So I don't think I can quite get there on appreciating weeds. They make my family and I sneeze, they grow and overtake everything, they are relentless.
Here's one of my favorite Veggie Tales that is about weeds...

And yes, I suppose until now I have ignored the most recent kind of weed that many people are legally enjoying in the states of Colorado, Oregon, Washington, and Alaska. I'm, of course, referring to the weed otherwise known as Cannabis.  Those 4 states have people appreciating it for non-medical reasons, many other states have it legal for medicinal purposes only.  Here's a list in case you are wondering which states have legalized it.
Ever watch Weeds? A Showtime Original Show about cannabis.

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.
