Evening lovely gang:A
Apologies for no update yesterday, I decided to watch Strictly:o:o, but back later for a roundup.

Hope you've all had a good weekend.

NSD 8.

Two more to go and I would have reached my second target this month. I'm still feeling a bit down about the car, i just hope they don't find anything else, really can't afford more:(

10 weeks to christmas so i need to really get my lists going:)

New week just round the corner so new chance to rack up those NSDs.

Number 12 for me today

Not an NSD-friendly weekend but it was well worth it!

I also had an addition to make to my NSD pledge. Since i'm now starting to review gigs and need to travel, the gig days are NOT counted as long as I don't spend out of my travel allowance and a reasonable addition for food/drinks

2 nsds since my last post.

Meh I'm not doing well at all this month Ended up with another spend today, nothing major in terms of frivolity, some bread in M T, kitchen towel and two fabric conditioners (25p each with vouchers) in Wilko, and a couple of bits incl 1/2 price fish fingers, free pizza and some chicken breasts for dinner tonight in Mr S - oh and some Flora Cusine stuff as it's better to cook with - but has a MBG on it, so total spend less than £20 but i just don't seem to be able to get NSD atm. Feel totally out of sorts.

To top it off, found that the cat had up chucked on the spare bed during the night, had to wash the duvet cover and bed sheet, spot clean the duvet (for fear of tmi it had soaked right through ) but I can't get the mattress protector in the machine so off to the laundrette for me tomorrow - and it's about £6.50 to use the big machine there :eek: so yet another day spending.

Also had to push the point in Mr T that YES they can accept APG vouchers and i wasn't trying to diddle them out of 47p. Life just feeling somewhat like hard work atm. Sorry to moan folks.

Think I've altered my signature before I've even claimed this!

Today is NSD no. 5

Have just found a cheque for £20 so that will be going in tomorrow.

Hi lovely gang :A
Hope you've all had a lovely weekend and managed to get some sunshine


Well done for all the NSDs rolling in over the weekend:

:j:j:jchris81418 - for no 11, that’s brilliant, and yay to 11 in a row, that’s fantastic... I think that may be our record..
I’m totally in agreement with the thought of being debt free being the motivation behind NSDs, that’s what keeps me going as well. You’ve done fantastically well and I’m sure there will be some celebrations next year when it’s all finally gone

:j:j:jButti - no 4 nabbed, that’s fantastic!!!
Well done on the 300 words, I always think that starting is the worst part, hope you got it finished, and I agree that yesterday was definitely too nice to be inside all day
And yay to no 5, only 4 to get now, that’s brilliant!
Great news on the cheque as well

:j:j:jNargle - for no 7, that’s brilliant, nearly halfway now, keep going!

:j:j:jfedupandskint - no 5 safely bagged now, that’s brilliant!!!
I love unexpected NSDs, they’re definitely the best
And yay to no 6 and your NSD weekend, that’s fantastic!!

:j:j:jiwanttogoonholiday - hope you enjoyed the subway and managed to avoid any other spends
And yay to no 6, that’s fantastic. Halfway now, well done!!!
And yay again to no 7, over halfway now, that’s brilliant!

:j:j:jFrodo - for no 8, that’s brilliant. Halfway now, well done!!!
Wow, well done on the weight loss, that’s brilliant!

:j:j:jrising from the ashes - for no 10, that’s brilliant, yay to double figures!!
Pleased your foot is coming along, they take time to heal unfortunately but it’ll be worth it in the long run. I’m not surprised you’re getting a bit fed up, you sound remarkably chipper under the circumstances xx

:j:j:jdonna dynamo - for no 12, that’s fantastic, well done!
You’re getting very organised for December as well. Hope you managed to find something to do with the kids today and no arguments were involved

:j:j:jRed - for no 8, you’re doing brilliantly, keep going!
Pleased you got some sun after all the rain, hope you managed to get out and enjoy it
You’re getting very organised for December, well done, and hope you enjoyed the takeaway.

:j:j:jcleggie - no 3 for you, you’re on a roll!!
Hope pud is OK after the vet visits?

:j:j:jIf - for no 8, that’s brilliant, nearly halfway now, keep going!
And no 9 safely bagged now, over halfway now, that’s fantastic!

:j:j:jLMH - I reckon paying in the windfall was worth losing an NSD for
And no 7 now, that’s brilliant, nearly halfway now, keep going!

:j:j:jSpendSpendSpend - for nos 4 and 5, that’s brilliant, well done you!!

:j:j:jSillyBlondie - no 10, that’s brilliant, yay to double figures and being two thirds of the way now, keep going!

:j:j:jlotti379 - for no 5, that’s brilliant. Halfway now, well done!!!
Sorry you’re feeling tired, it could be due to the days getting shorter, I’m like that at this time of the year as well.

:j:j:jQueenB. - oh dear, sorry about the car, that’s not great news....
Fingers crossed for a no spendy Sunday for you
And you made it, no 8 in the bag and two more to get now.. keep going!

:j:j:jsf - hope Saturday’s spends weren’t too serious
And yay to no 12, only 3 more to get now, you can do it!

:j:j:jmilann- for nos 5 and 6 safely bagged now, that’s brilliant!


And hello to:

ModestyB - ahh.... well done on getting the pups, hope they got on OK at the vet today:)

jinty - you definitely deserve a treat for the weight loss, well deserved.:T
I like the sound of your haircut, change of image for the new you:T

elfen - pleased you had a good weekend even if it was a spendy one:T

kerri - you moan away if you need to, we’re all here to try to support you if we can xx :A
Sorry you’re having a bit of a carp time atm and are feeling out of sorts, that’s not like you. Maybe it’s the onset of winter and the shorter days having this effect on you? :A
(((hugs))) xx



A no spendy weekend for me, unfortunately I’ve been working for most of it, so I'm up to no 14 now.


I'll update the front page tomorrow, see you all then

‘night everyone

Struggling this month as have had too many birthdays and weddings and still more to come. My carefulness has gone out the window and i fear targets will not be reached. However i will be more careful next month! 1 bad month does not a failure make. ;-)
