And just like that, it’s January!
This year I decided I wasn’t going to rush putting away the holiday decorations, but when I got up on the day after Christmas I looked around and thought, “all this has got to go!”
I am getting ready for a New Year with less clutter, more reading, art, exercise and healthier food after a decadent December!
Here’s what I’m thinking about making in January
