    We never ever use the 'f' word on here :eek: We do our very best and sometimes life just gets in the way but every NSD is a good NSD, so, regardless if we hit our target or not, we are focusing on our finances and that's gotta be better than before :)

  • Won't be tomorrow as at hospital and at the most ridiculous unearthly hour - they don't seem to take any account of how far people have to travel / how long it'll take to get there:mad:.

    Had Dr, then Registrar & then Specialist Nurse on phone this afternoon as blood tests done on Friday are all wonky again :( ..... keep your fingers crossed they can do my infusion tomorrow .....

    That is too bad rising.I hope you can still have your treatment.(((hugs)))

    Have been having a big debate about this ...... TBH it's likely that I'll get a few bits & pieces when I'm out anyway - could really do with some trashy mags to read as can't really concentrate long enough to get into books etc. Not something I buy often but .....:o

    DM is being an absolute :A and taking me again - which means she needs to leave home at 6am!:eek:

    Just popping in to check up on you all during my month off :D

    Congratulations Citizen - looks like we all need new hats for next year :beer:

    Good Morning everyone (just realised what time it is :eek:),
    I have to declare a NSD for yesterday:j, that would be NSD 8 :j:j(have to update my sig as well), not sure though about today as I have to pay a cheque for my class (due now, but planned and budgeted for...another NSD then:p).
    Looking forward to shopping at T£sco :) as that's not my usual SM (used to be years back) and planning to apply for a club card to start saving more money and getting more/better vouchers :T.
    Please correct me if I am wrong, how do you class your holiday? A SD when you go shopping and NSD when you don't? I'm sure I read it somewhere here, it would take me a long time to find it. (Not lazy, just ready for bed now). Many thanks.
    T&J. Nite-nite.

    It's really up to you how you class your SD/NSD - some people have budgeted a specific spending fund so it doesn't count, some people still count as normal and I just lowered my target for the month last time I was away - in effect not counting the time I was away at all (a holiday in all respects :D)

    Hope you're all behaving in my absence :p
