Sleeping In

This song pulls and pulls at me every time I hear it.  It's one of those songs that makes me think, "Beth just be honest with yourself and with others."  Raw honesty is sometimes the best way to go, especially when you catch people looking at you in weird ways because they wonder what is up with your strange behaviors.  :) 

People who know me well know when I'm not behaving like myself.  So.  If you have been wondering what in the world is wrong with me :) then today's song may give you a few hints.  I've been "sleeping in", trying to escape hard stuff, painful stuff, weary stuff.  And while I've been sleeping I've been asking God what needs to happen to wake up.  He's been good to show me the ways but it's been a process.  I'm still pretty sleepy but God has been telling me it's time to start waking up.  Because we ALL have to wake up eventually!  :) 

So now you know.  If I haven't been very visible in your world or very vocal in your world and that isn't my norm with you now you know why.  I've been buried under the covers sleeping.  But I've poked my head out and I'm contemplating throwing back the covers.  :)

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.
