I realize that the Story may be broadly used by TS. I didn’t know these things existed.I am submitting a story (collectively with any related images, video, or audio material and with any related material provided at a later date, the “Story”) to Creste LLC (“TS”) via the story sharing feature of the website. But SMA is a thing and you should be aware of it. I haven’t looked into it lately, though, so I don’t know how well the treatments are working. SMA is one of the more well-known Muscular Dystrophies and they’ve been making a good effort to stop its progression. Despite being diagnosed with SMA type 2 for years (my diagnosis changed to UCMD a while ago), I had no idea it had its own awareness month. August is “Spinal Muscular Atrophy awareness” month. Bacon, tomato, grilled cheese from Panera with a cup of tomato soup for dipping. And now that I’ve been thinking about food, I’m hungry. Four if you count hamburgers as sandwiches. But I’ve already had at least three sandwiches this month, so I guess it’s kind of fitting. It’s also “national panini” month, which is just a toasted sandwich, so it’s kind of redundant. I’ll also need someone to bring me brownies. But I don’t eat brunch, so I’ll have to eat brownies at some other point during the day. Why? Because someone wanted an excuse to eat more brownies. August is “national brownies at brunch” month.

It all depends on how you and your partner(s) express your love. It’s not about grand gestures and all that crap you read in romance novels, but it is about the small things. This one is about taking a hard look at your romantic relationship(s) and acknowledging whether or not you’re putting in the energy to maintain it(them) correctly. It also encourages you to share your happy moments, to talk about them.Ģ. Life sucks, but I didn’t die! Or work was horrible, but I saw a butterfly at lunch.

It’s not about ignoring the bad stuff and negative feelings, but about trying to find the good things in life even when you’re overwhelmed. Since its inception, it has grown into a month-long thing. According to its description, the Secret Society of Happy People (which is a real thing, surprisingly) wanted to dedicate a day to the concept of choosing to be happy despite whatever problems may be making that difficult. So, I decided to make a list of five things that I didn’t know August was the month of. And apparently August is much more than the month of stifling heat and increased mosquito attacks. Like when your friends post on social media that they’re eating waffles because it’s “national waffle day” or whatever and you just want to know who decided that and why you never knew about it. Howdy, howdy! It’s mid-August and I have no idea what to write about, so I decided to look up and see if August had any interesting “month of” or “day of” things to celebrate.
