[quote=Anonymous]I always thought it was cultural/regional.  I can not stand the slow movers here, but I learn to laugh at it.

I agree with PPs, I was raised to make the most of my day and embrace life such that it could end tomorrow; being busy is permissible, and preferred to being sloth like.  I definitely would not be where I am today if I embraced "my lazy side" and did not multitask.  As long as people understand that, and don't envy/covet what others have, then fine, do your thing.  Unfortunately, there is too much of the latter around here.

I find when I have less energy, and less gets done around here, my surroundings are not peaceful.  Things pile up, literally and figuratively.  I find in our house, it is not good for our family because I am the only one that organizes certain important things.  And if we all checked out like my husband, we'd all be in trouble!   He has depression in his family, so it is an issue.  I guess someone has to be motivated around here.

My husband and his family are the slowest movers out there.  Its funny!  [/quote]
