Day 342: Idle Time

(For Sunday August 3)

This morning a few of us rose before the sun did and made our way to Central Park.  We hunkered down in a huge line for six hours to score free Shakespeare in the Park tickets.  My Dad, the oldest redhead, my newly married brother and sister-in-love, and I sat in this line and spent idle time chatting about any and everything.  I felt so grateful for this time that we just sat and laughed and talked and planned a future trip and just got to be together.  It was some of the best idle time I have had in a while.  I was so grateful that I volunteered to drag myself out of bed after an exhausting and incredibly fun weekend to sit in a line for 6 hours, which sounds crazy and might be a little bit, to have this idle time with my brother and sister-in-love. It was just another perfect thing about this wedding weekend.

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.
