#MemorialDayMonday


Newsflash: #MemorialDayMonday is NOT for hardware store sales, home improvement projects, BBQ's, and camping trips. Don't get me wrong - those things are fine and they are even fine to do on the last Monday of May. But. (You knew that was coming right?) But they shouldn't be why the day is set aside. Here's the real reason why America has a Memorial Day.

So fire up the grill, plant those flowers, have a s'more or two. But. But make sure that you take the most time to honor, and to reflect on the reason we have this day marked as a holiday. Let's not forget why we remember.

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.
