I was so sad to hear that the comic strip “Cathy” is going to end that I almost ordered myself a chocolate fountain and six pound cakes to mourn.
Cathy has been the comic I turn to every week and enjoy just as much as I do free cookies samples at the grocery store - a lot.
I’ve always felt that Cathy, via her creator Cathy Guisewite, really had her pulse on the typical day in the life of an average woman.
Cathy struggled through the "four basic guilt groups" of life — food, love, mom, and work — the strip pokes fun at the foibles of modern women.
She went through the same type of trials and tribulations that I do – an obsession with weight, shopping, pets, shoes, boyfriends – “AACK!”
Just read some of her book titles: “Wake Me Up When I’m a Size 5” (1985); “Abs of Steel, Buns of Cinnamon” (1997); “Shoes: Chocolate for the Feet" (2000). "think I'm having a Relationship with a Blueberry Pie!" (1981) :Only Love Can Break a Heart, But a Shoe Sale Can Come Close" (1992).
Cathy always made me feel connected to other women and feel better about my own troubles. She always made me laugh.

Her strip is scheduled to end in October. I’m going to miss her.
