[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Welcome to Day 11 of 365! You’ll find our stories of the day – past, present & future (events) – right here on today’s DailyPage.
Because every day has its own rhythm, we’re sharing a song of the day here at 365Barrington.com.
Today’s features American blues musician Slim Harpo. His most successful and influential recordings included ‘I’m a King Bee’ (1957), ‘Rainin’ In My Heart’ (1961), and ‘Baby Scratch My Back’ (1966). A master of the blues harmonica, Slim’s stage name was derived from the popular nickname for that instrument, the “harp”. He was born on this day, January 11th, in 1924.
One of my first jobs was as a radio DJ hosting a blues show at WEFT 90.1 fm Community Radio as a freshman at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. They had walls and walls of vintage vinyl which sort of blew my mind. Ok so it might not have been a paid gig but it was THE BEST! I loved every minute because I appreciate how some music takes you back… in the same way memories of your grandmother connect you to a fascinating world before your time.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

Bringing old stone back to life 🔨♻️
This bluestone has history. Instead of tearing it out and tossing it, we carefully pulled it up, cleaned it, re-cut where needed, and laid it again like new. Same stone. Fresh look. Built to last for decades.
Renew. Recycle. Remasonry done right.
If you’ve got worn, uneven, or outdated stone and want to transform it without starting from scratch, we’ve got you covered.
👉 DM us to schedule a site visit
👉 Follow for more stone transformations
👉 Let’s rebuild it better this time

Nutrition Tip of the Week 🍽️
How to Eat Out Without Blowing Up Your Progress
✔️ Protein + veggies first
✔️ Add the carb you actually want
✔️ Sauces on the side when possible
✔️ Enjoy it → move on → no guilt
Eating out doesn’t ruin results.
Overthinking it does.
Progress is built on what you do most days — not one meal with friends 🍕🍷

A healthier new year doesn’t need extremes — it needs consistency.
If you’re feeling off, stuck, or “starting over again”… start here.
These simple habits make the biggest difference when you actually do them 👇
🍽️ Plan your meals (future you will thank you — don’t wing it)
😴 Protect your sleep with a consistent bedtime
🏋️♀️ Strength train 2–3x/week (yes, this counts as self-care)
🌞 Get outside daily — even 5–10 minutes helps
📵 Log off earlier at night (your nervous system needs it)
🤝 Have accountability — doing it alone is overrated
Small habits. Done daily.
That’s how real progress happens. 💪✨
