What have you been doing lately?

Oh!  Hello there!  How has your summer been?
Cool.  Glad to hear it.  Uh-huh.  I know, right? 
Mine? Let's see... what did I do this weekend?

And that's when my mind goes blank.

Well, he came over, and I forget after that.
I don't know what we do...
Probably the same things most people do.
Eat food, clean up, lounge around, watch movies,
take walks, hang out with friends, take hikes, drive...
water plants, hug a lot, buy groceries, play with phones,
go to church, write stories, read aloud, laugh and be funny,
plan on spending time with the other's family, buy plane tickets,
be lazy, make lists, help each other process life, let the other cry,
let yourself cry, "pass notes" all day when we're apart, write haiku,
misunderstand, make up, worry, pray, tell secrets, drink tea, thrift shop,
hold hands, learn each other, forgive, notice the seasons, watch the stars,
take pictures, look at water, trim moustaches, clean glasses, wash cars, and
talk on the phone, meet the other's friends, feel anxious, and talk it all over again,
share devotional readings, read cat bible, fairy tales, poetry, fantasy, news articles,
bring over dinner, do rodent and pest control, learn how to fix backs, learn how to kiss,
play games, encourage and affirm, plan dates, make a movie queue, talk about our pasts,
talk about the future (as in next week or next month), talk about what we're going to do now,
try to find motivation to do what we are going to do now, do the thing that we're going to do now,
later.

After a nap, or a hug, or silence, or conversation, or re-thinking, or a trip to the loo, or sunglasses,
or an outfit change, an additional sweater or jacket or scarf, some jeans, shoes vs. flip flops, does my hair need doing, did you bring water and snacks and are we taking my car or your jeep, because if it's open air, I've gotta tether down my hair to keep it from cutting my face for half an hour straight. 

After a week of procrastinating on buying plants again because I am so nervous about starting my own garden.  How much time do I spend on things that everyone spends time on, but not as much as I do?  How do I factor in procrastination and not sound like Hamlet, suspicious, terrified, checking and double-checking, plotting and counter-plotting, all to simply show up and be ready and done in time to die?

I do what people do, what women do, what moms do, just by myself and often with a boy.
