July has actually been a really good month! I've been feeling much more positive this month, I've been doing more fun things and work has been really good too. I've also finally started binge watching Bobs Burgers. I love that show, I honestly can't decide who my favourite character is!

Lammas, a.k.a Lughnasdh, is named after the Celtic Sun god Lugh and marks the beginning of the harvest season. Lammas falls on August 1st and is celebrated with feasting, games and song. We welcome in the impending darkness and prepare for Autumn!

I feel like I haven't been tracking my spending habits all that well this year, so I thought this month I would try a weekly budget round up! It's definitely going to help me see how I'm spending my money and what I need to change. I haven't included my savings or what I owed people, this is literally just to see how I spend after that.

This isn't my usual type of post but as I've finished some of my favourite products this month, I thought I'd share them with you! So here are my three favourite Body Shop products that I've used on a virtually daily basis lately.

The minimalist lifestyle has many benefits worth considering. For starters, it encourages you to spend less and save more, leading to financial stability. Likewise, you focus on acquiring fewer but high-quality possessions, eliminating excess clutter. The minimalist lifestyle is also stress-free, as you have fewer things to clean or worry about. Statistics also indicate that the minimalist home style is popular among British house hunters. So, are you planning to embrace the minimalist lifestyle? If yes, here’s how to achieve the best results.

In daily life, one must balance a number of competing priorities, such as work, school, and extracurricular activities outside of school hours. Finding the time to hang out with the people who are important to you might be challenging at times. It's an opportunity to spend some quality time together as a family without being distracted by ringing phones, glaring screens, or the need to wrap up some unfinished business at the very last minute. When was the last time you and your family did anything enjoyable together as a unit? The summer break is the ideal time for families to spend quality time together and take pleasure in each other's presence. You'll find some suggestions for activities that are suitable for the whole family and will bring you closer together in the following paragraphs.

I finally got to take my boys to Legoland! I paid for myself, Josh and Charlie to stay overnight in the Legoland hotel. It was blimming expensive, but well worth it in my opinion! We set off much later than we expected on the Saturday, and got stuck in traffic. An hours drive turned into three hours and I for one was so glad I'd booked us in overnight.
If you've read my June Budget recap, you'll know I spent a horrendous amount of money! My pay was basically what I expected - not terrible but could have been better - and now it's time to really knuckle down and curb my spending.
Oh my goodness it's finally July! Or should that be already July? June dragged like heck but also how is it nearly the summer holidays already? June did not start off great for me. I'd been feeling really depressed and I've not been able to get a GP appointment at all. I've not been coping very well at all and staying in bed all day on my days off work, I've cried at work and just generally been a sad little bean. I was definitely due a week off! But to be fair, the last couple of weeks has been so much better!
