For Thursday, May 12: The Way I Am

Ingrid Michaelson is quickly becoming a favorite. She seems to be representative of the kind of music I am leaning towards the past couple of years. More mellow, simple.
Today's song made Michaelson big because Old Navy picked it up for a commerical series back a couple of years ago and it seems people were finding themselves humming the song and asking Old Navy who it was. Just goes to show you'll never know how you will make it big. :)
I love the lyrics (of course) of this song. It makes me think of Lanny and I. How he can look at me and desire me (hey, I'm just being real and he IS my hub!) after seeing me in the early morning hours or living with me for the past 15 years just blows me away! But he really loves me the way I am. And I love him the way he is. What a blessed thing to have in a marriage or even just a relationship!

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.
