January always seems to last ten times longer than any other month of the year. I don’t know if it’s because it is so hard to get back in the groove after the holidays, the bleak January weather (although, here in the Mid-Atlantic, it actually pretty mild!) or the empty schedules following constant movement in December. Either way, cheers y’all! We survived the longest month of the year!
February is typically such a fun month. In my area, we tend to get more snow in February (although, that is not looking promising for this girl in dire need of a snow day!), everything is pink and red for Valentine’s Day, and often, there is celebrations – the Superbowl, National Pizza Day, Valentine’s Day, and my father-in-law and sister’s birthdays.
Because I intentionally didn’t set many goals for January, I ended up piling more on my plate for February. I’m not sure if I’ll accomplish them all, but I’m hoping to make progress in each area. I’ve already taken some good steps forward with them, too! What are some of the things that you are working on this month?
