Para resumir el mes de enero, les cuento que lo comencé por supuesto recibiendo el 2026 modo pijama navideña, encendiendo unas velitas para orar por este nuevo año, protegiendo a mi manada de la pirotecnia que duró casi media hora, orando por tantos animalitos desamparados por las calles sin protección, y deseando que encontraran refugios seguros, el segundo día del mes inicié mis compras pre-cumpleaños y disfruté mi primer café del año en una cafetería de la ciudad.

Al tercer día comenzaron las sorpresas, y aún siguen las sorpresas, también mi gatito más viejito se enfermó y tuvimos que hospitalizarlo pero ya está mucho mejor, gracias a Dios… fue hermoso ver al resto de la manada concentrada en cada segundo de esa situación y en solidaridad hacían vigilia cerca de él, pero no tan cerca porque permanecía con una aguja en su patita y me daba temor que lo lastimaran.

Siguieron las lecciones y los aprendizajes, porque los tres equipos de computación se dañaron y tuve que llamar al técnico para que me ayudara a resolver… ahora mismo estoy sobrellevando la situación digital con uno de los equipos en modo reparación improvisada mientras resucitan los demás y yo hago magia para encontrar el presupuesto para pagar todo esto. Aquí sigo conectada con pausas, pero con fe. Las soluciones siempre llegan.

No he podido integrarme al entrenamiento porque he tenido que permanecer más tiempo en la casa, en ese aspecto enero estuvo en pausa, pero he tratado en lo posible de cuidar mi alimentación que bastante alterada estuvo en navidad. Por otro lado, logré reactivar mi proyecto de lectura que estaba apartado, seleccionando un combo bien interesante para este año. Como ven, enero ha tenido mucha tela que cortar.

Mis emprendimientos han estado un poco apagados por los mismos sucesos de enero, pero activos en ideas y proyectos a corto plazo. Lo titulé, mes de reposo forzado. Eso sí, cada salida me ha permitido caminar para despejar mi mente y disfrutar de los espacios naturales de la ciudad, algo que me relaja muchísimo. He disfrutado el florecimiento de los araguaneyes bastante temprano, y aprovechado el tiempo para tomar fotografías.

He celebrado momentos bellos y he recordado momentos tristes; celebré el nuevo bebé que está por llegar en el hogar de mi hermano, el cumpleaños de mi nieta, y la clasificación del Magallanes, mi equipo favorito desde que tengo uso de razón… pero también recordé con tristeza la partida de mi madre un mes de enero.

No me queda más que decir, gracias enero, ya eres un mes simbólico con números incluidos… y bienvenido febrero, espero que nos brindes mucho amor. Gracias a todos por visitar mi blog… feliz inicio de semana.

ENGLISH

Hello everyone, today I welcome February, the month of love and friendship, with much faith and hope for peace, well-being, and blessings for all… and I bid farewell to January, one of my favorite months, with much gratitude to God for all the experiences, the lessons learned, and the spiritual strength I've gained in every situation that has helped shape who I am.

January, for some reason, always seems like an endless month; it's just our perspective. Perhaps we have that impression because at the beginning of a new year, the pages are blank, and our desire is to start writing new stories, plans, life projects, dreams, and goals.

I think many of us, like me, have been still reeling from the events that surprised us at the start of 2026. We're still pinching ourselves to make it all happen, haha. And so, at least for me personally, I'm still immersed in mixed emotions, and honestly, I haven't had a chance to organize new projects or concrete ideas because I'm still waiting to see what happens with those that have been on hold for many years.

But I'm taking it easy, keeping an eye on my surroundings. I literally lived each day of January under the motto "One day at a time," focused on what came up, addressing the delicate issues, and of course, celebrating the special moments. January isn't just the month that starts a blank calendar for new and wonderful life stories; it's also my birthday month. And although many of us joke about birthdays in January and the tight budget, there are always ways to celebrate beautifully because it all depends on your attitude.

I even saved a Christmas hallaca to have a laugh with my January-style birthday cake, but since we never plan things ourselves, fate always plans first. That same day I woke up with flu-like symptoms, and to top it off, an impressive downpour started (they say it's because I like to eat from a paila, hahaha), so I spent my birthday in bed, in pajamas, drinking chicken soup, watching a Friends marathon, with a hallaca cake, another simple tres leches cake that I made early to send to my friends, and a pizza as a gift just for me, delivered by a delivery service. Pandemic style, zero contact so as not to infect anyone.

To sum up January, I started it, of course, welcoming 2026 in Christmas pajamas, lighting candles to pray for the new year, protecting my pack from the fireworks that lasted almost half an hour, praying for all the homeless animals on the streets without protection, and hoping they would find safe shelters. On the second day of the month, I started my pre-birthday shopping and enjoyed my first coffee of the year at a café in the city.

On the third day, the surprises began, and they're still coming. My oldest cat got sick and we had to take him to the hospital, but he's much better now, thank God. It was beautiful to see the rest of the pack focused on every second of that situation, keeping vigil near him in solidarity, but not too close because he had a needle in his paw and I was afraid they would hurt him.

The lessons and learning continued, because all three computers broke down and I had to call a technician to help me fix it… right now I'm managing the digital situation with one of the computers in makeshift repair mode while the others are being revived and I'm working miracles to find the budget to pay for all of this. I'm still connected, albeit intermittently, but with faith. Solutions always come.

I haven't been able to fully engage in training because I've had to spend more time at home; in that respect, January was on hold, but I've tried my best to take care of my diet, which was quite disrupted over Christmas. On the other hand, I managed to revive my reading project, which I had put on hold, selecting a very interesting collection for this year. As you can see, January has been quite eventful.

My business ventures have been a bit quiet due to the events of January, but I've been active with short-term ideas and projects. I called it a month of forced rest. That said, every outing has allowed me to walk and clear my mind and enjoy the city's natural spaces, something that relaxes me immensely. I've enjoyed the araguaney trees blooming quite early and taken advantage of the time to take photographs.

I've celebrated beautiful moments and remembered sad ones; I celebrated the new baby that's about to arrive at my brother's house, my granddaughter's birthday, and Magallanes' qualification, my favorite team since I can remember… but I also sadly remembered my mother's passing in January.

I have nothing more to say but thank you, January, you've become a symbolic month, numbers included… and welcome, February, I hope you bring us much love. Thank you all for visiting my blog… happy start to the week.
