    Another NSD for us, please - which brings us up to ten. We can do it....we can do it (and so she continues chanting).

    Hi everyone :wave:

    I am loving this new NSD lifestyle of mine! Signing in for 10 this month so far!! 6 to go...I think I can... maybe... If I get 14 or 15 and half the month as a no spend I'll be happy :D

    Didn't have one today as I sponsored someone at work for the race for life, but the whole w/e was spendless :D

    Night all! Enjoy the longest day!

    Evening

    Got NSD no 9 today as I made fruit bread and biscuits for the hordes.
    Might even manage another one tomorrow but I've got to the stage where I need a freezer reccy, a new meal plan and a shopping list for Weds and I just CBA:(

    I shall sit here and wait for inspiration to strike :D

    Hope everybody's having a good day.
    August Shopping Challenge. 26/8. Budget £250 Spent £256.81.. £6.81 over. So £0.00 a day left.

    11 for me today :j:j

    Very productive day, have listed everything in the freezer, so nothing gets forgotten at the bottom & have played around with my budget, as i definitely need to keep on top of my grocery spend :eek:
    Oh & I finished a tub of moisturiser tonight, & i tell you what getting a new one out of the stash to open was definitely as exciting as buying a new one!!!! :D

    Hope you all made it back from Stonehenge ok? :rotfl::rotfl:

    Wor Bonnie now has the buster collar removed and is as happy as a likkle lamb about it - no sign of her chewing at her paws again, so hopefully OK now

    I'd better start watching the tennis on TV now then if I am to know who's who when we go - soooo looking forward to those strawberries [STRIKE]and cream[/STRIKE] without cream (GAINED another half a pound tonight - I really don't know what else I can do :eek::mad::eek::mad::eek:)
