  • I had NSD number 2 yesterday, and I expect today will be 3 (although I'll declare that at the end of the day).

    I'm going out for lunch, now basically. But my friend's paying as I got fired yesterday. Another friend bought me ice cream last night - so I guess it could be worse?

    yesterday was a NSD but not today. Spent £37.85 on bits and also taking the boys to a soft play area and lunch afterwards. Have decided to include all we spent today as I really want to tighten our belts, so the cost of the play area and lunch is coming out of Feb budget. :)
    Debts @ 20-04-14 = £10,987

    Number 3 for me today - amazed at what a drastic effect this is having on my spending in general - even on spend days I'm MILES more careful than I used to be. Went shopping with OH today - and even though it was his turn to pay I didn't bother with a magazine or any ridiculous 'treaty' food - just seemed like a big waste of money. Obvious really, isn't it? Oh, and I had a little Euromillions win (just a teensy one) yesterday, so it's all good!

    Thanks. I'm not feeling as bad as I expected. I was suspended on Tuesday, and the three days were pretty bad. But I'm glad it's sorted, at least. I am in a bit of a panic as to how I'll find another job, but people do - I'll be ok.

    Didn't get an NSD today, although the only money I spent was money my dad gave me this morning. I did a food shop and bought some cigarettes.
