    Hi all NSD 6. Monday i has to get some food in for worj for thursday as on your birthday you bring in food, but just lately when it is someones birthday they have been going over the top and ordering sandwiches for 20 from the cafe and then buying extras for another 10 to 15 pounds:eek::eek:. I cannot afford this so keeping it more low key but then you worry they are going to talk about you so tough they will get what they are given:rotfl:. Yesterday i had to stay at home with DD2 as she was sick all monday night and i thought this would be an NSD but had to get other halfs mum some birthday cards. Finding the going really hard this month what with DD1's and my birthday rapidly approaching.

  • Congratulations Little Miss Happy - how lovely for you, hope you enjoyed your visit. My DH gets concerned every time anyone has a baby as I would really love more children. Even after watching my two squabble in the middle of JL yesterday :rotfl:

    No news for me today. Snapped up some real bargains yesterday and a few things had arrived at home that I had bought online. This is my Annual Shopping Trip as well as our big holiday so I expected to spend a few pounds :D

    Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone :j

    Thank you again, everyone :D Her name is Willow and she is very, very beautiful :) She has lots of black hair (her sisters had a tiny bit of light hair!) and she is just perfect! She look a bit like my eldest and youngest when they were born as they had dark hair, too (my middle one had lighter hair).

    Yesterday was NSD7 so I'm close to my target now :) I already had Willows presents all ready and waiting ;)

    elfen - congratulations on your paid off debt :) Can't wait until I pay off some of mine! x

    I managed to resist yesterday and clock up NSD Number 13.

    Only problem is a new sandwich shop has just opened up.....AND THEY DO FREE DELIVERY TO WORK.

    Now that is going to be hard to resist. I have to buy some things tonight for when I go away this weekend, so I might try them today as a treat for not having any from the other shop, and they are healthier as well.

    :D

    Hi all,

    Grr tried to post yesterday and lost internet connection as I was pressing Post Reply!! :mad: and then just tried to post again (when should be working!) and someone wanted access to my computer! Luckily copied it this time ;)

    Anyway Monday was NSD 8 - I made money cos T£sco scanned my mop twice on Friday, went to tell them Monday, so for some reason they give you double the difference on this?! What a crazy rule! Thought I was pushing it even asking for my money back, and she did say they wouldn't usually cos it had been a few days but well you don't ask you don't get! Free mop :)

    Yesterday was a spendy as it was my birthday (26 shhh!) - your niece is very lucky to be born on such a good day AuntieHappy!! All the best people are born on 19th July :D

    Bought me a couple of necklaces from P£acocks, and some bath bombs as a shop near is closing down, everything a £1! Went to the cinema and had yum yum cookie dough ice cream, and out for tea. Was a good day :)

    Hoping to get another NSD today!
