I Can See Clearly Now

This is a great song.  And Lanny suggested it today, he likes one version in particular but I couldn't find it on YouTube and aren't savvy enough to make my own video so it's the original which is GREAT!  I love the original by Johnny Nash.  The original is always the best as far as I'm concerned.  :) 

I think Lanny suggested this because he isn't tethered any longer to O2 and IV tubes, etc.  There is something about being freer once you don't have those tubes holding you back.  :)

In the Bible God talks a lot about new days and such.  This song reminds me of those particular verses.  Everyday God's mercies and compassions are new for us, everyday is a gift from him, we aren't to think about future days just the day we are in.  (Lamentations 3, Psalm 118, Matthew 6) 

Have a great day!

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. 

More bang for your buck

This phrase was used a lot in 1953 but an earlier citation puts it at 1940 in a Metals and Plastics Publications advertisement. Read about it here . The phrase means you get more for your money.
