This month. It was SO hot here. Like make a girl crabby and snarky hot. I'm so glad to say goodbye to July! lol Nothing bad happened just a lot of little stuff to keep on top of and work on. So it was busy and has me ready for a nap.
On the Home Front
- I USO-d a lot. Yall. A LOT. I have to miss some of my dates in August so was doing extra in July and whew it was exhausting!
- Did some house projects. Battled ants. And started taming my overgrown yard. This is where most of my time went, really. I'm trying to get a lot done before my trip and my birthday as kind of a birthday present to myself.
- I did a little exploring in my town and won a gift card during an event they hosted which was fun.
- Went to silent book club.
- Did a little walking.
- Started couponing and joined some rebate apps which was an interesting kind of fun.
- I did a lot of blogging. lol I'm actually just finishing up my very last August post (minus the photo posts) which is pretty dang exciting.
- And I have one January 2018 review done and scheduled!
- One of my authors had a book release so things were a bit lively on that front
- Started TWO new features!
- Got my reading groove back! I'd really not been interested in many books lately but am finally feeling good again. It's not taking me days to figure out what I want to read next so...yay!

Soooo. The auction was supposed to happen this month.

Nothing! Other than the auction I'm taking August easy.
It's my birthday month and I have a quick out of town trip planned.

I started two new features on the blog. One about finances and one about planning. I'm having a good time with both so far!

I had a pretty good review month! I enjoyed a lot of what was on the blog. Nice solid reads. Most I read earlier this year or even last year, though. lol
I was able to get 2 off my Blogger Shame pile which was exciting as all get out.
