I don’t know about you guys, but my August was nuts. It really was a mix of the good, the bad, and the ugly. My dad just had his 60th birthday and started his sixth decade right in the hospital. He’s doing a lot better now thankfully and was able to return home after one overnight stay, but I know it wasn’t how he planned to celebrate the big 6-0.
Thankfully, the month wasn’t all bad. In fact, I’d say it was mostly pretty damn good, just very busy. Mr. Moth and I started pre-gaming for the Halloween season by going to the ticket launch party for Theatre Bizarre and going to the inaugural Carniville of Madness, a 1920’s themed event where you dress up, watch aerialists, burlesque performances, sideshow acts, play carnival games, check out vendors selling various oddities and crafts, etc.
I also got to go stay a very fun weekend out of town with Mrs. and Mr. Cupcakes & Machetes and my fur nieces and nephew, as well as hang out with most of my book club ladies, so that was fun too. There was also a big work party, 2 birthday parties, and other shenanigans so this month didn’t leave me with much free time for reading, writing, or drawing. Fall is on its way though, and that is always a creative season for me, so hopefully I can make up for the lost time asap and get working on some of my projects I have going.
This weekend I’m ending the month by doing a LOT of yard work. By the time September officially begins, our backyard should be looking vastly different. This labor day weekend is pretty much all work and no play even though I’m off from work, but that’s okay. Happy Labor Day to those of you who celebrate it, and wishes for a happy weekend to everyone! ❤

I need to work on my Halloween costume. This is my favorite time of the year starting in September. I love Halloween AND Christmas, each for different reasons ♥

I agree, it really is an amazing time of year! ^_^ Do you know what you’re being yet for Halloween? Christmas has really grown on me over the past few years. I used to be such a grinch because it stresses me out so much. 😛

I’m doing a sort of fairy queen person. I need to get some ears or ear jewelry to make them look pointed, and I kinda want an under bust corset if I can find a good one. I have a pretty dress and a horned headdress. I know I can put something good together 🙂

Hope your dad is doing much better 🙂 ❤
August was a weird one for me as well.
Let's hope for a lovely autumn for both of us! ❤
