    Hi everyone, I can't log in everyday for an update but I lurk from my phone.

    So far I have 5 NSDs and 5 in a row. I will have to spend tomorrow as it's shopping day. Really pleased with progress so far.

    BMF you gotta stick at Zumba! It's soooooo much fun! You can't have that much fun working out to a DVD at home!!

    I started back at Zumba a few weeks ago and decided it's a necessary spend and it has to be within my budget. I love it!! :D:D

    (Still no NSD in March yet :o)

    Hi All,

    I'm just popping in to record NSD#2. Today is the first day without my thermal vest and I was doing okay until this afternoon but am really feeling it now. Heating is off now apart from a couple of hours morning and night when the DC are getting up/going to bed. Still work tomorrow and its always warm in the office so I'll make up for it then!
    Tomorrow won't be a NSD as I have had to pay for my next round of dance classes and ordered some cupcakes for a charity event and have to pay for those.
    Thursday might be though!

  • Happy Sunny Sun Shiny Day everyone :D

    Managed 2 NSD's so far, today wasn't one as I caught up with my lovely friend over some breakfast in the local caf! and it was my turn to pay.

    Aiming for a few more this week.

    I have bagged NSD 3 today.

    It has stayed foggy and cold here all day and I was shouting at the weatherman on TV who was telling everyone what a lovely day it is. I hope the rest of you have enjoyed the sun on my behalf.
