I have been thinking lately about our incredibly busy lifestyles. Some people think we're insane with the amount of activity we fit into a single weekend. I am bored very easily so the busy lifestyle suits me. Brett is more of a relaxed person and enjoys a relaxing evening whereas I love to pack as much as possible in. Our weekends are sometimes hectic, but I love it! I believe his mindset is starting to change a little as well.
I think our mentality sort of follows the "YOLO" theme. Although we don't take part in crazy and risky behavior, we do like to make the most of our days together. Our families are filled with illness, deaths, and sadness sometimes and it's all we have to hang on. We look forward to each day and feel accomplished when the day is done. It feels great to get things done around the house, get our shopping done, visit with family and friends, and spend precious time with Vera. I never feel bad about any of it but I do regret things if I can't fit it all in. I would rather do too much, than too little.
Now, this type of lifestyle does not fit everyone. Along with the craziness comes some stress. For those who don't like packing so much in such a short amount of time, they tend to be a bit more relaxed. That's how Brett used to be.
The bottom line, do what's right for you and your family. We all need those relaxing and lazy days to compose ourselves every now and again. I have those days. For the most part though, I love to GO GO GO. I'm interested to see what Vera picks up on and how she will turn out.
