Welcome! My name is Kara. You can learn more about me and why I write this blog here.

Here is the week I hope to have:

• 29th – Disney’s Sleeping Beauty (1954)
• 2nd – Groundhog Day, watch Jack Frost

First things first …

• What is essential?
• Do I need help?
• Where can I compromise?

To Do / Enjoy / Remember:

• January low/no spend $
• This is a Pay Day week for us:
  • Budget x Paycheck
  • ATM, cash envelope stuffing
  • Add to Christmas 2023 savings
• NO FRIDAY FEBRUARY – a tradition in our homeschool is that we take Fridays off during the month of February
• Unsubscribe from email lists
• Clean out the junk drawer
• Photograph all January FOs (finished objects)
• Organize the laundry room
  • New shelf?
  • Better laundry system?
• Upload January 2023 photos
• Change the calendars
• Change the letterboard
• Mail Valentine’s cards
• Update Roku screensaver – I use family photos and rotate them frequently

I plan to put up my feet and knit along to:

• I started Frasier February, my annual rewatch, a little early this year
• Christopher and I are continuing to work our way through the Marvel Chronological watch.

My current influences:

• Martha Stewart’s monthly calendars from her magazine (no longer in print). 
• Alison May’s Brocante Home website and online community as well as her seasonal home books.

Thank you for how kind you’ve been to this little blog of lists.

I am approaching blogging differently this time around. No pressure on me and no pressure on you. Just a basic but truly helpful site.

Thank you for reading!
