Hellooooo February! It’s great to see your smiling face. I am so stoked that January has come to a conclusion, because it was such a long and stressful month on our end. If you guys liked it, I’m totally fine with that! I won’t hold it against you. :-)))
So what happened in the coldest month of the year? Well to begin, we have been moving into The Little Barn over the last few weeks. It’s been slow, rough, and just not a fun experience in the least bit.
Geoffrey celebrated his birthday on the 19th. That was probably one of the only good things to come out of January.
Actually, that was a lie. I found out that I am now a regular contributor for another magazine. This one is called Home & Harvest and is published monthly in the States!
I also managed to produce five wonderful DIYs! Two were for eating (one fruity and one chocolate treat), one other for sleeping, the other for making, and the last for displaying. The banner actually turned out better than I could have hoped for, and I am so excited to create more!
January started off extremely slow in regards to sales in the Potomac Trading Post, Ltd. store. However, I read that it’s actually the worst month for all retail stores, given that customers are still recovering from their Christmas expenditures. Towards the second half of the month, it began to pick up. Now I’m right back on track with sales goals! Whew!
Speaking of clothes, I had two different OOTD posts. One was to ring in the New Year, and the other showcasing my favourite, and oldest, go-to dress. The latter spawned yet another life lesson from my mum, AKA Night Owl. I also hinted to what was in the store, here.
We went and saw The Imitation Game and Gone Girl in the theatres. I didn’t blog about that, but both are worth noting!
Last but not least, I introduced a new series based on the idea of the Home that will begin next month! If you’re interested in taking part, there are still a few spots remaining!
February’s going to be a fun and short month. I can feel it!

/ 02/02/2015Hello Grasshopper. I agree. It’s time to kick January to the curb. Possibly the coldest, darkest and definitely the longest month. My livestock affect my mood. And January finds them wanting to stay hunkered down in the warm barn until noon. The dogs roll over and groan and open one lazy eye, as if to say ‘ are you kidding me? Too cold and dark. See you later’. I echo their sentiment. So let’s jump into February, a short blessed month, rush through it, and lift our faces to the sky sniffing for those warm spring scents.
