31 Things I am Grateful for August 2022
We began phase two (moving) of our life explosion this month. Everything feels like a blur and a slow drag. I really am grateful for this opportunity to explode our life and try something new. I know this isn’t something a lot of people get to do, and I know what a privilege it is to be doing this.
This month I am grateful for:
Being able to leave a job that no longer aligned with my values
Exploring new places
Twice a week farmer’s markets
Visiting an incredible greenhouse
New plants from the community college plant sale
Playing in my dad’s garden
Writing in cute local coffee shops
Beautiful views everywhere you look
Finding cool mushrooms in my parent’s yard
Cool nights in August (what kind of witchcraft is this?)
Visiting my aunt in Asheville
DQ Blizzards
Finding a really cute store with plants, plant pots, and cute home decor
Brooklyn Nine Nine
Craft supplies from Dollar Tree
The Bridgerton soundtracks
Coffee and exploring with my brother
Mail in voting
Tomato soup made with tomatoes my dad grew in his garden
Finding a vintage word game at the town yard sale
How cute Lucy is with a big bone
Pedicures
The beginning of fall leaves (YAAAAYYYY!!!!)
Fazoli’s bread sticks
Changing my prescriptions to a pharmacy with a drive thru
Being able to tag along on a work trip with Christopher
Timbits from Tim Hortons
Seeing two Great Lakes
An afternoon in Canada
Drinking coffee at a coffee shop while it rains
Sleeping in
This month has had a lot of ups and downs. House hunting has consumed August and I am exhausted. I’m glad we were able to end the month with a trip to Michigan by adding a few fun days to the end of Christopher’s work trip.
