Felt a bit out of sorts when I got up this morning (didn't sleep well Saturday night, so suspect that may have been catching up with me), so didn't go to the gym. As such I wasn't near the big supermarket, so decided to cobble together a meal from stuff I had in again.
As such I'm happy to report that today was NSD #11
Need to shop for milk for DS and vegetables for both of us tomorrow or Wednesday (and bread for me unless I run the machine tomorrow - didn't even feel up to doing that today), but haven't decided which day yet. Would like to go to the gym for (at least) a swim tomorrow, so if I do I'll get the shopping while I'm there.Cheryl0 -

my friends mum used to do this when we were at school, she'd make all the weeks sarnies on a Sun and freeze them. What fillings do you use Flubberyzing? I like the idea but can't imagine salad freezes very well :rotfl:NSD no 16 today.
More snow today.
In good news got some info from my neurologist that I needed.
Baby steps.
Glad you got some good news / info beanie - you've been very quiet of late - sense you need some hugs xx
Well part of my day has been very virtuous... was up in time for 6.30am boot camp, I'm either hardcore...or mental :rotfl:
however, it was all downhill from there, had a spectacularly spendy morning with (yet more) bedding from a certain website - i MUST stop looking at it
and then £25 on a Group0n deal. This wasn't so bad though as it's for an MOT and winter car check, and my car is due it's MOT in April. It's a little more inconvenient to get to, but I can wait, and my usual garage charges £45 for the MOT. Just hope they don't then add on a fortune of things that need to be done. Did feel a bit guilty for choosing this over my usual garage though.
Following that I managed to spend £18 in Tacto Metro (quite a feat in our rubbish store) although £12 of that was two 2kg bags of dry cat food, and two boxes of pouches.
Oh, it also included a bottle of the black stuff as I'm currently cooking a beef and stout stew (kinda take on the Irish stew...a day late :rotfl:) and as kind as Igor's offer was to use some of his special Paddy's day stout, I do want my stew to be edible. Just needs a lot of slow cooking, which is a pain as I'd love an early night.
Must get back on the NSD wagon tomorrow - don't know what's been the matter with me lately - seem to have really given in to lots of 'wants' which is unlike me:o
