    Oh well, it wasn't a NSD for me after all.....popped out at lunchtime and saw a box of Christmas baubles very reduced (and needed as DD dropped the bag containing baubles), then a reduced pint of milk, then a great stocking filler for DD, then toothbrushes on special offer, then YS bread and rolls! Then I had to pay for parking at the hospital for OH's physio appointment! Tomorrow is another day......

    Hi all NSD 14 today nearly at target two. Thanks everyone for your kind words and hugs it is very much appreciated. OH has been at hospital all day and i'm just keeping things ticking over at home as he does not want to talk about it and pushing him to talk makes him angry.

    Hi Donna

    You'll probably find OH will talk to you when he's ready. As someone else said he has to process and think about what's happened first he probably won't want to talk much until he's been able to do that.

    More ((((((hugs)))))) coming your way.

    Take care and don't forget to look after yourself as well as everyone else

    (hugs) my husband found it very difficult to talk about my sister when she had cancer.

    Well spend day yesterday but that is because I was doing the weekly shop with the two children! Such hard work. Today I managed a no spend even when at college again :Dso nsd no 10

  • Turns out to be a spend day,got some great books secondhand.Still within my budget -just.

    I'm going to try now for my 'four-in-a-row',otherwise I'll never get it in this month.I made a big pot of soup and also pasta sauce today and have loads of fruit in,so think that I'll manage it.

    Have a good evening all!

    Hi MB:hello:

    You're back on 10 again. My mistake, I'd copied and pasted and forgotten to change your total:o:o

    Sorry to confuse you (I'm confused enough myself:D)

    Hi Spoon, no problem, I spend most days being confused about something or other. :rotfl:

    I'd like to declare NSD No 11 today thanks. I'm most unhappy about buying that loaf yesterday, we didn't even open it till today and then we didn't really need it. We've got part baked bread in the freezer. Next time DH says we need something I think I'll put my earplugs in! :mad::D:p;)

    Anyone in the Edinburgh area?

    I think we talked about this on December's thread and were going to think about it after we'd all been paid in January.

    Anyone still fancy meeting up for a coffee?

    I'm paid on the 27th so would be good to get something down on the calander for Feb!:)

    Im up for this.
    I can get the bus over.
