Today had been going really well - I did the weekly shop but that doesn't count (does it?) and spent nothing else at all - until about half an hour ago when OH and I decided that we "needed" a Pizza Hut delivery - at least we're paying half each..........
No plans for tomorrow as yet so hopefully it'll be a NSD - fingers crossed.
Have a good evening - we're scoffing pizza and watching rubbish telly to recover from a joint hangover.0 -

I don't think the weekly shop counts as a spend as it's a necessity.***Dont save what is left after spending, spend what is left after saving***0 -
Morning everyone - very early today, insomnia strikes again! Bloomin steroids - brilliant for sorting out my Crohns but make as hyper as the Duracell bunny! :rotfl:
Decorating going to plan - on schedule to have painting finished today - yay!
NSD Number 1 yesterday!Great idea Solvent, to keep a running total - but a LOT of work for you. Thanks so much for your efforts!:A
Have a great Saturday!
Actually it isn't too much work to update the total, if everyone thinks it will give them some motivation then I'm happy to do it, it doesn't take long at all:)missylaney wrote: »Thanks LadyfromVenice and solventsoon for your replies, think I will allocate karate money on a Monday, which is nearly always a spend day for me anyway. Congratulations on your daughters black belts Ladyfrom Venice, I've seen how much hard work is involved in gaining them! DS is a green belt so a way to go yet, but he's loves the training and works hard so he'll get there.
Solventsoon can you please record my two NSD's days for April so far :janonymoose wrote: »:wave:
I managed a nsd on the 1stDon't think I'll get another til Tues now though
