  • Another NSD for me today so that makes 13 in total. Am going to declare 13 for this month and not feel too bad if I have a bar of choc tmrw - doing a long shift so I will need it.

    Big Mumma, can you put me down for 15 NSDs for November?

    Thank-you so much for this thread..

  • I'm definitely not going to manage my target this month. Even though I'm only one day short, and there's a day left, it's just not do-able. I was going to avoid spending this Saturday, but then today (Friday) in work I was asked to work extra hours, meaning I have a 12 hour day. Since I've been out of work so long when working long hours I need to make sure I properly look after myself, so will be buying some fruit and other things!
  • Only made 17 this month but took kids away last week which was abit last minute.

    I'll not declare my total as there's too much time left in the day :p & last night we succumbed to the lure of big, greasy chip shop chips :o Not as bad as it could have been, cuz it was only the chips where it would have been a whole lot more BMSE [Before MSE] :T Still a :eek: at the price tho..£5:60 for 3 chips & a battered sausage!!!!

    Well I managed 1 more on thursday which takes me up to 7/10 and so far today is on track to be a nsd but I want a takeaway tonight :rotfl:

    Will try harder next month! Not bad for a first attempt though. Thanks BigMummaF for running the thread :)

    All things considered, I'm both surprised & pleased with my final tally of 12 for October. I knew it was going to be tight, so anything above 2 was a real bonus :p
    Well Done Fellow Pledgees, on however many NSDs you achieved :T
