Wow, trying to find a word that started with J (you know, for the January alliteration) that also meant “relaxing” was nearly impossible. I just spent an embarrassingly long time trying to come up with the perfect word!
Anyway….
I am admittedly a workaholic, and not in a good way. I spend way too many hours at my desk. I’m obsessive and it’s not healthy. If I’m not working, I feel guilt. It’s a self-employment thing. I know that because I hear many other self employed people saying the exact same thing.
After putting together that year-end slideshow, it was crystal clear; we needed to take January a bit slower. You know… work on the house, go on dates, hang with friends, lounge on the couch, and cook real dinners; all the while completely guilt-free! While we definitely did work a bit, it was at a much slower pace. …and it was awesome!
By the way, those are all from my Instagram feed. They’re in chronological order, starting January 1st. Expect more images like those in the coming months.
Much love to you friends!

happy late january!
Bobbi, your hair looks goooooooood!
Love these! Glad you had a great January!
I just love you guys. that is all.
Oh Bobbi!! Your sharpie draw picture could have been taken at my house… I have an addiction that should probably be delt with!
God, I want your dining room table! It’s gorgeous! Also wouldn’t mind having the everyone poops shirt…
I like the word Jollies! Good choice
Hope February is as good and January!
p.s. your hair is AWESOME!
1.love this peek into the behind the scenes of your life 2. never cut your hair again! It’s so long a way stunning.
I’m exactly the same, Bobbi. EXACTLY. which is why I’m about to close my computer and go running, even though I still have work to finish today. done-and-done.
(can’t wait to grin and wave at you at WPPI again this year!)
i love your ‘grams! keep ’em comin’!!!!
Moving slower is the key. But with kids it sure isn’t easy. Neither is working on the house, etc. Your IG’s are adorable. Love them all!
Work will always be there…at the end of ones life the wish would never be to have worked more! The double edged sword of self employment is that you COULD take a nap in the middle of the day if you wanted to, but there is never time because you work all of the time! Ok, maybe I fit a nap in once or twice, you should try it!
Bobbi & MIkey,
I especially enjoyed you taking things a bit slower. Spending time with the two of you meant the world to me. I love you both very much and your house is the Bomba.
Love always,
Momba
You look relaxed in these photos, that is what jumps out at me and makes me smile. And you happen to look gorgeous too! I am sooooooo bummed I won’t be at WPPI this year, have a blast and don’t forget to step back and take a breath there too!
So glad you did this for yourself!
Really awesome, glad you’re having an awesome new year!
