People always think I’m motivated, I’m type-A, and I get a lot done. That might be true, but I am in awe of my wife.
She’s working a lot, busy all day, she tries to get her horse time, chores, managing bills in the household, and trying to run every day like me. She was about on day 30, and got done with her day about 9:30, getting Kendall to bed and she was exhausted. She crawled into bed, still dressed, coat still on from horse training and fell asleep.
I was still up, answered a few things from work, got Delaney to bed, and then lay down to unwind with some TV. Usually when I do that, Tia wakes up to tell me she’s tired. She didn’t.
So I leaned over and kissed her, rubbing her shoulder, and expected a response.
Nothing.
She slept away and I was torn about waking her. After 30 minutes of TV, I decided that it wasn’t worth it and I should let her sleep. I didn’t think her running streak was that important.
This morning she woke up late and surprised me. She got up around midnight, did her run, and then worked for an hour or so to get things done.
Amazing. I’m not sure I’d have gotten up at midnight to run. I’d like to think I would, but I’m not sure I would.

Hmmm... Dedicated? Or simply crazed with purposeless and blind ambition? Your post made me laugh. I don't realize how insane it must seem to the outside sometimes. Inside my head is a crazy place - as you know. You're my perfect match, my type-A split-apart. Let's grow old together. :-)
I think I'm a type A.2, lower than the Type A.1, hard driver you are. You're my inspiration.
