    Morning If :wave: You ok?

    In the spirit of non-spendyness, I am declaring NSD 10 today. Yes, I know it's early...but I've only a post office trip to do today and I've got the pennies set aside from some spendy days over the weekend...so all sorted!

    I do believe *shufties a look in Freeby's direction* that takes me to my target...

    Nora.

    Can I join in? I'm finding things a bit tight after being off work since October. I figure I can do 2 no spend days a week so 6 to take me to the end of Feb?

    iwwh I sent a copy of your baby instructions to DD as she is expecting. She hasn't said anything about it yet.....:o I hope she realises it is a joke.

    I have managed 11 NSDs so far this month:j:j:j:j

    We will have enough spare cash to pay off the garage bill at last and before the next one comes in.

    And I have some eggs to sell too. Happy day today. So now I am going to go to town with DD. Do vouchers count as spending? I have £10 Argos, £5 topshop etc. and £50 for the local beauty/health spa.

    I think most NSDers see using vouchers as NOT spending,so you're ok.Well done on getting so many NSDs and getting the bill paid!

    Afternoon folks!

    Well, I have had my meeting and I can hopefully draw a line under the whole sorry saga!

    I went in with a reasonable approach, stated my case and got profuse apologies. She was on the verge of tears and admitted that she was under a lot of pressure. I was able to reassure her that I wasnt after her job and that Iall I want to do is to do a good job in the hours I'm paid to work - no more!
    I felt I cleared the air with regard to "micro-managing" and all my issues and I am happy.
    I was fortuitous that just prior to my mtg, the "big" boss had meeting with the whole dept regarding "work-life" balance and said that he wasnt happy with the amount of "presenteeism" going on and that he wasnt impressed by it!

    Thankfully, I wont need to bore you all with any more tales - thanks for listiening, it means a lot!:A


    you will always be rich enough to be generous.

    Have a good week
