What did you do now, Earl that warrented a jab in the elbow?

some events of the day Opal would rather forget

A wakeup elbow!

Domestic violence

Wait until she remembers her dreams.

Earl should take that as a hint to move. There may be more coming as she continues to recall the day’s events. (He probably should at least put up a pillow between the two of them.)

Hungry Earl? Here’s a “Hurts don’t it”!

Could have been worse if she’d jabbed him with a knitting needle.

I think that Roscoe agrees with the “quiet part of the day”…

Opal’s in a roller derby league?

‘’Quiet at the end of the day’’?? … what do two old geezers get up to?

Wait, there was that commotion, when Earl was combing those 2 hairs on his head.

I think there was a meeting of minds when it came to reflecting on the day’s events, Earl.

She SCARES me sometimes……

Geeze! A person can’t even relax at the end of the day with Opals needing an audience of the days events….

Whatever happens…Roscoe seems to be the most fun character in the strip!!!

After a certain time together, your wife might poke you in her sleep for something she dreamed you were doing. (I wish I were kidding.)

Why does she need an audience to quietly reflect upon her day!

And Roscoe is listening!

That jab could just as easily be for something Earl did in 1989. Women never forget, or forget to remind you in case you’ve forgotten.

Nobody’s perfect, Opal. Sheesh.

Not that Earl’s actions deserve complaint.

This may be why I have begun holding my wife’s hand when we sit on the couch together.

Hubby and I do not do that as we do not sit together, he sits in his recliner and I have over sized chair.

Love Roscoe’s goofy smile in the first panel.
