Have an outstanding October with the NSD challenge

solventsoon

Hi lovely gang:A
I can see the NSD challenge is going to be a busy place again this month. Well I don’t mind, doing the updates keeps me away from the shops and, more importantly, online shopping, so carry on chatting:D...


A big welcome to all the newbies joining up today, it’s great to have you on board. If you’re not sure about anything please ask, we’re very friendly and there’s usually someone around to help. Feel free to join in with the chat and general nonsense on here, we’re fairly tame (well, most of the time, if you humour us). Good luck with your first NSD challenge - keep posting, that’s the secret to success here.

So a big welcome to:

:hello:beachie - signing you up for 29 now. Wow, that is some target, we’re right behind you though. Good luck, you can do it!!

:hello:Mrs Good Life - signing you up for 10 now. Good luck, you can do it!!

Love the penguin picture and the group hug one x

:j:j:jButti - off the starting blocks now as well, woohoo!!!



And hello to:

wannabehermit - fingers crossed for NSD no 1 on Monday. I think it probably was a good idea to reduce your target bearing in mind what you have on this month. Hope you enjoyed the birthday BBQ on Saturday:)

QueenB. - fingers crossed for NSD no 1 today, you can do it. Hope you had a lovely day enjoying the weather in your garden - sounds ideal to me!!
Most people declare NSDs around the same time each day unless they’re suffering cravings to spend on something (chocolate is a good example). In that case they will declare early (sometimes in the morning) to avoid having to come back later and confess a spend. Hope that helps x:)

mysk_girl - good to hear about the race today and well done for completing it and all the sponsorship, definitely worth losing an NSD for that:T

jinty - well done on the weight loss, that’s fantastic:j:j You definitely deserved the hanging basket as a reward for sticking to the diet on your hols.
Love the Pooh picture!:T

Frodo - fingers crossed for lots of NSDs this week after your organised shopping and spending over the weekend:)


And no 2 for me today as well, let’s see how long I can keep this going:D......



Off to update the front page now, see all you lovely people tomorrow

‘night everyone

right i'm off to check if titches uniform is dry i forgot to wash it til last night oops oh well dehumidifier on has kept room cool as well,.... and i'm back uniform nice and dry i put it all on an airer that hangs on door and then draped a q cover over the door and airer like a tent it worked might try it with the kids jeans if they cant go on the line

Good morning.

I hope everyone had a good weekend. I can't believe it's Monday morning already.

Please can you sign me up for 15 NSDs and I grabbed no 1 yesterday. Thanks Spoon.

Thanks to BDINI and LittleMissHappy for the September updates.

shezam

Will keep on posting

Thanks

Ed_from_beds

Hi, please sign me up for 15[/ again this month.

I have achieved 2 already

LittleMissHappy_2

No NSD for me today - needed milk (grrrrrr!) Beer flu has subsided (thank goodness) A friend had her baby last night which was good news - a little girl.....not too much else happening. Hope you all have a great Monday - I will be spending it studying (are you surprised? Really?!) x

wannabehermit

Ooh congratulations to your friend LittleMissHappy.

Oh this month is not going too well on the nsd front. Looks like today & possibly tomorrow are going to be spend days. :eek: I was looking at the calendar thinking I may go for 3 in a row then had a call for a job interview :j. However I have no clothes whatsoever to wear :eek: so I'm going to have to have a run up to Tesco or Asda when DH gets home toinight (I did notice they both had some nice work dresses so should be ok). And on top of that I have no idea what I'm going to do with DD. Oh dear, I don't think it'll look too good turning up with a baby in tow!

elfen

NSD no 2 for me please....should get 3 in a row at least!

I'm doing well, I've managed to read all of the posts since I last wrote.
It's good to see so many people doing well with their NSDs already, I'm getting jealous as I still haven't had a NSD yet.

Today's definitely not a NSD as it's the main day for all my DDs/SOs leaving the bank, always a depressing day to look at my account! When I looked this morning & worked out how much money I've got left until payday it was really, really depressing. I'm hoping that if I pray enough I'll win the lottery or money will start falling from the sky. Knowing my luck any money that falls from the sky will be coins that will damage my house & car & end up costing me more to fix!
