  • Hi MrsP.

    Dont worry I have not been doing well with the £20 challenge either. Starting another one tommorow, hopefully it will go hand in hand with lots of NSD's, which I need.

    Take care

  • Morning everyone,

    Hope everybody is well and had a good weekend.

    I was working yesterday, but I did manage to make a cake last night to take into work, so not to bad.

    However, today I am in some pain, as this morning I have pulled my back somehow and it is killing. :mad:

    I have took some painkillers, just hope it gets better as badminton starts again tommorow.

  • Morning everyone,

    Hope everybody is well.

    I managed a NSD day yesterday, so that is the first of the month.

    However, my back is still playing up, but got to go to work. No rest for the wicked.

    Sorry I have not posted any updates for a while, I have been busy doing my new spreadsheet. Hopefully should get it finished tonight and then I will be firing on all cyclinders.

    Anyway bye for now

  • Hi Bowski,

    Hope my back gets better soon, as the badminton season starts soon and I need to practice. I have been told by the nurse to take Ibuprofen for a week and use a hot water bottle when driving and in bed.

    :rotfl:

    So I will have to buy one today, there goes my NSD.

    Hope you get your internet sorted soon, and have a good holiday


    Take care

    MF - sorry to hear about your back. I have two hotties - I love them - I often sit at night watching TV with a hottie at my back and its absolute bliss.:D

    Well done on your NSD yesterday - I managed my first NSD of the month yesterday.

  • Thanks MrsP,

  • Well no badminton tonight, I was looking forward to it. But I am not going to risk it with my back being sore.

    I think I will use the time constructively and crack on with my spreadsheet. I have been letting things slip lately and need to get back on track. I have diaries and account books and lots of different spreadsheets everywhere. So I thought I would construct one spreadsheet with several sheets on it, which are all linked to each other. I have got one for my acccounts, one for savings and debt. One called MMAD (Make money a day), one for PAD (Payment a day) as well as a few other things. That way when I make money or make a payment it automatically links it to my accounts and keeps everything up to date.

    Hopefully with everything on one spreadsheet, i can see how things are going easier, and clap down on any extra spending.
