  • Eeek,I've got three pages to catch up on.It'll have to wait until tomorrow...

    Loads of snow here as well.It looks lovely,but I hate the stuff.:(

    I've had a rethink with my nsd rules.Because budgeted spends don't count,in theory every day could be an nsd,as long as I stay in budget-which I usually do.I really miss having a 'pure' nsd (though it still happens;)),so now am going to change my rules:

    -direct debits,bills in general,prescriptions and going swimming (got a membership card) don't count
    -anything else counts!

    This means that I am still at #3 for Saturday,Sunday and today.I wonder if 18 nsds is now a bit ambitious.I can still spend two days a week which is maybe just possible.;)


    Freeby,can you also put me down for 4 in a row please?!

    Have a good evening everyone!
  • Reporting in with NSD 5 for today:j

    and 4-in-a-row, so fingers crossed I can hit my 5-in-a-row target tomorrow:)

    #3 banked today!

    Yesterday ended somewhat interestingly as I had to made a trip to minor injuries for a chicken bone stuck in my throat! :rotfl:Okay now though! Just a bit tender. :o A £2.50 parking charge, but I've never counted hospital parking, so all is okay.

    Spent today doing supply teaching with a particularly energetic bunch of Year 3's. A noisy bunch, but good kids really. Have been asked to go back and take them again tomorrow, just for the morning though.

    It's so cold out there tonight that I just want to hibernate! Trying to decide whether pre-7pm is too early to turn in for the night. ;) Probably.
    Because it's fun to have money!

    Well today wasn't a NSD - actually it could have technically been one as the 'only' think I ended up paying out for was to have my siamese eyebrows separated for £5 as a meeting at lunchtime went on longer than expected so I didn't have time to check anything else on my list.

    But, I do need to go to the other end of town tomorrow before a £2 off £20 coupon runs out and I prob wouldn't have had time to do that and have my brows done tomorrow. So my best run of NSD comes to an end, but not a bad start to the month.

    Brrr, chilly here today but thankfully no white stuff.
