    Reporting in with NSD NUMBER 19 please Spoon - been to slimming class (gained half a pound but more than happy with that as Mr 3Dogs & I went mad yesterday and seemed to eat rubbish all day:eek:) Had to call at Mr A on way home, but had put the money to one side to get the Weetabix which I needed but they'd not had the other day, and a couple of bottles of beer for Mr 3Dogs which I knew he'd [STRIKE]need [/STRIKE]want tonight but did not want to get them in ealier in case he saw them and drank them, and then would [STRIKE]need [/STRIKE]want more for tonight ;);)
    :( Mr 3Dogs 3-7-12 :( 3Dogs'Mam 31-3-13 :(
  • Well yesterday was another NSD which makes it 10 so far for me. I have met my target but I would love to fit in another one - possibly Weds. The one thing I enjoyed about this challenge is not so much the not spending money but the way it made me stop and think whether I needed to spend money that could go towards my debt. For instance, my stopping off at McDonalds and not thinking that could have been a fiver off my debt. Anyway enough off my ramblings and here's looking forward to October and more NSDs for us all. :j:j
    One debt in 100 days £384/1264(£865 left)
    Pay all your debt off by xmas 2014 £276/18864
    NSD 4 and 4 in a row

    Here she is, boult, she was lurking round the back eating some grass:D:D:D

    Glad froglet is safe, he'll enjoy playing in the bathroom:D

    Sorry, she's been lurking in my garden since Aug...though tbh, she gets very easily distracted by the school kids walking past and I've had to retrieve her from the neighbours gardens a few times....prob best she finds a new home before they complain...:o

    I am declaring NSD #13 today - which means I've exceeded my Sept tartget and matched my Aug achievment :j I did take a wander into town at lunchtime but resisted the urge to buy things - I do need to stock up on some medicine supplies as I'm off to Asia next week with work and always like to make sure I have everything 'just in case' (though normally it's everyone else coming to me, last time I was dishing out things for colds and flu and upset tums left right and centre....my boss started to refer to me as Matron ohhhh errr!!!) :rotfl::rotfl:

    I know I can notch up another NSD, so I'm gonna be brave and say Spoony, put my target up to 15 please. That means I need two out of three days left to be NSD (and allows for me to get me brows threaded as they are starting to look like colin the caterpillar again :rotfl:)

    Trying to decide what my Oct target will be, last pay month was more expensive than I planned, with b'day present for my best friend in oz costing £12 to post :eek:, plus my [STRIKE]necessary[/STRIKE], [STRIKE]not-so-necessary[/STRIKE] ok possibly unecessary, TK Maxx spends AND a hair cut which all dented my budget. I am trying my hardest to be good until next pay day, and if I have enough I might treat myself to a SuperDry cardi I have seen - poss some out of this month's budget and some out of the Nov one as a reward.

    Well, I need four NSDs in a row to make my target, and today is the first of those four!
    Today I'm up to number 9 out of 12. Three to go... three days left in the month, and I've got very little food in the house. This is gonna be tough. Well done to everyone who's made their target already.
    You're spelling is effecting me so much. Im trying not to be phased by it but your all making me loose my mind on mass!! My head is loosing it's hair. I'm going to take myself off the electoral role like I should of done ages ago and move to the Caribean. I already brought my plane ticket, all be it a refundable 1.
  • evening, just running through, didn't get one to-day, won't tomorrow but may manage one last one on Thursday,if that's still September, if not I'll have my first for october ifyswim????

    Hugs to all who need them, aren't we doing well this month????

  • Hi everyone, just popping on to say thanks very much for all your kind comments over the last few days.

    Unfortunately FIL passed away on Friday. We're all doing fine though and DH's sister arrived from New Zealand this afternoon with her new baby so MIL had something to focus on today.

    Will be back soon.

    2 more NSDs to add for Friday and today, taking my total to 10 :). However getting to 12 is going to be tough as I need to pay for something at work tomorrow and I have a waxing appointment on Thursday. Which means there's only Wednesday for another NSD, which leaves me 1 short. Booooo!

    While 11 is good, it's just a bit frustrating!!!! At the moment I'm wondering if there are ways around paying for work thing tomorrow and putting it off until Thursday!!!! I suspect not as that would mean my colleague paying for me in the meantime, and that's not really fair.

    If you know how much you need for Thursday, then tuck that away in a pocket of your purse/bag tomorrow - hence Thursday is an NSD ;)
