Jules, of Pancakes and French Fries, hosts a monthly color story series. Each month, you see, she recaps the month before with a series of photos, each woven together with a theme of color. She’s inviting us to join the fun! You can find the details here. As you see, ‘Cotton’ wrapped August; ‘Russet’ shall color September.
Dear August, You sucked.
Oh wait, that’s not at all how it’s done, now is it?! Please hold. {rewind}
Dear August, I feel as though you sucked.
Oh sure, you gave me flowers …
You made certain my days would be filled with friends and family; you even went so far as to throw in a cute animal or two …
But behind it all you were wily, slovenly, and otherwise up to no good …
Just when it would appear we might be friends, you’d turn on me, like a Praying Mantis on her honeymoon. Remember that particularly hard day, when I slipped off the deck? Sure, I wasn’t that hurt; and laying in the grass bemoaning every injustice of the last three years may have been going a bit far. But it’s not like you were without fault. You, my friend, hit below the belt.
Thankfully, the time has come to bid you adieu…
I’m moving on, forging ahead, shaping up and shipping out. And while I hope to never see the likes of you again, you tend to cast a broad shadow.
I guess that leaves me no choice, but to look up …
And trust that He will make my path straight—no matter how catawampus you may have made it appear.
Sincerely,
Amy
oh, I did not know you had such a bad month! I´m sorry!! 🙁
I hope september will make it up to you!
My recent post uugh!
I love your color story posts! I keep telling myself I'm going to join in, but I don't carry my camera around as much as I once did. I had a hard time letting August go, but I'm looking forward to the fall 🙂
