No 14 today.
Very glad our schools are back today for a whole 4 days, off for 3, back for two.............
Reporting a very spendy, yet satisfying day today. Got my hair cut (bit pricey, but a good job) and love it. DS1 felt it was "too modern". Apparently I'm not allowed to be modern (I'm only 50)!!
This afternoon we went in search of trainers for DS1. I said I would get them for him...but 4 shops later, no joy!! He has found a make he likes (he's very picky!), but nothing that fitted exactly right!! So he will have a look and try on different styles when he gets back to Uni. DS2 somehow managed to pick up a pair of sweatpants and shorts for himself...both vastly reduced though :money:.
We then met up with DH and had a fantastic meal out. It was a lovely Italian restaurant with an all-Italian staff. Very good food and a great atmosphere, remarkably busy for a Monday evening!!!
Right off to bed soon as working tomorrow.
Hope to pick up a couple of NSDs in the next two days, though can see me picking up some fresh veg on Thursday for the weekend.

*rushes in* just a really really quick stop - no NSD for me today but it's a well worthwhile spend as I have just been buying some baby gifts as I became proud (very proud) Aunty to a baby girl at 10.30pm last night! :j:j:j

I think it's the constant back of the mind nagging worry over cashflow that sometimes leaps out and grabs hold of me. I know it's not forever it's just that sometimes I feel like like a hamster on a wheel. That said if I focus on the positives I'll do just fine.

Sorry I wasn't around during the weekend to send you a hug but I'm really pleased you're feeling more positive today. Wish I'd seen the chip butties yesterday, I would have been round like a shot!:D
Any time you need a rant or a moan, go ahead, we've all been there (and some of us still are).
Here's another hug for you, hope it helps.
Take care

Cheryl, love the shopping, that's very unlike you:D. I really like the dress and the shoes, as someone else said, your chap needs to take you somewhere nice now to wear them:D
BDINI, hope you had a good evening with your old boys:D. Thanks for the words of support, I'm fine, things are just a bit busy at the moment, but I'm gaining lots of NSDs so quite chuffed with that:D
And an update on my NSDs now, I had a no spend weekend and have been a very good spoony today, so currently at no 14, doing well this month:j:j:j
Big ((((((hug)))))) to anyone needing one.
'night everyone

PS: Keiss, of course you're allowed to be "modern", what do boys know about haircuts anyway:D.The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time

Morning
Congrats Kerri on becoming an Auntie. You get to have the baby cuddles and when they cry you get to give them back! :rotfl:
Not much to report here, didn't manage a NSD as went for a tea and a chat with my partner in crime at work. She's found a new job so she will be leaving.I am happy for her as she was disliking the job as much as I was. Have submitted my CV for one job, just need to find some more to apply for . . .
Enjoy the sun everyone!
