Morning All

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

I know it's maybe not the easiest of times to try it,but if you give yourself a target of 5 NSDs a week and try and group your spends together ie Monday and Thursday,it's still do-able.

Every NSD you get is always a bonus,but don't beat yourself up if you think you won't meet your target!

After a particularly trying day at work,I was almost at my front door when I realised that I didn't have my watch on.There's no way I could relax not knowing if I'd mislaid it or just left it in my locker at work.So I returned to work,and happily found it my locker.Phew!

#4 for me today.

Failed on NSD number 8

It's that f word again, not allowed on here! We do not "fail", we just don't achieve our objectives that's all. Bdini! Soggy paintbrush at the double!

As in today, when OH did not pay me back the parking money (despite the thumbscrews) so I can't have another NSD today after all. He did, however, nip into a shop on the way home and bought me a big warm cardi which cost him a few quid more than he owed me, so I can't really complain.

And I guarantee there will be one NSD before the week is out, plus a few more next week, and of course I will be spending zilch during the C festival on account of the house being packed out with food and goodies purchased beforehand, so that 15 target is still a possibility.

As predicted today was a spend day. Also had to pay out to get some essential maintainance on my car, not a happy bunny having to pay out for that, but needs must. At least on same day as shopping so can try for NSD tomorrow, fingers crossed.:p

NSD #5 for me today thanks to Hurricane Bawbag (hehehe) getting me sent home from work early and me choosing not to leave the house for anything!

A spend day for me today, as I had to buy liquid gold and shopping.

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......

This looks fantastic and all very motivating to me. If it's ok I'll join in properly next month, but will have a go at some NSDs in December to get me into the habit.
