  • Morning all:D well, the wind has finally died down, it was horrendous last night.

    Been up since 4:30:o and was still awake after 1 so not a lot of snoozing happened last night again :(.

    Anyway, it's really cold but looking promising outside .... I really must get my butt into gear and try to do something today - not sure what yet:o. Shopping has it's appeals but I've not really got any money spare having spent so much in the past few weeks and I don't really need anything.

    The only thing I'm after is a butterfly table - I gave away my kitchen table & chairs (Free*cycle) when DM gave me her old dresser (couldn't fit both into the kitchen) and have discovered I've nowhere to use my sewing machine now:eek:.

    Any cashback earned has been put into a "pot" from my account and I did get some money for Christmas so could probably stretch to a max of £150 for one - Dun*elm do have one for just under that ... but it's the wrong colour:mad: unfortunately so I'll maybe have another hunt online - fingers crossed!


    Have a good day everyone:)

    Not a nsd for me again today - I've already been shopping, but surely I can get myself properly cutting back for the rest of the week. I need to show a little restraint.

  • I got some groceries today,so no NSD for me.

    I could probably manage 6 nsds in a row now,but have just remembered that I have some bills to pay before then.I don't need to get food or anything else for that matter.

    Back to work tomorrow,hope it's not a madhouse.

    Have a good evening!
