Thank goodness.

The internet at our house has been out or spotty at best and we've found out it is because we have an old modem. But our internet company will be glad to have us rent a new one from them for $5/month and that should take care of the problem. We'll see. Something about how our lines are now getting crowded and our old modem is getting kicked off the system first. Gotta upgrade.

Just like my poor phone. Verizon isn't going to update towers on the old system, so eventually, I'm going to have to get a new phone, even if I'm happy with my old phone. Planned obsolescence.

I'm over on my budget in groceries this month, but what really got me is that one of my cats started falling down while just walking around, so off to the vet we went. He is somewhat better now, but still a little off-balance. It is just something that sometimes happens to cats and often happens in the summertime. They don't know what causes it and don't have any way of treating or preventing it. My other cat was fine, but I went ahead and made arrangements for her to get looked over as well. Then, I knew the first kitty has some dental issues, so I'm going to take care of those now too. Boom goes the cat budget.

It is totally worth it though. I was actually sick to my stomach when he was weebling and wobbling around. My cats are pretty much kid-substitutes and I was very worried about him.

I hope to spend no money the next two days and I need to get back on track for August because it already looks to be spendy with cat dental, football tickets, and campground reservations to be made!
