Day 301: Favors

Today I was driving home and a light came on in the console.  This is never good and immediately sends my armpits into sweat mode.  I am fearful of car problems.  I am fearful of breaking down in the middle of the road and traffic.  I hate cars.  So I did what I always do when this happens. I start muttering out loud over and over, "Please Jesus just get me home" and I start contacting my husband with multiple texts about the car and how it could blow up at any second.  The closer I crept, and yes at this point the car was creeping, to home the more I pressed down on the accelerator to get home quicker.  I turned on to our street.  I pulled into the driveway and...the car died. Dead.  No acceleration, it was done.  But I was in  my driveway. There's my gratitude attitude for the day, whew.  It is pure favor from God, I am seriously so grateful.

P.S. The car was apparently 100% empty of water yet wasn't overheating.  Weird.  My hub put water in, topped off other fluids, drove it around and it's good to go.  So there's an additional gratitude for today - cheap/free "fix"!

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.
