Everyday

For years now I have started a lot of my days with this song, whether I'm just humming it or I actually cue it up in my itunes.  I love the energy of this song, I think it is a great way to start the day!  But really why I like to start my day with it is it serves as a reminder of my mission for that day.  To live every minute of that day for Christ.  To take his word and apply it to my actions, words, and thoughts.  To set aside myself and live solely for him.  Following in the footsteps of Jesus has never led me down a stray path but has always led me in the path he has marked out for me.  When I succeed and make my day all about him I never have any regrets at the end of the day, I never feel frustrated about decisions that had to be made, and I have peace that the day belonged to the One who made it. 

Psalm 118:24, "This is the day the LORD has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it!"

Butter someone up

There are two probable origins for this idiom and I think both are equally plausible. The first one is that when you spread butter on bread you are buttering it up like one would do when trying to flatter someone. The second is in ancient India there was a practice of throwing balls of butter at statues to ask for favor, i.e. buttering them up. ( source ) When we use the phrase today we generally mean that extreme flattery is used to gain information or favor. It's not always necessarily a compliment.

Call it a Day

The literal use of this phrase hails from 1838 when the phrase originally was "call it half a day" to mean leaving work early. (source) The modern use of the phrase is to indicate ending something due to false sense of accomplishment.
