Now That's Not Right.

Okay, I admit that maybe Timmothy got his idea for this perticular strip by my acting like Joe in it. Some days I feel like I'm the world's punching bag.

Of course when that is my attitude I'm just looking for sympathy and it rarely works. That being said whining can be a good release as I usually catch on that my whining is actually ridiculous and then I can smile again.

I'm putting this post up following my recent chat with "the Tax Man". Oh woe is me... not really, the truth is I'm very relieved to get it all done.

I have found that when I'm in a whining mood the best thing to do is to enter into a prayer of thanks. I've mentioned the song Count You Blessing One By One. Get on YouTube next time you are full of self pity and give it a spin... you will come out of your funk for sure.

Do you enjoy the cartoons written by my son (Timmothy N. Timm) which I use as a springboard to write my daily posts? His strip, Titus & Philemon, has run in two newspapers for years as well as being printed in my blog every day. Titus & Philemon (pronounced Phi - Lee -Man) are guinea pigs. Their owner is Joe. Timmothy has never repeated a joke/comic strip in the 12 years he has been writing it. He has never copied another strip, such as Peanuts or Garfield. You can follow Timmothy on FB as Titus & Philemon and you can also check him out on Instagram as Instagram.com/titus and philemon/ .

Baby does that when we give her a new rawhide bone Nina Hollander, Broker . She wants to know where she can burry it in the house or if I will play fetch with her with it.

Hi Bob,
Every party has a beginning and an end. If you're going to have a pity party, set an end time and carry on.😊

Me too Will Hamm . I don't look at the cartoon until the day I post it so I need to be pretty quick in deciding what I am going to write about it.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Bob "RealMan" Timm! I really appreciate your honesty and humor about those tough days; it’s refreshing to see how you turn things around. Love the prayer tip—definitely something I'll try next time I'm in a funk!

I hope you do Lew Corcoran but I also hope you don't find yourself in a funk for a long time.

I loved Carol Williams comment! setting a beginning and ending for a pity party sounds like a great idea. Get it out of your system, hit the buzzer and it's over! Works for me!

Me too Dorie Dillard Austin TX . I'm going to adopt that solution.

There are certainly plenty of days like that in life when nothing seems to be going our way, haha.
