Happy July! This is my favorite month because it is 100% work free. I work a little into June and I go back on August 8th, but July is totally mine.
It was another low key week. I think we are making some progress with house breaking the boys. Next step is to begin to expand the area they are permitted to be in and transition the training to more area.
I’m starting to really feel inflation in my bank account. With the electric bills being higher, groceries costing so much more, and just overall cost of living rising, we are struggling. As my mother used to say, “There is too much month at the end of the money”. I’m trying to cut back in areas, but things are really tight.
If you live in the US, I hope you have a safe holiday! I HATE the 4th of July because my dogs do not like fireworks. Its so annoying. People set them off for like a week straight around here.
So, whats new with you this week? Did you read any of the same books I did? Did you find any great book deals I need to grab ASAP? Let me know in the comments!

I hope you have a relaxing, safe and happy 4th of July. I hear you on inflation. When there are only a few corporations making a product (oligarchy) they can charge what they want. Corps are making record profits. That’s what happened with eggs as there are only 4 main producers. It went to $5 and now back to $1.12. I’m so happy you have this month and your new job is something to look forward to a better situation. You won’t have school next year, right? Between ARCs and the library, I spend little on reading so that can be an inexpensive hobby. Enjoy!

I hope you have a great weekend! I totally empathize with you about the issue of inflation.
The fireworks have been going off for days here too. *eye roll* I love fireworks, don’t get me wrong, but on the 4th lol- not all week. the animals are not a fan. ;
Yeah cost of living has really risen. I am really missing the pre covid years where it was so much more affordable. Even though I make way more now, it certainly doesn’t feel like it haha
I love fireworks only on the 4th!!! haha I seriously don’t think they should be allowed on days that aren’t the holiday. I live on the outskirts of the city though, so I don’t get too exposed to them.
I’m lucky that my dogs don’t really seem to care about fireworks for the most part. Not that they don’t bark at them a little when we’re outside and they hear them. I’m not looking forward to when my student loan payments start again. Things are really going to be hurting for me then too! I hope your 4th is nice!
How wonderful that you get to have July off! Happy July!
Hooray for an entire work-free month! That must be heavenly. 🙂 Oh yeah, the fireworks started here Friday or Saturday night. I don’t get it. Go crazy all you want on the 4th… but why for a solid week??
Enjoy your month off! I hear you on the fireworks. They’ve been going off here since Fridays and my poor pets are not ok.
I agree with your inflation comment Samantha! But enjoy your month off!
Hope you enjoy your time off and good luck training the dogs. Sounds like you’re doing great with that so far.
