    Catching up and seen Jinty that you have returned it. Excellent

    Ok, does 4 spend days in a row mean I get the kipper ??? First started on running errands for family, then falling for the offer found on MSE for baking trays (I would never have baked until this month and getting into it); then treats & spends 'cause I got a new job to finally yesterday finish spending the vouchers I had on top of the 25% off in the shop. Bought petrol yesterday as well so I should be able to do an NSD today.

    Good morning everyone -

    First off, well done on yet another NSD Spoon!:T
    Have been up most of the night, really having problems sleeping ATM, will probably got back to bed later and hit myself over the head to try and get some shuteye!:(
    Just checked OH's wages and it looks like he has not been paid for a lot of OT he did:mad: @ £150 short:mad: I was banking on that money this week, so I will have to juggle things around a bit. Any time he does any hours out of his usual routine, his payroll dept always screw up:mad: Not helped by the fact he's in London, so I cant even rant at him! Sorry guys, I know you wont mind me having a wee shout!:A

    Not sure what I'm up to today, probably my bed with a HWB and my book!
    OH home this evening,:j cant wait to see him, it's been a long week!

    Have a lovely day everyone!:)
    ((((hugs)))) jinty, for OH's wages and for not sleeping - you rant away if it makes you feel a bit better, we'll always listen. Hope you manage to get some shuteye during the day.

    Take care and have a lovely weekend with OH.
    xx
    PS: And thanks for the congrats - pleased with my NSDs this month:)

    Is still cold so I don't plan to go out and spend money....making this no 17.....and if I'm thinking right, either today or tomorrow I smash my 6 in a row

    I do it all because I'm scared.
  • Well, had this week off work and I must say I have done some pretty heaving spending, and it wasn't for xmas! However, managed to do this on only one day so I have now reached my target of 18 NSDs :T:T:T.

    Need to get myself a diary for next year though but I'm having problems getting the one I want. I like a slimline 2 week-to-view diary, design doesn't matter. Anyone any ideas?

    Not being very MSE at the moment, must try harder. I may not be having many spend days but I appear to be spending far too much money when I am spending, but I'm not frivolous. Can't understand it. Must reign myself in, get back on the wagon and make an effort to get Cheryl's spreadsheet on the go again.

    Hope everyone is well
