Gentle Jump into June? Did we mention NOT spending...(well this is the NSD challenge)

Just going up to Bro's to drop the cardie's off that SiL asked me to do for a freind of her's who's having twin's{neither one like's/can knit] then it's back to do some gardening so declaring no 15.

Booo. Thought i was on track to get my NSDs! But then realised i do payday to payday!!! So infact ended June on 10 out of 14

July is a five week month but i will go for 12 i think

Okay. I've had enough of June now .................too many spendy days *starts to look for July thread already*

(just found some cheapo beady bracelets on Eb4y. You know the ones.......silver bracelet, glass beads, would normally cost an arm and a leg.........not saying they are not the real ones you know *taps nose knowingly * but for £0.01 Plus P&P :eek: I'm having a bit of an accessories crisis. How do they get away with it? It even has the proper name on it).

Ordered [STRIKE]two[/STRIKE] three bracelets and two lots of extra beads. I feel so naughty

Saying that, I think I have had an NSD since last time I posted.

So I am now up to 16 NSDs. Will not make target now so might just take another wander around Eb4y just to make sure I haven't missed anything..........

ETA: I did, ordered one for DD as well.

Afternoon

Had to stock the cupboards so to-day will not be a NSD, not even a LSD. DS is coming home next week so food consumption in the Dopey household will rocket, no doubt.

Right I've got the social calendar straight now, wombleton first, remember no grunty players, it drives me mad, sound like they're giving birth or something, even the men. I start to push along with them iykwim. Chavvy in July (Neddy in Scottish), do I have to have an adenoidle operation first do you think so I can do the voice or is that a Scottish peculiarity?

Can you teach me how to do that sort of maths on my grocery budget... pretty pleeeeeeease?....

Zizz quite easy once you get the hang--you got your first number right, then you add the second number right, take away the other number then count all the sticky out bits right, in the room but after you've divided by the number of ears in a flock of sheep times legs in an ant nest & added on 7.

Have you seen THIS thread Keiss? Lots of places I've never heard of; had a sneaky peak but didn't want to venture too far in case I got caught by the purse strings

Good grief--are we all si-kickull-lee linked or summat, cuz our bluddin web is too :mad: Me muvva keeps missing her early evening soaps cuz the signal is terrible on the digital thing & I just want it all to go back to stuff that WORKS! As you go on thru Life, you realise those old wives tales had some truth about them, in particular--If It Ain't Broke--DON'T Fix It

Talking of getting on with your life..the boy who came to check me wiring yesterday looked big enough for a Bob The Construction Worker costume & I'm supposed to feel confident in his ability to replace my sockets next week :eek: Thought it was only rozzers who got younger

Well, because I was waiting in for the boy genius & they said it would take three hours, I did my shop on Thurs & resisted getting new bedding yesterday & No 19 is tucked under my belt :T Had to empty the airing cupboard so had a sort out & realised how lacking we are in the single sized dept, & by having the power off I must get a corded phone too. I did look on Thurs but they didn't have one & I didn't know we needed sheets then either....wonder how long I can get away with laundering & replacing the bed linen on the same day before The Offspring say something :think: You watch; the weather will change now I've said that!

A fairly hefty spend day for me, but all done in the MSE way!! Nipped into Wilco's this morning for a new water butt, wine yeast/stabiliser etc - free parking as you can use the 'pick-up' point before 10am.

Got home to find DH making good progress on building my new greenhouse, I've only been asking him for a week. He got to the nearly completed stage (one point away from moving it into position) and he then managed to drill into my thumb!! OUCH!! 'Just a flesh wound', but stings all the same. After pausing briefly to mumble sorry, he then downed tools, got his golf clubs and announced he was due at golf in 5 minutes (news to me!).

I am now sat at home in a furious temper, my still-bleeding thumb wrapped in kitchen roll, a half erected greenhouse in the middle of our tiny garden, the rest of the greenhouse in the middle of our tiny living room, and our patio table and chairs covered in poor homeless tomato plants. I tried to finish it off myself but its a two person job.

The worst bit is I have my two best friends coming round in an hour to sit in the garden for a few drinks and nibbles. As it stands at the minute there isn't one part of the house or garden that you could sit one person in, let alone three!! Perhaps we could sit in the half-a-greenhouse?!

hmmmm katenut...
I think DH might find his golf clubs in a slightly uncomfortable place when he gets back.. not on, you're right to be annoyed (in fact, fuming..)

Oh dear:(:(:(

((hugs))

Thanks Spoon! I really dont want to let things get on top of me again so.....

I've taken a very large deep breath, decided its really not worth getting in a state about and am off to head back into the garden to clear us a gap to sit in. Also just been invited to a BBQ later so he will have to fend for himself when he gets home :D:D

Hope everyone is having a good weekend so far xx

Love it, BigMumma - all of us should do maths this way:rotfl::rotfl:

Glad it's not just me, our TV signal is carp since we've gone digital, can't watch anything without missing chunks, and, as I don't watch much TV at all, it drives me crazy

OH is currently up a ladder on our roof trying to sort an aerial signal booster out, no idea whether that will work or not.... bring back the old analogue signal....

Brilliant katenut....... that'll teach him:rotfl::rotfl:

You're right though, don't let it get to you - it will affect you much more than him. Enjoy your drinks with your friends and especially enjoy the BBQ.

Enjoy the rest of your day off.
