    Declaring today as NSD #2 :D

    Had a quick glance at the chilled Whoopsies as I left work - even though I know full well I don't have a single cubic centimetre in my freezers for anything else :o Luckily there was nothing even vaguely tempting - and that was before I even checked prices :)

    A 2nd NSD for me today, even though I had a half day holiday off work....spent the pm working on the allotment for free!!

    Should manage a 3rd tomorrow then have vets Wed so will pay ponies livery and pick up any groceries on that day :)

    This is really helping....I didn't realise how many times I just nipped out for a chocolate bar of cheese scone or picked up a latte on the way to work.

  • Evening all! I finally made it...only 4days late :o shocking really!

    First things first, can you put me down for 13 again this month please Spoon, I know it's not progress from last month but it was a close call last month and this month will be busier so I need to be more determined this time round!

    I did manage to get my first NSD today though - was at work for 12hrs which helped although has left me unable to keep my eyes open without the help of sticks! It's very frustrating as friday should have been a NSD but we ran out if milk, bread and eggs (OH forgot to mention this!) -all 3 of which I needed for work on Saturday. then on Saturday I had to get more threads and cards for the cross-stitch winterval cards I'm doing this year, and then yesterday evening we headed to OHs mums and she asked us to get some shopping on our way in so all 3 were frustrating spends but thankfully not expensive spends.

    Right I've waffled enough! Time for bed! :)

    Today wasn't a NSD... which I expected due to a doctors appointment. So I also nipped in to the library to pay my fine :o. I can never remember to take my books back in time - even when it's scawled all over my diary and my calendar. :o:o

    But the doctors was running late so I also missed the post office and the pharmacy, which means tomorrow's NSD is out of the window too.

    So I'm searching the deepest darkest reaches of my mind to check what else I might need to buy so I can squeeze it in to tomorrow (Tuesdays are hectic as I go straight from work to dressmaking class so won't be home before 9 o'clock :eek:)
