    :hello: Good morning all! Welcome 30andfab!

    Made it # 19 yesterday as, apart from walking doglet, I didnt go across the door! Did a bit of tidying up, tackled a mountain of ironing so I felt justified in chillaxing for the rest of the day.
    Spent the rest of the day reading my book, finished it, and bloomin good it was too!
    Not sure what I'm up to today, it's pouring rain ATM so I'm not inclined to do much, although I feel I'm getting a touch of cabin fever:rotfl:

    Have a lovely day everyone:)

    Hi everyone, hope you had a lovely Christmas. I'm up to 13 now please Spoon, with no hope of meeting target (unless I get struck down by flu or locked in the house!) but I've done better than I thought I would xx

  • Good morning everyone!

    Just a flying visit from me today, to report another NSD collected yesterday, bringing my total up to 21 NSDs! Today is a planned spend day, but hoping to get at least a couple more NSDs before the year is up!

    Welcome to the thread 30andfabulous, and have a good day everyone!

  • Good morning all,

    Should be another NSD for me today as I don't think we are going anywhere as there is far too much to do around the house!

    Sadly, no NSD today.:(
    We went to Nex£ to exchange some slippers I got from Santa and I turned them into a lovely photo frame ( amazing, eh?) We were also meant to be going to Pts at Hme, but a certain Mr Jintyb forgot his wallet, so he's not very popular:mad:
    This meant I had to cough up for the coffees and buns so that scuppered my NSD efforts.
    Glad to be home TBH, as everywhere was really busy with grumpy people!
    Will be getting on with my book this afternoon ( in peace!)

    Tomorrow Mr Jb, WILL be bringing the wallet, so hopefully I'll make my target.:)


    Revision required - Mr Jintyb has just transferred money to my account to cover today's spends. So, not only is he forgiven, but I've also made my 2nd Target of 20! I'm not going to push my luck by increasing again, but any extra will be a nice bonus!

    I'm having a bit of a brain sesh...how do you think this sounds.

    You know how you do the Notice to Newbies thing with the first post on a new page talking about trolls......what if we did the same sort of thing on here on how to start your Challenge? Even if we only did it for a couple of months, & January is notoriously busy on here? Just a suggestion of course!

    Got my second target of 17 yesterday; I felt as rough as the proverbial badger & was in bed before 6pm & didn't even look at my sudoku :( The sleep must have worked though cuz :shhh:..I've not sneezed at all so far today :T

    Mum & I have had a chat on the phone this morning & said we'll try to get out tomorrow, in the hopes we miss the worst of the Great Food Siege once again :angry: Apart from bananas & perhaps some more bee-tay-toes I don't think there's much else I desperately need until normal service can be resumed, but I do have a hankering for fish fingers & have none in the freezer...Pass the elbow pads; I'm going in!sport-smiley-005.gif

    So much for a brain work-out wacky.gif ..forgot to say I'll have a bash for another two please. Make my next target 19 if you would be so kind Mistress Spoonie-poon; our very own hard-working elf.gifOf The Thread!
