 * Earlier in the month, I found out that I was expecting. It’s welcome news, but was admittedly a surprise to find out about it. I’m excited and thrilled at this new chapter in my life, but another part of me is kind of nervous at the thought of being a first-time parent. OhKayeSierra (talk) 17:49, 31 July 2019 (UTC)

 * I finished improving Fred Rogers for GAC! The goal was to at least get it through GAC before the Tom Hanks movie comes out in November, since there's no way we'd be able to get it through FAC before then, since it would take way too much research and work.  (I predict that his article will get more traffic at that time, and will appear on the list here at the Signpost.)  I had not taken the trailer being released last week into account, though, so I was a little disappointed and felt like I had let Mr. Rogers down.  But a friend told me that he'd be very proud of me, and would tell us that we did a wonderful job, which made me feel better because it's probably true.  Fortunately, the traffic hadn't increased all that much, anyway.  Learning about Mr. Rogers, someone I've always admired because of his positive messages, has been a joy and inspiration.

 * Alberta currently has zero fires burning out-of-control, yay. Plenty of rain this year. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 02:27, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Lots of things are making me happy this month, actually. Most are off-wiki and involve just enjoying my summer vacation. Clovermoss (talk) 03:50, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
