#SneakAwaySunday

How far away are you willing to drive for your #SneakAwaySunday? My radius extends to no more than an hour away or else I am spending my sneak away on the road instead of rejuvenating. You have to decide what's right for you.

Today I'm headed to a favorite outdoor spot. Yes, you heard me right - I have a favorite outdoor spot or two. This is a time of year where I don't mind being outdoors during the daylight hours. Now, let's not go crazy - I'm still finding shade to sit in. But today seems like a great day to hang outside for some fresh air and some soul renewal. Depending on how many other people might be around this outdoor space I go to I may or may not pop in my earbuds. If there aren't people around I'll keep them out to keep myself in tune to the nature noises that are around - especially if I go to the place that has running water. Running water is one of the best sounds, I find it incredibly soothing and peaceful.

When I get back in my car after a sneak away, especially one outdoors, I always feel a little assaulted by life right at first. But thanks to the sneak away I can carry a little peace and quiet away into life with me.

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.
