aardogs...but at really highly competitive, close competitions, do you think those really fluffy shelties would be faster without all their hair, or does all that hair help them become a more-aerodynamic bullet-like shape?
In any case, summer break is here. I used to absolutely love summer but over the years I've started enjoying it less and less. Last summer was probably the worst, although I can attribute a lot of that to my summer-long mysterious illness. The biggest thing is that I like to be busy all day every day. I'm not good at relaxing. There are probably a lot of factors that contribute to my summertime blues, even thought there are even more reasons to enjoy the summer.
I am recognizing the fact that remaining mentally happy and healthy takes active and continued work on my part. I'm not sure how common this is, and I suppose it doesn't really matter, but it's just something I need to be conscious of all the time. And it is something that is easy to forget. I have to remember that filling all my days with as much stuff as possible is not exactly a solution anyway. It's a good life, I don't want to waste it feeling bad.

Date: 2014-05-14 05:37 pm (UTC)Relaxing -- to me -- is a very long time to do whatever needs to be done. I CAN do things quickly, but if there's no real time limit, it's very relaxing to me to just TAKE MY TIME with something. It's rare I get that luxury.
I always feel better about myself when I've accomplished something I deem worthwhile. I tend to be a person who deals with stress by SHOWING THE WORLD I can get shit done. Is that healthy?? I have no idea, but ... it works for me, and shit gets done. ;)
