A Glimpse into August: Birthday, Dates, and Everyday Moments

It's been so hot lately, I'm scared to go outside! I wish the cool weather would come soon!
August 5th was my birthday! I finally got a Dyson! (♡ ꒰ˆ. . ˆ ྀིྀིྀིྀིྀིྀིྀི꒱) Thank you to my husband for the gift, even though we both live on allowances!
I took a day off, and my husband took a half-day, so we went on a date for the first time in a while!
We wondered where to go, and ended up visiting the arboretum near our house, then headed to Haenggung-dong, and finally to our omakase reservation.
The entrance fee was 4,000 won, but half price for Suwon residents! While walking, we saw the Ilwol Reservoir next to it, and it looked so nice that we should visit next time.
The arboretum was bigger than I thought, and there was even a cafe inside. It would be nice to have a relaxing date there when the weather is nice. ☁️
I even brought a cute friend home from the arboretum!
Haenggung-dong 'Wooded Coffee'
As soon as I walked in, a cute friend greeted me!
We looked around a few accessory shops, passed by Banghwasuryujeong Pavilion, and went to dinner.
The omakase was so satisfying for the price! I enjoyed it so much.
You have to blow out the candles! It was the same cake as last year, which was kind of shocking!
August 7th
After my day shift, I went to the courthouse and then to Jeongdon in Gwanggyo!
We kept missing each other, so I received it like a carrot (market transaction)! My bouquet... It's so pretty!
August 9th
Made mentaiko mayo onigiri before my evening shift! But I forgot to put the seaweed on it!
August 11th
For dinner, my husband made lumpy rice balls and potato salad based on Jung Jae-hyung's recipe! We didn't really like the sour taste, so next time I should try making the sauce with a sweeter yogurt!
My husband finished work early, and the evening weather was so nice that day, so we casually went out and discussed the next budget and held a family meeting!

One day while working evening shifts...
Making a mobile in the middle of the night!
August 19th
It's so hot, but the sky is so pretty these days. ☁️☁️☁️ We have to stay indoors though...
August 21st
My husband's birthday! I bought him a gift at Hyundai Department Store in Pangyo and went to eat Peking duck.
Since our birthdays are in the same month, it feels like we'll be eating a lot of delicious food this month!
'Pangyo Ururu'
If you make a reservation in advance, you can use a quiet room, and valet parking is free, which was so convenient and nice!
Still, it's a birthday, so we have to blow out the candles! I secretly bought a slice of cake the day before and we blew out the candles.
The cute bear is now in a flowerpot!
August 22nd
One day, Marimo rice ball!
August 23-24
I went to Ozeje with my high school friends. It's as delicious as Jeongdon! So tender...
The next day, I saw a goods keyboard at the National Museum of Korea. It's expensive and sold out, but so pretty.
It was a fun gathering, but... I think I was stressed without realizing it because of my busy schedule + presentation + training these days, so after the gathering, my heart felt so tangled and I couldn't untangle it. I hated myself for that, and I broke down in front of my husband...
These days are inevitable, but I'm glad my husband was there...
In September, I hope I don't torment myself! I hope I can live with more and more happiness and joy!
