    Today is a spend day for me, already bought some cheap seeds of the net, so it's a kind of a low spend day. Still counts as a spend day for me though. LOL!

    JC-hysterical.gif BMF, just sat down with a mid morning coffee and sprayed the monitor as I read that, love 'Boom Boom' moments, so thanks for the giggle and congrats on the imminent pony.

    Only thing I need to do today is post a BD card and already got stamps in for that so no spend for me today and won't be going near any shops so declaring early today at no 17, you're right Spoon I wants my banana, told DH and he said he'd oblige but I don't think he's on the same NSD page as I am Viannen_loungelizard.gif Posting often and reading what everyone else is doing, how they cope with spend days and sharing the joy at their NSD's is definitely helping to keep me on track, would recommend those that can should post often and drink in the inspiration.

    We're off for a walk up the local canal when DH gets home from work, a quick look to see what's in the hedgerows. May make some elderflower cordial if there are any elderflowers left. The lavender in the garden is almost ready to harvest so more lavender biscuits to make and dough for the freezer and some lavender vinegar for the mop bucket and may make some lavender & lemon curd. My chocolate peppermint is ready to harvest for drying to make tea and for using fresh to make infused honey, so may do that when the sun isn't so hot. I love herb harvest time, need to turn the roses into more wine as well, last lot we made has run out. Hope the sun is shining on everyone :)

  • tantrum.giftantrum.giftantrum.gif No NSD today. My pony appears to have bolted out of those stable doors someone has left open............... wasn't your aliens trying to spoil my day was it PDD?

    BUT............

    :T:T:T:T I went into a charity shop in town and found the exact same favourite top of mine which my tumble dryer destroyed last month. So a happy non-NSD for me. Got another top too....and as I was spending anyway popped into Mr A for some milk to last the week. Mmmmmmm..... £17 later but I have everything I need till Saturday (I hope!).

    Tomorrow's another day.......

    ooooer missed the folk dancing BF and the human sacrifice, why was it you didn't qualify again Nargle???

    been running around the country collecting aliens pals from different intergalactic airports (including that dome thing in London and Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh) but all back now. Lovely even landing surface at Arthur's seat??????)

    In the meantime managed to acquire another two NSDs.

    oooh Herby wish I lived next door to you, have you tried lavender chocolate crispies, scrumptious!!!!

    Now need to find out where my next 5 days are going to come from! June is running out!!

    I agreed to go out for a meal on Monday night (post-payday so all okay dokey) but Monday was on my target list... Friday or Sunday is going to have to be a free one. Let me think how I'm gonna do this...

    Think next month I need to remember those few extra days between payday (25th) and the end of the month, the days when I feel extra flush!
