Life Lately | January
Hey guys! Almost done with January and because it's not actually over yet and I'm not willing to break a resolution in less than 30 days, I'm not going to complain about it at all. What I will say is that February is coming up quick and it's a short month. So it's basically almost March, which always comes with few nice days and we're practically on the highway to summer.
How's that for staying positive? Seriously though, this has been the most mild winter ever and I AM HAPPY for it. The month did feel long, like really long, but I feel like it was well used. Got a few projects started, read a handful of books and the best part - I slept. I'm afraid to put anything in writing, lest the universe punish me as it usually does when I casually suggest a parenting win, so I'm just going to vaguely say that Duke and his sleeping are doing okay.
January is mostly just home project season at my house. It's when I'm cooped up inside long enough to feel motivated to do inconvenient things in the name of having a cozier home. I painted my bedroom a few weekends ago and just got finished up with the first coat of paint in Ryan's bathroom. Some day, in some far away project season many years away, I'll get around to painting the trim.
Anyway, January is a month I aim to survive, accepting that I'm not here to thrive. I force myself to find at least one fun thing to do every weekend, and per my last email about the very mild winter, that's mostly been Duke and I bombing around Benzie county to check on our favorite beaches.
Technically in February, but cheers to the end of Dry January!
