Wow yesterday was NSD 4 for me this month and that's also 4 in a row!
I did some baking last night when I went home in between dropping OH off and going to pick him up so I had something sweet to bring into work and won't be tempted by the vending machines.
Aiming for another NSD today, as I'm volunteering tonight, at the same place OH is all week!
Tomorrow will be a spend day because I'm having Friday off and will need to buy some milk for home but have another 3 things I need to get and will get/order them all tomorrow too so I seem to be finally getting the hang of this planning spending a bit more, which won't tempt me to have little spends during the day I hope.Initial Mortgage January 2024 - £160,000

Well, I was looking forward to today as it said it would be nice and sunny and warm on the weather. Then I woke up and saw grey cloudsStill, I got dressed in summery clothes and, happily, the sun has finally put his hat on!!! :j So, I have done all my housework for the day and am going out to sit in the garden and study while I enjoy the sun
Also, as I have no plans to go out today I am declaring NSD 4 please BDINIThanks x

Big hugs to Keiss and Rock Cakes, you both sound like you're going thru it at the moment! I know how hard it can be looking for a job, but I'm sure it will come good in the end
NSD 4 for me yesterday, the stuff in L!dl wasn't what I expected, and even tho I could really use some more food I resisted and left empty handed!

Thanks again for all your kind words...I am in a much better situation that many others I know, but it has still come as a shock. For some it is their main source of income for the family, which will cause really big problems, as there are very few jobs going out there atm.
Spendy day today, most of which went on the dentist and hygenist (in 2 weeks time). I am now a canine tooth less and starting to feel the pain as the numbness wears off. :eek:
Can't see me gardening today, and don't really feel like stitching or sewing, though I might get my knitting out and watch some DVDs...Numb3rs, NCIC or House...oh the choice!!
A lovely day today, over 22 deg C atm!! Hope to get out in the garden tomorrow....loads to do!
Enjoy the rest of today everyone.

Hi all
Didn't manage any NSD today - emergency chocolate was required :EasterBun
However, only spent £1.45 all in and that included an elastic bandage - which wasn't for eating.
Onwards and upwards I suppose though.
Bye for now
