I am laying in bed thinking, with my wife snoring away next to me. She actually doesn't snore, she sleeps so quietly that when we first started dating I would check if she was still breathing.
Tomorrow morning we are going to head for a quick breakfast somewhere together after we drop or daughter to daycare. I can't remember the last time we have done this, it was at least before our daughter was born over two years ago. We weren't going anywhere fancy, just the local shopping centre as we have to get some groceries anyway. Two birds.
I am trying to find gaps in our schedules where we can spend even 30 minutes together and perhaps talk about something other than money, work or health issues. Or Steem.
What do normal people talk about? The weather? Sports, TV, news? We don't really watch any of those things which means if we have to talk about or lives, out is money, work, health and Steem. We obviously need to get out of the house more.
I would like us to go to the gym together because I think the physical activity would do us both some good but that doesn't seem to be a option for my wife at the moment. I need to move often otherwise I get very lethargic and unmotivated. I am starting to get back into it slowly.
I think it is important for couples to do things often enough together because I believe we are always changing and in a relationship it is grow together or grow apart. I think the obligations and circumstances we have at the moment is of the growing apart kind and if that gap gets to big, it might be unbridgeable.
I don't want that so, I have to find gaps in tight schedules to build and maintain the bridges between us. How we spend our time matters a great deal and although it shouldn't, time wasting frustrates me because I have so little of it that when I see others squander the opportunity time brings, I wish they could delegate it to me instead.
Wouldn't that be great? Delegated time from people who don't want to use theirs. There must be a market for that. Do you think it would trade higher or lower than Steem?
Goodnight.
