Shopping

For some reason I'm pretty sure this song has undertones that I'm not picking up on!  :)  But I like it for it's upfront message about shopping.  I especially think it is appropriate when he sings, "I'm trying to pick up a friendly bargain, But it's not like the adverts all make out."  :) Also the line, "I'm haunted by the colours and hoardings a reminder that I must be inadequate."  What I find interesting about that line is that many people sub-consciously do shop to keep up with the "Jones' " and a lot of times that does lead to some level of hoarding!  So does that make me a semi-level hoarder as I go out today and join the masses in getting the "deals"?!?  AHAHAHAHA!!

Happy Black Friday everyone!

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.

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.
