#ShoutOutSaturday




My framily (friends + family = framily) is the focus of my #ShoutOutSaturday. Some of these people are also in my three and twelve group but some of them are firmly in my framily. And framily is just as important in my life as my three's and twelve's. The people I call framily are ones who have experienced something life changing with me. And true to family we all don't talk to each other all the time or see each other that consistently - we are a framily spread throughout the nation - but we would be there for one another in a heartbeat, in fact we have. There is a comfort between us born of traveling together and seeing each other at our best and worst and in between. These people make my heart explode, I am so honored to call them framily. 

Do you have people in your life you consider framily? Give them a shout out today! 

We started off this big...
and then we grew...
and grew...

AND HERE WE ARE 10 YEARS LATER - STILL FRAMILY! 
(August 2017, with over half of our framily missing!
We almost don't fit in one whole picture any
longer!)

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. 

More bang for your buck

This phrase was used a lot in 1953 but an earlier citation puts it at 1940 in a Metals and Plastics Publications advertisement. Read about it here . The phrase means you get more for your money.

A dime a dozen

"It's said that in the year 1796, the first U.S. dimes were produced for circulation. Hence, it would make sense for this phrase to originate sometime after." Read more here .  Today the phrase carries the meaning that something is cheap or without value if it can be lumped in with other similar or exactly-like things. It's more of an insult than anything.
