catalog today in the mail and yes, it was all fall and Halloween stuff. I live in Florida, we don’t even have an autumn season, really.
