TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring about the need to apply for a new visa or extension of stay in Thailand, given the approaching expiration of their multiple-entry visa sticker and the validity of their latest visa stamp. They seek clarity on whether to act before the sticker's expiration on July 23 or the stamp's validity ending on August 22. Comments advise the user to return before the 23rd for a new stamp or to apply for an extension between July 23 and August 22, ideally early to prepare any required documents.

Come back before the 23rd

FYI: You can border bounce again on or just before 23 July and get new 90days stamp which let you stay until middle of October. You can apply extension maybe September on that case.

i m from Myanmar, so it is easier for me to take a flight to yangon with budget air.

Depend on your nationality, you can just cross the border (stamped out Thailand, Stamped in/out neighbor country, stamped in Thailand at land border, or just flying to another airport and back) as long as that border (or check point) let your nationality cross.

Either is fine, just need to leave Thailand to another country and back. You could plan visit back home too.

Just the border bounce by land or can it be a short visit to Myanmar by plane too?

You can apply between 30 days and the last day of 22 Aug to an Extension of Stay based on working in Thailand at your local Immigration Office. Don't wait till the last day, best is to go early in case of more documents are needed, so you have the time to prepare and go back.

You have a permit to stay until 22 Aug. Your visa (which lets you enter Thailand) expires after 23:59 on Jul 23.
