Ah, the heat and humidity of August remained very must the same this year - I suppose it's nice that something was unchanged, but did it really have to be that? The one good thing about August is Shark Week, which, thankfully, was also mostly unchanged.
Okay, I won't spend the entire time complaining about the weather. On to happy things - like SHARK WEEK and my ... er, Bed Shark's Bullet Journal page!
Emma remained very unhappy about my sewig machine and freaked out and insisted I play with her every time I tried to use it
Fun story - the way the extra ear pieces were packed in my new headphones had me wondering why they'd given me ONE of each size, until I found the others (days later) rolled up and under the paper that came with it (who needs to read headphone instructions?!).

Went to an AMAZING Alice in Wonderland themed birthday party!
Cleaned out/got rid of some old textbooks... somehow, I don't think I can get that refund... even though it IS unopened!
And learned a sad truth about Raggedy Ann...
I don't know if I ever had a Raggedy Ann doll, the doll I remember (and still have) was actually made by my mother. This is from the book "Deadly Choices" about the anti-vaccine movement.

Restaurants were open, though more spaced, everyone was going about their business like usual, though perhaps the strain of all the uncertainty was really beginning to wear. People weren't as willing to even give a friendly nod, and places like work the strain was beginning to show. And there's was (and still is) a long way to go...
