August is a special month for me; for starters, its my birthday month! As mentioned in my last post, these past few weeks have been a bit crazy for me since I've been doing a lot of activities outside of social media; caring for my injured piggie - who is doing a lot better now - drafting up a business plan, and writing my first novel. I've been doing some art offline as well, trying to make time to be creative too.
This post will probably be all over the place but I saw so many neat things that I just wanted to share them with you all so I decided to write a post on it. To start off, Dimitar and I have been looking for more decorations for our apartment to make it more cozy. Since this is our first apartment together, we're both really excited to decorate it for the holidays, especially Halloween and Christmas; we've even talked about how we want to keep the Christmas tree up all year when we get it. It may seem like too much to some, but who says every day can't be a holiday, anyways?
We stopped at Tjmaxx, which is a home department store that practically has just about everything; clothes, food, decorations, stationary supplies, pet goods, cosmetics & more. I love shopping there because they always have a great amount of products from all over the world, all in one place. As usual though, they like to stock up for the next holiday about three months in advance and they have already started decorating for fall; I like it though.

I find myself looking up at the sky more often too. Seeing how the clouds form, especially storm clouds since they grow big and have precise outlines; it always makes me appreciate the little things that nature has to offer us. I've learned that making myself stop to appreciate the little things like the clouds, or the smell of the rain, can really make a difference in our life since they make us live in the moment.
Amongst everything I've been working on behind the scenes, I've also been creating some art here and there. I haven't had much time to be creative, but I do try to create sometime small if I'm able to. It always makes my day when I can draw in my sketchbook. With the new supplies I have from my recent collaborations with Artistro & Sakura, I have new art supplies to play with. Lately, I've been sketching in my sketchbook using my new acrylic paint pens that Artistro gifted me for a review.
