January is going to be a month of work, I vowed. I am not going to waste my motivation this year.
I don’t know about you, but I feel SO MUCH MOTIVATION at the beginning of the year. New Year’s resolutions, goal-setting, taking your business to the next level.
January is a month when I want to buckle down, work hard, and do little else. And I didn’t realize that until last year, when Charlie and I spent January in Puerto Vallarta and realized that we were spending our big work month in a country that’s all about play.
So this year we decided to stay put — and it worked. We stayed in Prague, leaving only to pick up our new vintage table in Olomouc. We cuddled with the cats, tried out axe throwing, went out for some good Georgian food, went on a walk in a snowstorm.
And with that month of work behind us, we’re ready to hit the road again. And the timing is perfect. By the time February hits, you’re ready to get out of the cold!

I have a brand new baby niece! One of my best friends welcomed a new baby this month, and she is BEYOND perfect! I’m so glad she arrived safely and can’t wait to get her a flower headband for my wedding.
Bringing home a really cool vintage dining table. Last month I talked about the vintage chairs we found, and this month we brought home an awesome mid-century modern table, also designed for the 1958 Brussels Expo.
Getting the table was a bit of an ordeal. It was located in Olomouc in the Moravia region of the Czech Republic. So we rented a van, drove three hours to pick it up, loaded it up with bungee cords, drove three hours back, brought it upstairs, disassembled our existing table that weighed a million pounds, brought down to the van, delivered it in pieces to a friend of a friend, then returned the van.
But the table is SUCH a cool piece, it was a steal of a price, and we love it!! And the cats love laying on top of it.
We rented an elliptical machine for the winter. Did you know you can rent cardio machines? I had no idea that was a thing until recently.
From spring through fall, I take a LOT of walks in Prague, but it’s hard finding the motivation to exercise outdoors when it’s miserably cold outside. This has been an awesome way of getting low-impact…
