August has been a very busy month for me which means the month has flown by. I started out the month by taking a trip to a local bookshop and treating myself to some books. I just needed to go on a little self care trip and it was well needed.
I’ve posted on TikTok every single day this month which is such an achievement for me. Quite often I forget to post on social media accounts but that has not happened yet with TikTok yet. I am loving posting on there and watching my little profile grow. If you do not already follow me on TikTok, go and give me a follow! I’m @loisreadsbooks!
In the middle of the month I went with a few friends on a weekend away to Scarborough. It was so lovely to spend time with friends, chat, eat delicious things and spend a lot of time reading. It was such a wonderful trip and I hope we can do it again very soon.
I took myself to the cinema again this month to see Free Guy. It was such an amazing film and an excellent way to shut off from the world for a couple of hours. I would highly recommend giving the film a watch.
My family and I went on a few days out this month. Now that I have my own house and my sister, Katie, lives at university, we are making more time to have days out together. It is lovely to just go shopping with family or go for a meal or even just a walk!
Finally, this month ended with more decorating beginning on our house. We are getting a few more rooms ready to be changed and updated and I cannot wait. I am looking forward to finally finishing the kitchen off and having a comfy living room to sit in!
I’m looking forward to seeing what September brings and how much further we can get with decorating!
That is it, August is over. I cannot wait to see what September holds. What has August been like for you and what have you read? Let me know in the comments below!
