August: Month @ a Glance {08.01.25}

Hello and happy Friday friends! I hope your week has been wonderful and you are looking forward to a fun weekend ahead. Tonight we're getting together with some friends to see a movie and grab dinner, then the rest of the weekend will be relatively quiet.  It's hard to believe July is already over and we are already into August. I feel like we just started July, yet here I am doing the August post.

ON THE AGENDA THIS MONTH

1. Movies and dinner with friends. Originally I was supposed to go up to Traverse City with some friends this weekend, but due to scheduling conflicts we made the decision to just do something local and see a movie and grab dinner. I'm excited.

2. Brunch + bookstore date. On Sunday, I'm heading to a new brunch spot and bookstore with some girlfriends and I am so excited. I was able to go to a brunch of book stores in Chicago so it will be so exciting to check out another book store.

3. Beetlejuice the Musical. I'm excited to go see Beetlejuice again with my friend. I really enjoyed it the first time we saw it so it will be fun to see it again.

4. Weddings. In August we have 2 weddings which will be very fun. I feel like some years we have a bunch of weddings then others we have none so this year month will be fun.

5. Friend visiting. In a last minute change of events, we have a friend coming to visit us for the weekend which will be fun - it has been quite some time since we saw them so it will be fun to hang out.

6. Book Clubs. This month I have a few book clubs in which I am participating:

• Fantasy Book Club
• Mystery/Thriller Book Club
• Thrills and Chills Book Club
• Dark Romance Book Club

I am also participating in a buddy ready with my friend too! Check out our Instagram for more information: https://www.instagram.com/p/DMirkBzv8zV

7. Pottery classes. In August, I am doing two pottery-esque classes. One is tile glazing at a local place called Pewabic Pottery and the other is a pottery party with girlfriends. I'm excited to do both with my girlfriends.

GOALS THIS MONTH

1. 30 days of yoga/stretching. I tried (and failed) in July to do yoga or stretching every day for the month but honestly just fell apart about half way through the month. So for this month I would like to do stretches every day to help with my lower back pain.

2. Daily skin care. I would like to be better about caring for my skin so in August I am going to work to get in the habit of doing my whole skin care routine daily. My skin has been so dry so I'm hoping this will help with the dryness and irritation.

Like previous months I will be using a tracker that I created which was inspired by Evermore Paper Co. Their website is still down, so I am using my version I created for tracking this month. I'm hoping their site will go back up soon, but if you'd like to use mine, just click on the image at the end of this post - to be clear their version was free and this version is free. I will not earn any income from this printable.

Well I think that is everything for today! I hope you have a great month!



Question of the Day: What do you have planned in August? 

Have a wonderful day,
Jackie
