Hi fellow seniors, when did you last hear something pleasing?

My husband becomes a fish or whale out of water because he flops/plops into the bed and I am sure that even though I am heavier, one of these times I am going to hit the ceiling! Also, I have some new pains and the plopping causes me to move and hurt another spot! God forbid he has to get up to go to the bathroom, and then another f-l-o-p.

Forgot to mention that as soon as he gets in bed, he has an automatic fart thing going on. So the evening is flop, fart, flop, flop; get up for the bathroom, flop into bed, flop, flop, then another fart. God help me, someday I know I will miss this agitation.

Then I will just get a mangy mutt to sleep with me. There won't be much flopping, but I know dogs can fart, too.

I am a light sleeper, more so since my dog died. I think a lot of females are, especially those of us who have/had children. Most of nature's noises don't bother me although I sometimes get up to investigate, usually it's a fox.

Spiders dropping to the floor or bed can wake me up. It depends on how big or menacing it looks whether I fully wake up or turn over and go back to sleep. I haven't seen or heard a hedgehog for several years, along with the foxes they used to do a nightly patrol.

I'm not keen on very high winds as I worry about the roof blowing away. The most irritating noises, and the ones that really wake me up, are the external ones made by thoughtless humans.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
