What do I love about August?

I love the planets all hanging in the sky. 

I love that the crickets start chirping.

I love that the pace of life seems to slow down.

I love the softer air. 

I love the easy evenings.

I love being outside almost all the time in some way or another. 

I love the events that end up in the summer: weddings, reunions, block parties. 

I love sleeping with windows open but a tiny chill so you put socks back on. 

Each month seems to have its own feeling and energy. That's what August feels like to me. 

Highlights:

- Running almost everyday

- Planets!!

- Final days of Canada hiking trip

- Talks w/ hubs

- Trying to find peace in extended family situation 

Next Week: 

- Travel well to San Fran and help Auntie #3

- Keep up spiritual practices

- Make a note for what to remember each day and start each day

- Judge less
