August Goals: Soaking up Summer

Happy August! Did July go as fast for you as it did for me? I feel like I was just celebrating Canada day a few days ago, but in actuality as I’m typing this it’s already the on of BC day! July was a very busy month  full of hard work with some fun sprinkled in between. We got to see both sides of family this month which was so great. I love spending time with our families, but that’s become even more important since we’re keeping our social circles small.

I’m really looking forward to August. We’re headed to the beach for vacation and I couldn’t be more excited to get away from the house for a few days, enjoy a beautiful beach and eat at restaurants!! On top of vacation we have many beach and lake days planned with friends, family birthdays and household projects planned this month.

WHAT’S HAPPENING IN AUGUST:

• Beach days with friends
• Family Birthdays
• BC day long weekend
• Going on summer vacation!!!

WHAT I LOVED IN JULY:

• Celebrating family birthdays!
• Having dinner with my parents and siblings (the first time since Covid!)
• Finishing projects around the house
• Having breakfast at the beach
• Getting my temporary promotion extended into the fall!

BOOKS READ:

1. January: F-Factor Diet – I’m following (and loving) Tanya Zuckerbrot’s F-Factor Diet, so this was a must read and was so informative!
2. February: Is everyone Hanging out without me? – I started but did not finish. The first third had me laughing out loud and I’m excited to finish it this month.
3. March: Girl Wash Your Face – I started this book a few years back, but finally revisited it and finished in March.
4. April: No book this month
5. May: The Miracle Morning – After feeling like my work from home mornings were chaotic I decided I needed to make a change. This book has helped tremendously with implementing a morning routine that enters my mind, works out my energy and prepares me properly for the day.
6. June: The One Thing – This book was pretty good, it such a basic concept but sometimes that’s what you need to hear to re focus your thinking.
7. July: No book this month
