Hello everyone and welcome to February!

My friend sent me a message this morning that said “happy 2025” because she decided that her 2025 is only starting today. I love it!

I love the idea of a gentle easing in to the year but alas, that has not been the case. Kids going back to school and having to get up early again (!), work, exercise, all of it. Routines are lovely when you’re in them, but when you’ve had two months off, it’s hard to create those habits again. More on this later.

I remember...
