how did august get here so quickly? seriously, is anyone else feeling like they blinked and july just disappeared? i feel like i got here just in time to throw out the welcome mat for august.
august is my birthday month and yup, that makes me a leo. i love astrology, but honestly, not everything they write about "a leo" fits me. have you ever taken the time to read "who you are" astrologically wise and found it to be filled with a few, "whoa, that's not me?"
now granted, they have the impatient part right and i know i'm extremely loyal to a fault, but arrogant and dominating...no way. i've also read that supposedly "we don't share well with others"...huh, are you kidding me. i always share. okay fine, i have been known to actually lick the last cookie that's left in order to stop anyone else from eating it...but, whatever. {seriously though, i love to share.}
oh, and if i read one more time that "we" are hugely opinionated, i'll scream. sure if you ask for my opinion regarding anything, i'll be totally honest with you, but otherwise, i am fifty shades of grey. do i enjoy debating a bit about certain issues? sure, who doesn't...but is my way {or my thoughts} the only way...nope, not at all.
so hello august. i've been waiting for you.

This means you begin celebrating on day 1, right? Happy birthday, Leo! I hope you have 30 days of fun.
ReplyDeleteOops 31. I even recited the "30 days hath September" rhyme and still got it wrong.
ReplyDeleteJuly lasted slightly longer than June, but June was only five minutes long, so... I can't believe it's August!
ReplyDeleteI adore this photo! (And you, you always make me smile)
Oh my, that is such a very beautiful photograph. I love it!
ReplyDeleteMay your birthday month be filled with many happy moments.
ReplyDeleteI know. Where did it go? And being in Holland where the wewather is reasonably cool and the crops are gorgeous in the Dutch landscapes I feel like picking pumpkins. Happy Birthday month! Mine is Sept. and I'm a Virgo. I fit the description. xo Jenny
ReplyDeleteHello August, I have to say I am all ready for you...Sweet Son is a Leo and I have to say I love him to pieces. Huge hearts is what I'd mention about Leos, hearts as big as the world xo
ReplyDeletePs: I almost forgot...Happy Birthday month to you :-)
ReplyDeleteWe had so much rain in July that I thought it would never be done with. Now to get through the heat of August and on to the cool breezes of Autumn that lure me out of the house.
ReplyDeleteThe astrology part in most books is general. To really get an accurate reading, you need to look at all the planets, how they cross, what is in positive or more challenging alignment and which houses all your planets are in. If you know your rising sign, it's quite likely you may be more like that one than the birth sign. Rick's a good example -- he's Cancer by birth, Leo by the number of planets there, the houses, and the rising sign. I'm a Leo, too -- but with a lot of Virgo...
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Month. Me, too!
I'm a Leo too!!
ReplyDeleteI love August and am oh so glad to welcome her, too.
ReplyDeleteHope your birthday lasts the whole month long.

I love this color.
ReplyDeleteTime flies indeed.
ReplyDeleteThought provoking comments you've made here. Leo, huh? Well. Happy Birthday, then, cookie-kickin, fiercely-loyal friend.
I'm a gemini, and what they say about us is MOSTLY on point with my character. One of our worst traits is moodiness. Shameful, it is! But so true. It makes us very unpredictable.
Here comes a Gemini ... run for your lives.
August is a good month to celebrate your birth. Enjoy it all month long and enjoy being that lion.
ReplyDeletelick the last cookie... HAHA!
ReplyDelete(good idea)
