  • Was aiming for my fourth NSD today. But nooo
    I was working from 10 - 8 and was really tired :(
    Didn't have interest to cook dinner so had a takeaway.

    Temptation is a very bad thing.

    If I know I have a long day, I make sure I have some of that posh filled pasta in the freezer and take it out to defrost before I go to work. Tonight I had pasta filled with sausage, chilli and chianti and it only took three minutes to cook when I got home :)
  • No NSD for me as I got some of those reindeer antler headbands for xmas dinner wear :D I am doing my own 'crackers' with scratch card, own joke, posh choc etc in them and this is my choice of headwear :D:D:D

    Feeling much, much better today x Hope everyone else who are feeling poorly are getting better ((hugs)) to you x Tomorrow is DH's birthday so we will be having a nice day and then Friday going on holiday so feeling pretty good at the moment!

    Another NSD yesterday taking me up to the grand total of 3 NSD's.

    Might or might not have to spend today, I'm supposed to be going out for lunch, unless I can make my excuses. :)

    Yesterday was NSD #2 of 0 for me :)

    Today, unfortunately, is a spend day - window cleaners are here, so I've just paid for today and next visit (in 2 weeks time)

  • Got NSD #4 yesterday - managed to resist everything at the post office when I posted ebay parcels :D

    Today is going to be a spend day as I need to pay for my next lot of climbing (I pay for 10 at once and it makes it a bit cheaper and makes it feel free when I go again!) and petrol - should also get some stamps to post my Christmas cards that I've actually managed to write on time this year!!

    Hopefully tomorrow will be NSD - don't think i've got anything planned.

    Rubbish! Did a few extra hrs at work yesterday which was ace, but it ment i have to have a lunch break and didnt have any lunch prepared as I wasnt meant to be work extra, and I hadnt had any breakfast, so i was starving so i had to buy some lunch, and after i had finished i was so pooped I couldnt summon up the strength o go buy a christmas tree, so friday is still lucking like a spend day for me, on the up side, I am going to try reallly hard to have a NSD today, may involve leaving my purse at home but it shall be worth it.
    I have also just check the calendar and I only have 24 days left to hit my 15 so over half of the month will have to be a NSD

    Wish me luck

    Tighter, Igor! Never mind those moths squealing, pull those chains tighter! My purse is not, repeat not going to open today.....oh blast! OH wanted change for parking.....having said that, I can get the thumbscrews out for later (stop licking your lips, Igor!) to ensure he pays me back so I could still achieve a NSD today.......oh the plottings and manipulations we have to do......
