(Can't Live Without Your) Love And Affection

So my friend Elena reminded me that she and I, on our way to school in our High School days, would love listening to Nelson.  :)  And we honestly loved Nelson, didn't we Elena?  So today's song is dedicated to Elena because we had such fun driving to school together. 

Nelson is compromised of Matthew and Gunnar Nelson, the sons of Ricky Nelson.  Just for kicks I've included a song of Ricky Nelson's for today so you get the complete picture.  :)  Anyway, Matthew and Gunnar both got a lot of grief back in the days for their long blond locks and looks.  Regardless of their looks they do hail from a great musician and they have the chops.  They are great musicians!  Imagine my surprise when I looked them up online and saw they were still playing, touring, creating.  So I've also included their most recent song from their most recent release.  I will say...they look WAY better today than they did in 1990 when Elena and I would sing at the top of our lungs with them!  :)

Happy Monday!

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.
