Carpet and a long haired dog - help!

I just got my first rug after living with only hardwood floors for 7 years. I have a long haired dog, and before I bought my house with hardwood, my apartment was fully carpeted. I had a Bissel and hair would always get trapped in the roller. When I moved, I said no more!

Well no more has ended, I have a rug now and I need a vacuum.
I’ve been looking at the Shark Lift-Away Upright. But I’m also a little bit intrigued by a bagged vacuum because I hate emptying the canister and having dust and her fur go everywhere.

My priorities:

  1. Motor won’t burn up after a year like my black and decker handheld

  2. Doesn’t make me have to cut hair out of the roller every week

  3. Is a reasonable enough price for one area rug and an 850 sq ft house (~$250 unless I find it on marketplace)

I recently started a new job and it pays biweekly. For the past five years, I’ve been paid weekly, and I always had the reassurance that every Friday I would have money.

I’m really struggling with this change to biweekly (which is silly because I was paid biweekly for years before!!). These are things I think I now have to pay more attention to, but what else am I missing?
Any tips?

  1. What dates my mortgage hits (I pay biweekly too but I think it’s my off weeks from my paycheck)
  2. Other utility bills
  3. I have a student loan and a medical bill right now
