Evening all
Jinty hope your mouth is feeling better. Not long till your holidays! :j Good luck with Moonwalk Miss-t.
NSD#6 for me, hoping that I can last the whole week. Had a bit of annoying news today, OH is away with work and he got a letter to say that he is over his overdraft! So the bank have charge £20 for doing that and £10 a day, so far that is £40. :mad: I am so annoyed, cause he clearly hasn't been checking his bank balances and it wipes out all the little things I am trying to add to our income. Stern words over Skype I think. Sigh.
I still haven't heard back from the job applied for. Will call them next week and have 2 more to apply for. I have 11 weeks before I go to Oz, so I really need to have something by the then. Sorry for the downbeat tone, just been that kind of an evening. I'll be back later with my happy hat on . . .

Thank you - I will need it! I broke my arm in a car accident when I was suppose to start training (shouldn't moan, I could have died)- was in a full arm cast for almost 10 weeks, which only gave me 3 weeks to get myself sorted. However recovery has been painful so have only got very limited training under my belt
. Have done it before though, so am just going to take it step by step and mile by mile until I cross the finish line.

Declaring today as NSD #7 - even if I do feel as if I cheated a bit
Went to Mr T after my Zumba class for two reasons - one to return something, and one to refuel the car.
The refuel was fine, as I put the money for that to one side yesterday (which was always going to be a spend day due to a D/Debit, so I'd also taken the opportunity to stock up on some groceries I needed).
But having returned the item (a piece of running kit that's "not fit for purpose"), I then picked up a few grocery items (a few good Whoopsies, and a couple of good special offer items).
However the spend came in much lower than the refund, meaning (ignoring the fuel, which was 1p/litre cheaper than when I was up there on Sunday) I'm better off this evening than I was this morning. And the item I returned will need to be replaced which will probably lose me an NSD later this week or at the weekend.
Zumba was "fun"..... fortunately not the only one there for the first time, so there were 3 of us laughing at our own (and each others) attemps to follow the instructor. I decided to concentrate on the feet, and I'll work up to the arms once I'm confident down thereCheryl0 -

THANKS BDINI son in law came after work as promised fixed leaky pipe and the weird noise that we get when we turn hot tap on in kitchen has gone so thats a bonus ,this morning didn't go to well but settled in the afternoon.
My son is back to the dentists tomorrow so we should find out if the antibiotics are working he says it still hurts but he's got used to it now so has not had any pain killers for 3 days now he's really scared they will want to pull tooth out there and then don't think they will least i hope not .
