    Keiss 21 – wow, well done on getting your washing dry, the pesky rain hasn’t let up at all here :(
    Fajita’s sound yummy, room for a little one?
    Sorry, the boys munched them all!! I only had a little one myself, very nice though! DS1 is making a pinto bean curry (HFW recipe) tonight. I won't be home until 7:30 or so after invigilating in college, hope it's nice! :)
    1st NSD for me. Hoping tomorrow will be too, if I can persuade them that homemade bread is best.
    OOoh my boys love my homemade bread. They moan when I buy some, which is what I had to do yesterday. I still have problems kneading (hernia op in Nov), but will have a go tomorrow. Should really have asked DH to do it over the long weekend, but forgot :o

    Right, declaring today as NSD #2.

    Working from home this morning, then invigilating in college this afternoon/evening. Gave DS2 money yesterday for his physio session this afternoon...organized or what! Going to try and not spend anything until Saturday now. Don't usually shop at the weekend, but DH is taking DS1 back to Uni, and they will do a big food shop when they get there. That will keep DS1 going for a few weeks! :)

    Have a good day everyone...hope there's not too much damage everywhere.

  • Morning all

    Know it's early, but I'm declairing NSD #2 today....staying home to get over the coughing brought on by Freeby's dust!!
    Good Morning,

    Just checking in to report NSD #3 yesterday. :T And 3 in a row.

    As I am staying off work today due to being poorly sick :( I am hoping for another one today. I won't be going anywhere very far away from the comfort of my own bathroom IYKWIM :o

    Have a great day x x

    Goodness, the lengths some people will go to to win a race!! Don't think I'm not keeping track ol' Freebious...last time it was the cold lurgey from hell...this time it's the great white porcelain magnet of doom....;)

    In all seriousness, you take care of yourself....feel free to order up the necessities for home delivery...and how about a take away every night for the rest of the month...? Mwahahahahaha! :D

    I simply can't justify the expense if I go any less than three times a week... even though the spa there is very nice! :)
    Your plan sounds very sensible...and of course we're a very supportive bunch around here *readies the kipper* ;)

    Have a good 'un all.

    Morning all.

    Wow! This thread is fast pacing :D

    Had a spend day yesterday, so ordered my shopping for home delivery. I normally use Asda but tried Sainsbury's as I found a £10 off a £50 spend voucher. Managed to do two weeks shopping for £58 and made total savings of £31 so very happy there.

    Was hoping for a no spend day today, but that's not going to happen now. Still determined to achieve 10 no spends this month though :)
    Dear Lord, I am calling upon you today for your divine guidance and help. I am in crisis and need a supporting hand to keep me on the right and just path. My mind is troubled but I will strive to keep it set on you, as your infinite wisdom will show me the way to a just and right resolution. Amen.

    Was hoping for number 1 today but needed milk, grrrr!

    Won't be one tomorrow either, i'm joining Slimming World so will need money for that, wish me luck!
    Sxxx

    Good luck with slimming world, shezam.

    I'm on day 4 of eating healthily and managed to avoid dropping any naughties into my online shopping basket yesterday. I did think about joining a club but I'm not that good in group situations. Let us know how you get on, please, though :)

    Today's going to be a spend day for me *sigh*, the shopping list is getting longer by the minute, started out with DD needing toothpaste and now I have about 15 necessities on there, milk, cheese, grrr.....determined to make it as cheap as possible though and will try to get everything I can think of so that tomorrow and Friday can be NSDs :)

    Oooh, I've just remembered, I have £40 of M&S vouchers so I might be cheeky and go there instead and class today as a kind of NSD, as I can get probably everything I need in there (well hopefully they do children's toothpaste!) ;)
