Day 208: The "Village People"

No, not *those* Village People - haha!
I'm talking about the people in our lives that help us out when we are in a bind or when we have a need and they have the knowledge to fix it, etc and we don't. For example, the hub has a group of guys at work that are certified mechanics so we know we can go to them first with car issues and potentially save ourselves a lot of money. The hub isn't a handyman so we have had "village people" help us hang a microwave, fix fences, work on our hot water heater, etc. I'm grateful for all the people in our lives that we know and are willing to come alongside of us in the places where we have weaknesses and help us out. The saying it takes a village doesn't apply to just raising kids I'm thinking.

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.
