    Totally amazing myself (and DH) by declaring NSD N0 14.
    Well done to everyone who has done this challenge whether you've reached target or not. It's the trying that counts. Keep it up and we'll see each other in January. :T:T:T
    Be Well.
    Hugs to all who are ill. :grouphug:

  • Happy to say that I got my cashmere jumper(s)-I bought more than one and not in the sale.:o I've decided that it's an 'investment'.....

    Also got some fruit and coffee.

    I'll get an NSD tomorrow,which means that I'll reach my second target.

    kerri yes cross-country is more physical,but less taxing.If I ever ski again,I would do cross-country.

    Happy Friday night to you all!
  • Discovered a "postie's card" just before (wee cat has a habit of pinching them - which isn't helpful!;) - and I find them all over the house.

    Anyway, trouped round to the dog kennel (where he leaves stuff) and .... it's my new heavy duty hole punch:j:j:j

    I've wanted one for ages but have always been put off by the cost ... but found one on Am*azon very well priced a while ago so gave in.

    I've just sat and punched all my insurance booklets / gadget manuals etc that were too thick for a normal sized one and these are all now safely filed away (instead of in one of many drawers:o):j:j(I hate polypockets in the files)

    Also managed to find my car insurance docs that I've turned the house upside down looking for in the past few days.

    I've a big lever arch file for each year that I file stuff in - and transfer stuff that runs over the year into the new one at the start of the next year and ..... I'd actually already filed them in my 2012 folder :o (Big Phew! as I was about at the point of having to request a duplicate - which no doubt would've cost!)
