  • After 2 weeks off and holiday (but that was from my budget) I have spent up DD off school so eating me out of house and home but it's good feeling to have tea made for me when i get in - so think I should just hold on until September's NSD challenge

    Lollypop can't you trip him down the stairs or something:confused:

    Hope you manage to find something relatively cheap to do to avoid him:eek:

    I managed another NSD today - needed to go out but basically couldnt be bothered:rolleyes:

    Lol - maybe I should, although even that would involve spending too much time with him!

    I had another NSD today (well, yesterday now). I had planned on it, but very nearly didn't make it. I was at a friend's far later than expected, and was absolutely starving, so thought I'd get something and cut back later in the week. But by the time I got off the bus at my end everywhere was shut. So really today's was an accident. My mum has some Weight Watchers chocolate eclairs in the freezer, which are defrosting as I type. I would have preferred something savoury, but they will do.

    I was hoping for an NSD yesterday but had a poorly Pup to take to the vet. He has to go back tomorrow to have the dressing changed so you can imagine the sort of money we're talking here _pale_ Thankfully we've got insurance, but have to pay up front first & wait for reimbursement.
    So methinks some serious challenging for me in the weeks to come--I must of known I'd need all that extra when I used the newspaper coupons earlier in the month, so at least we won't starve!
