My wife is a bit of an OCD control freak who is constantly looking for the next project to do, or to have me do.
I, on the other extreme, am male.
I fully believe and adhere to the axiom that you should give a difficult job to a lazy person and they will find an easier way to do it. Also, most problems will go away, if you just ignore them. If I had my druthers, I would get and up have breakfast, and then proceed to lounge around all day long before returning to bed at night. Mind you I am not a slob and I maintain a professional job and do it well. But on most days, when she is not at home, I will have at least several hours of ..... non-job/chores time to myself, or at least be able to sit and watch a movie with the kids.
So how about you? Are you driven constantly to improve the house, recheck the finances, work in the yard, push the kids to improve their schoolwork and their lives, or improve your workplace? Do you get up in the morning and work, work, work, until you collapse into bed late at night? Or do you, on average, set aside or conveniently have time to relax and enjoy yourself?
I’m wondering what is normal.
