What are you looking forward to this month? A few people close to my heart are celebrating their birthday this month. Two of them are already dead, one is my mom and the other is my friend. I have made a goal to practice water coloring each and every single day this month and to create a greeting card at least once a week. I also plan to be active here in mylot again since I was in a hiatus for several months. I hope to keep all my goals and I really expect some good things to happen this month of August.

That's only four actually. There are only four weeks in August right? And I have four friends who have birthdays this month alone. So I'm not even getting to the Christmas greeting card yet.

My family and I planned a family holiday in Holland for about 10 days, so in the second half of the month I will have to complete gaps in my work and here myLot, too, because I will not be here in the first half of the month. Good luck for you with your goals

You painted the above picture? That's so nice. August is going to be a busy month for me. There are about 5 birthday parties and 2 weddings planned

You have some good goals. My one and only grandsons birthday was this month. I set three goals for myself for August. I am doing good with two of them. I hope that you are doing good with your goals for August.

I am so sorry you lost your Mom and friend. May God bring comfort to you as you grieve these losses. I don't really have plans for August per say, trying to live one day at a time and handle well what ever may come my way.

@toniganzon I overwhelm myself some times with appointments and am glad when I have a day that I can just do whatever God leads me to do. Today I'm mostly occupied with myLot trying to reach my goal for my insurance. I believe I may hit $5.00 today which is my goal.

Because of my hectic schedule, the water coloring a day didn't happen, but I plan to go back on that. The greeting card was put on hold as well. I've been active here in my lot. My absence is only a few days now. But I try to be on here as much as I can.

It's not colored pens at all. It's a water based marker that is actually a water color. It's not an ordinary water based colored pens.
