There is NO point in Janis doing that.- if he is alive, then she just disturbs him- if he is dead, then he will still be dead in the morning, and she will have had a nightâs sleep
Now that my husband and I are senior citizens, every time he sleeps later than usual I start wondering if Iâm a widow and donât know it. But I donât wake him up to find out. It will become obvious soon enough.
My husband does the same thing. He wakes me if my leg is twitching or my breathing sounds irregular. This insures that I donât get a good nightâs sleep and am grouchy in the morning. Donât wake sleeping dogs, bear, or spouses!
so so funnyâŠâŠâŠmy wife gets something out of the refrigerator, smells it and offers me someâŠ..âthis smells funny taste itâ. lol why would i do thatâŠ..
Sleeping didnât come easy after we had our first child. I kept waking up when he was crying or fussing. When he wasnât crying or fussing, I kept getting up to check to see if he was still breathing. Things were more relaxed with our second child.
My new upstairs neighbor works a late shift, and often tromps around until two oâclock in the morning and later. Itâs worse on her days off, but I canât yet tell when those days are. So now I have to take sleeping pills. They say they are not not habit-forming, but how would they know? Welcome to the first day of the rest of my life.
I do this with my husband, but I usually just lightly lay a hand on his back to feel for breathing. He has asthma and so I am always checking up on him, especially if he was in a clientâs home that day with dogs he had a reaction to.
They should have Sunday to go by since that is when the artist colors his own comic. But look a poor Charles Brown. He isnât bald, he has short blond hair. But the colorists just color him bald.
I have shaken both my children awake when they were very young and I couldnât tell if they were breathing. I still feel that panic when my eldest is sleeping deeply and I canât see her chest rising and falling.
My late husband had sleep apnea when he was heavy and I would wake up when he stopped breathing. He slept on his side, so I would put my hand on his back to see if it was moving.
When husband was ill this past fall, I would sometimes put my hand under nose while he was sleeping if he did not seem to be breathing â he always was, luckily.

It could be worse; he could be sleeping and making sounds (e.g. snoring, sleep apnea, gurgling stomach, talking about his lover).

JJ didnât draw a solid line between the back of Arloâs head and his pillow.
Colorist used a âbucket toolâ to âfillâ Arloâs hair with yellow⊠with no line to separate them, it filled the pillow, too.
Â
Upshot is, for a moment, I thought Arlo suddenly had a full head of long blonde hair.
LOL
Â
BTW⊠donât start jumping the coloristâŠ.
not only do they only get about 10 minutes to color each daily strip (an hour a week for the six days),
They generally have no way to contact the cartoonist and are under strict orders not to change any of his line work.
Â
This colorist could probably only skip Arloâs hair in that panel and let it stay white or let the pillow turn yellow.

So Arlo doesnât sleep so soundly any more? Differently enough to disturb his wife? Try melatonin.

Whatâs the one thing guaranteed to turn a manâs stomach?
Two warm breasts pressed against his back.
Do that Janis, and you will know instantly whether or not Arlo is alive!
