  • Another NSD for me today :)

  • Woo-hoo

    One NSD last Thursday (too busy to post, but wow!) and another today.

    I can't believe it - had never done one in the past and now I've got three - I'm going to see if I can smash my target!

    Saturday was NSD number 5 for me, and hoping to have another one today.
  • Doh - I've just realised yesterday was an NSD as well!! I went to the shop to get ingredients to make a cheese cake - but totally forgot that my mum actually paid for it - so since the cash didn't come from my purse - it doesn't count as my spend! :rotfl:

    That's me upto NSD 7 with 9 more to go - provided all goes to plan today!!
