    Well done to everyone whether you've made your target or not. Brilliant achievements all around :j:j

    I'm finishing January with 26 NSDs and I'm soooooo pleased with myself (never mind that a large percentage of them were due to being house-bound because of the snow, I still got there:j).

    Think we deserve a celebration, so

    Have to declare 9 for January (1 day short of my target but not bad for a beginner !)

    I'll go for 10 again in Feb I think.

    Thanks for the January thread :beer:

    You're right Solvent, we should be celebrating! And it's wonderful to hear how positive people are :T regardless of meeting their target or not. Who would have thought that trying not to spend money, would highlight so many habits that we have acquired over our financial life-times :o
    WELL DONE US!

    Well, Ive kind of lost track since I last posted, I know I had a couple more NSD but I can't remember which days so I'll just stick at reaching my target which is where I was when I last posted.

    We've just sold our house so everything is a bit hectic, scary, exciting and keeping fingers tightly crossed!

    Well done to everyone for however many NSD you've achieved and good luck for February - see you all there x
