BOB MAKES A FUNNY (at me)

ok, so here's the background story. 2011, we were to go see son in another state, and I managed to ruin myself right before the trip, trying to move furniture and drag out our Christmas tree the week before we left. So, my hip joint was acutely inflamed and I could hardly move without screaming. So, we ended up having to switch our car rental to a SUV, because I was not able to lower myselft to get into the compact car, but could slide ride across, from a standing position into a SUV. That was ALL of Dec. It was so bad, we considered cancelling that trip (now very glad we didn't, since that was the last time son saw Bob 'normal'). No sooner did I feel better from the month of the hip out, and I stood up and said, "I'm well! Let's go work on the house!" - and I came down with shingles. That was all of January. At this point, I felt like I'd kinda been cheated out of my Christmas, and decided, heck, it looked like Christmas and was cold, I was going to stretch the season and get a little more Christmas out of it, before I let it go. When the shingles were done, I said, "I'm well! Let"s go to the old house and work!" It was February, 2012, and Bob had his stroke. That was 3 months of one thing after the other. The point of this recollection, is that Christmas tree is still standing in the living room (don't use that room much, have TV room). So, I have brought you all this way to show you this:
I LOVED THIS! I hate being in the stores and they have all the trees up and Christmas music playing and the Halloween candy has just went on sale (started about 2 weeks ago). So, I showed Bob this cartoon and said I understood exactly how Batman felt! Bob looked at me, sheepishly, and said, "You're not one to talk! Your Christmas tree STAYS up!"
