The City Twin & The Country Twin- Why The Pawning Planners Have Compensating Personalities…
My Mini Me, Makenna Mahaney has to have everything perfect at all times- we are both OCD. My twin sister and Makenna’s twin, Maryssa prefer a good time, dressing comfortably and mimic each other. Compensating personality twins look alike but often act differently. Maryssa and Makenna like different foods as do Cindy and I. From food to sports to clothing and everything in between, we find humor in our differences.
never had to work but
are required to do chores and they love volunteering at our events for “tips & flips.” They made their own video to promote their skills two years ago- Maryssa & Makenna Mahaney- The Little Pawners! Maryssa hates homework and Makenna loves it- they are hilarious twin sisters.
Many of my career choices required being dressed to the nines on a daily basis and so, I adopted to the formal wear “look.” My twin sister has always hated to wear clothing she deems unconfortable and during the winter months, enjoys her house slippers that double as “shoes.”
When I told Cindy about my idea of starting a low cost wedding & event business, she jumped in to volunteer helping with photography and set up but we quickly realized her “specialty” was entertaining the guests! Because of her new role at events, my son and his wife became our photography team.
Explaining to non twins the differences of twins can be complicated but, when my sister and I (or even our second generation twins, Maryssa and Makenna Mahaney) are around others we are asked if we do everything together or dress alike of have the same likes and dislikes. Why? Because twins fascinate non twins and most of them love to ask questions. Spend a few minutes talking to my sister and I and you will quickly realize that while we look alike- we are completely different.
I’ve spent my life “living in the city.” Whether it was in California or Texas- I have never desired to be too far from a grocery store or gas station. Convenience and the “city life” suit me but, I’m a twin and my sister loves her “country life.”
This afternoon while reading one of my sister, Cindy Daniels #Cindyisms, I called to tell her it was missing something. My sister insisted that there wasn’t anything missing from her self proclaimed #redneckgranny sayings and that I must be the only person who doesn’t understand them-she’s right, I don’t.
on Cindy because 50% of the time, I have no idea what she’s talking about!
Twinning is winning and even though my country twin hates the city life, she “comes to town” twice a week to see me and I “drive to the country” twice a week to see her. Sleepovers at my home are a weekly occurence because we love siending time together. Do we agree on everything? No but, being a twin doesn’t mean you have identical personalities-we don’t and neither do our younger twins.
Being a twin is a blessing because you always have a best friend whether they agree with you or not…
