Is It Bad?

Is it bad that I keep missing posts on a blog that I agreed to post on everyday?

Is it bad that I keep missing posts on a blog that I agreed to post on everyday because I keep falling asleep in front of the TV every night because I can't stay awake past 11pm anymore?

Seriously, I am really wanting to get back in the habit of posting daily. Which means I'll have to stop waiting to post before bed since I apparently can't stay awake long enough these days to do so. Look at me being all proactive and posting at 7pm. The real "is it bad" I want to post is this...

Is it bad that I check to make sure my dogs are still breathing when they're sleeping?

Toby is 9 or 10 (when we got him they told us he was 6 or 7, so each year I just continue that: 7 or 8, 8 or 9, now this past birthday he turned 9 or 10). Penny will be 13 in November. So they are older dogs. My friend Allie has referred to them as "geriatric" before. Though they are full of life and sprightly little chaps, I am very much aware of the lifespan of dogs and the thought creeps up on me when I glance down and see them peacefully sleeping. I normally just look for the rise and fall of their furry little bellies to signal as a sign of life, but I have resorted to more drastic techniques before. I once kicked Penny multiple times in the middle of the night just to make sure she responded.
