Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for April 02, 2021

He lets his personal assistant worry about such details.

I haven’t written my to do list yet, too depressing. As it is sometimes I can’t decide what to do, so I just watch an episode of Top Gear and call it a day.

Not to mention when a good looking gal is next to him.

My to do list always has lots on it. You can’t worry about it and lose sleep over it, otherwise you will be exhausted before you start.

Another example of JJ somehow knowing what’s happening in our home. Everything weighs on my wife and I sympathize with her. Sometimes it takes me two or three minutes to fall asleep. And then other times she asks a question and I don’t make it to the end of my answer, at least that’s what she said.

My to do list got so long that I had to get some paper from the born loser.

When I think of something at 3am, I usually am satisfied with “well you can’t do anything about it at 3am”. Then in the daylight, it doesn’t seem like as big a deal anyway.

Janis, Once it is on the list it is no longer something to lose sleep over. It gets done when its turn comes up. Sleep is a valuable asset and not to be wasted with worry about things that won’t get solved, if you don’t get the sleep.

Janis reminded me of this John Fogerty song from 2004. :-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qixNg3-juJ0

My wife’s “to do” list was always never ending and a bone of contention!

So we got divorced!

Simple solution to a seemingly universal problem!!

Just because it’s on the to do list doesn’t mean you have to do it! Jeeze!

I do most everything on my to-do list, and sometimes more

That’s why I sleep the way I do, I’m exhausted

Actually it’s her to do list. He’s just the poor sap who has to do it. (Yep, I’m married)

It’s not a mystery, Janis. Arlo had a consultation with Calvin today although Hobbes differed.

Panel 2 – a kiss when you’re asleep is a sign of true love. (unless you’re in prison!)

My ToDo list is so long my lawyer suggested I make it my beneficiary.

Looks like he missed one item on the list.

My to do list is in my head. My wife’s, on the other hand, is on cards that helps her keep up with what has to be done each week/month/ 6-months/etc. We date it when it’s completed. I hate it, but I admit it’s useful when we’ve looked at something and said “wow, it’s been that long – like painting the house.”

after a certain age those “to do lists” don’t mean as much

Janis, it’s because the list is filled with “what” rather than “whom”.

How does he sleep like that? Simple. He’s a guy.

He just knows that he’ll never get any of those tasks done if he doesn’t keep up his strength from lack of sleep.

Doesn’t seem to keep me up….

Lovely couple ♡.

And when he does get around to doing it, he’ll get most of it wrong.

Recharging

Number one on my to-do list is to ignore the list. Just don’t ask how that works out…

My to-do list is to depressing to even think about much less read everyday. I choose to live a happily oblivious life and ignore the mental list that’s looming. My next chore is doing my taxes. Going to try doing it myself this year with the help of Turbo Tax. Please keep in touch when I’m serving my time. I’ll miss you all.

My old man makes a list and I do what need to be done and he does what he wants to do, never the same thing. The big problem is I do my projects by myself but I always have to help him with his projects.

He’d be awake if Janice was on his “to do” list.

The way it worked with my late husband was I would ask him to do something. If I only asked once, it didn’t happen because obviously it wasn’t important. But, if I asked a second time he seemed to think I was nagging him and therefore rebelled by not doing it.
