Attack April with An Alternative Approach; the NSD Challenge.

3Dogs

Hi Spoon - NSD number 17 today so I have met my upgraded TARGET - and that's it from me for April as Friday's are shopping days for us. Looking forward to setting my target for May - I will go off now and do a quick calculation ..... 3Dogs can be seen checking diary and counting on fingers

What a fun bunch you are! OH and I getting married at the end of May. Not a lot of what we are doing is typical as OH and I from different cultures so we have to meet both of our family backgrounds.

Lots has happened this year and I will be pleased if I can get the wedding sorted in time.

Waving to you all

Hope you get everything sorted, urg, I'm sure you will.

Yay! Last day of the month and I'm declaring TARGET ACHIEVED! - have found it pretty easy this month now I've got into the habit of bunching up my spends, which is less painful than it sounds. Sorry I missed the update solvent - and thanks for helping us all through another looonnnngg old month! See you in May!

jintyb

Hey Spoon - great to see you back - you were missed my dear!
Hope youre feeling ok now! Thanks again for the great job you've done keeping us all motivated !:A I might squeeze another in today who knows?
No plans to spend really, just need to take books to library, thats it for today. Its been a bit of a trying week, nothing major, but lots of wee niggly problems cropping up IYKWIM! :mad: Looking forward to the weekend - movie night tomorrow, with a takeaway - Im easily pleased!
Mercury is retrograde so its his fault:rotfl:

I'm going to stick with my current target of 12 for May. The reason Im not increasing it is Im going on hols for a week on the 14th. I have no plans to have any NSD's that week as we'll be having lunches and coffees etc when we're out and about.:rotfl: I cant wait, the place we go is just my favourite place on Earth! So beautiful and relaxing and we always have a lovely time!:j

Wishing everyone a lovely day - and enjoy the weekend:A
