Hula in the Coola Day
Tired of the long, cold winter you have been experiencing?  Then why not try to chase away the winter cold by donning a grass skirt, a lei, some coconut knockers and doing the hula outside?  Crazy right?  I'm not sure it actually works. Tomorrow is Groundhog Day, maybe that will work?



Baked Alaska Day
The Invention of Baked Alaska
Baked Alaska Recipe
Ever had a Baked Alaska? I never had.
Ben & Jerry's is way easier to "make"! *wink*

Decorating with Candy Day
I'm not sure what you decorate with candy today, unless it is a February Gingerbread House? Or you throw a special party that is candy themed? Maybe it's just an excuse to indulge in your favorite candy!

Dump your Significant Jerk Day
How to Identify a Jerk
How to Dump Someone...nicely.  They might be a jerk but don't sink to their level!
How To Break Up With Someone Without Drama, Pain and Remorse
Note: Most articles, if not all, that I looked at consistently used men as the jerk. Um. I'm a girl so I can point this out, girls can be and are jerks also.  I don't like the stereotype that men are jerks and women aren't. Gender equality people, gender equality.
Another word I like to use for jerk is fool. Fool describes a jerk so much better.
I highly recommend this book, it helps to fool proof our lives.
Here's a brief snippet from the author of the book I just recommended.


Working Naked Day
Okay, this is just NO. Nope. Shouldn't ever happen. Ain't nobody needs to see this or that!

Car Insurance Day
Today if you don't have car insurance but you have a car and drive it then you should do something about that.
Wondering if you've been paying more than you should for insurance?  Do some price checking and see if you can get same or better coverage for cheaper.  Any questions about your coverage?  Take the time today to ask your questions and get some answers.

National Freedom Day
The roots of this special day come directly from the end of slavery and the signing of the 13th amendment outlawing slavery.
This observance holiday differs from Independence Day in that this day is specifically to celebrate/observe the outlawing of slavery.  Independence Day is to observe/celebrate our nation's freedom from Britain.
The 13th Amendment Didn't Abolish Slavery?

Serpent Day
Serpents are snakes, have symbolism, can be found in the Bible, and is an instrument!  There are also bands named Serpent, books with the word in its title, video games, constellations, roller coasters, computer software, and even a nickname for a serial killer.

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.
