    Really pleased with myself that I'm declaring my 2nd NSD. Tomorrow won't be one as DD has Brownies, and I will need to get bread. Really pleased with my start to the month though :)

    Well done on the job Keiss :T

    Well yesterday wasn't a NSD, I was lured into that internet shopping - ordered some bra's from Debs before the 10% code ran out, won't be keeping them all but will try them on at home (although thinking I should perhaps just get a 2 pack from M&S Outlet and be done with it - but it would be nice to have some nice undergarments for once, one of the few I have was bought years ago with a friend whom I can't even remember the last time I saw :eek:)

    Declaring NSD #1 for today though :A Got my eye on something for my nieces 1st b'day (bit more than I'd usually spend but its a lovely little keepsake, it's a silver world in a little box with a card that reads 'This sterling silver box holds a reminder that the world is yours to explore, limitless in experiences and full of love. Here’s to a life of discovery. ' Thought is was something a bit more special than new toys etc which hopefully she'll keep forever. anyway, need a couple of foody bits so will order that tomorrow when I hit Tacto too.

    Hope everyone is ok - off to update sig xx

    Thanks for all your kind wishes, looking forward to my trial day next week, a week before I am off on holiday to see my dad for two weeks! The chap seemed happy with this...booked my flights a month ago, so no changing them now. :D

    LMH - my other jobs are:
    IT work (5 hours/week);
    Invigilating
    (very variable hours, from 0 to over 20/week!!), where I can decide when I work..or not.
    The last is my crafting to sell and try to make a profit...not very easy if you try to earn a decent hourly wage. :( I decided put this on hold a month or so ago, as making lots of things for friends and family. Now I have come up with things that could well be quite sellable...if I have the time to make them!! This shop job will bring in some regular money, which will go towards paying for our two sons at Uni come September :eek:! Luckily DS1 finishes next year, so then we'll be down to one set of accommodation costs...and all the rest!!

    Rising - ooh another lefty!!! Well, I suppose I'm rather ambidextrous. I taught myself my own method of crocheting when I was a teenager, and when I tried to take it up again last year, I couldn't remember how I did it!! So I am trying to learn the righty's way now...struggling a bit, but managing to get a few small things made. Perhaps I'll eventually remember how I did it before...:o

    Hoping for an NSD tomorrow...but could be spending on Wednesday (DS1's fancy road bike is getting a service!).

    Need to get to bed soon, had a restless night last night.

    Have a good week everyone x
