Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for September 21, 2018

The lamenting of the passing of youth but then when you realize that it beats the alternative it isn’t all that bad afterall

Its still 87 here in NC!

Getting old ain’t for sissies

Time for those form hiding winter clothes. No more high beams.

If Arlo were quick thinking, he would have said, “Only because you bought more, Sweetie.”

The yellow bikini weighed barely anything at all.

Yes, Arlo. We’re certain you’ve been noticing.

Wrong comment, Arlo. On the other hand Janis’ clothes do cover more than they used to.

He misses the lighter ones, but not for sake of the weight itself.

My summer clothes ARE my winter clothes, plus a jacket or two.

Summer things for men are shorts and tee shirt. Winter is jeans and tee shirts.

But it is not so bad when you consider the alternative.

It’s still 95 here with a realfeel of 102. Shorts and tees are the norm here ( the Deep Deep South southern MS) till around November. Then it may cool off enough to get out the sweatpants and shirts.

Ah yes. I remember taking a weekend trip years ago with a young lady who packed all of her outfits in her makeup case.

The point is… Her summer things used to be skimpier and filmier.

As comedian Michael O’Rourke once said, “my winter clothes are my summer clothes, and a jacket.”

It’s gonna be in the 60’s this weekend!! YAY! 93 to 65 in a day.

Nobody told me that getting old would come with a sound track. Mine is cereal, “Snap, Crackle, & Pop!”

Ooh, Arlo – you’re skating on thin ice there…

I’m not sure I get this. Do her clothes weigh more because she is bigger, or because she has more summer clothes? This is a frequent problem for me with A&J, the humor is often very convoluted. The thinking man’s comic strip???

You know you have to many clothes or too small of a dresser when you have to store season clothes.

Modesty has its price.

Mine do too! I am certain that means I have more summer clothes than I used to. I can’t imagine any other explanation.

Arlo noticed while she was wearing them.
