[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Welcome to This Day in Barrington History” title_align=”separator_align_left”][vc_column_text]Welcome to January 20th and Day 20 of 365 in Barrington, Illinois! 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.
On this day, January 20th in 1889, Leadbelly, (Huddi William Ledbetter), Blues musician, who wrote ‘Goodnight Irene’ and ‘The Rock Island Line’ was born. He’s also well known for popularizing Midnight Special, a traditional folk song thought to have originated among prisoners in the American South. Covered by Credence Clearwater Revival on their 1969 Willie and the Poor Boys album, The song refers to the passenger train Midnight Special and its “ever-loving light” which is reminiscent of imagery from gospel songs about the light of salvation. Now that’s something worth singing about!

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If you’ve got worn, uneven, or outdated stone and want to transform it without starting from scratch, we’ve got you covered.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. 💪✨
