    I am happily declaring NSD #3. A dear friend bought jewellery from my etsy shop, which paid the etsy fees and some left over, I think if we took it to the judges it would be a technical fail, but I'm still declaring it a win :p

    So excited! I've managed NSD #2 today :j:j

    Ridiculous though it sounds I've only just realised it! Also thinking about it I should manage another one tomorrow as only parking that I need to pay and as that is a fully claimable expense fully I'm not counting it, otherwise I couldn't do my job:o

    I will be back to update tomorrow :p

    Evening everyone :wave:

    Another update coming up, hope everyone’s had a good day and managed to enjoy some sunshine:)

    Well done to:

    beanie - woohooo to NSD no 6.:j:j That’s a fabby start to the month for you, very well done :T:T

    BigMumma - “perfectly manicured garden”... was that the same Ennessdee Towers that I’m looking at now, if so, have you seen the state of the grass..... Hubert’s been eating chocolate again:eek::rotfl:.... yay to NSD no 3, that’s a great start for you this month, keep it up now!:j:j

    Dragon - yay to NSD no 4 and a fabby 4 in-a-row:j:jYou’re on a roll as always, keep it going!:T

    getting-there-slowly - I’m easily confused by Bank Holidays as well, gts.:rotfl: It’s never too late to declare an NSD though so well done for nabbing NSD no 3.:j:j Keep going now!:T

    julie - and you should be excited at declaring NSD no 2, that’s a great start for you, keep it up now!:j:j
    Fingers crossed for no 3 tomorrow as well:T

    kerri - wooohoooo to NSD no 6:j:j You’re on a roll this month, keep it going now!:T

    mad_scientist - yay to NSD no 4 yesterday, that’s brilliant.:j:j I don’t blame you for celebrating the sunshine today, we get far too few sunny days to celebrate, good for you!:T Hope you enjoyed the iced coffee:D

    ModestyB - well done for nabbing NSD no 2 even with your very spendy weekend, that’s some achievement! :j:j And even weller done for NSD no 3 today:j:j despite DH’s pleas to be let out.. I take it he’s back in the cellar again:rotfl:
    Hope DIL enjoyed her birthday and glad you enjoyed the day out to Weston.:T
    Congrats on your new star - I think it’s 700 posts, from memory... it’s a while ago now for me!! ;)

    Ninno820 - declaring NSDs is never boring, wash your mouth out with soap for that thought!!:p Seriously, well done for nabbing NSD no 3, you’re doing brilliantly:j:j I’m pleased that life is rolling along nicely for you at the moment, long may it continue:T

    rogueylawyer - you should be happy declaring NSD no 3, that’s a brilliant start to the month for you, well done.:j:j Great news on selling some jewellery:T I think I’d probably call that a win as well...... but I think Freeby might have something to say about the “fail” word being used again:rotfl:

    Spyderbryte - I hope you’ve recovered from being chased by Jaws following the use of the “fail” word last week,:rotfl: but you’ve redeemed yourself admirably by nabbing NSD nos 3 and 4, woohooooo!!:j:j Keep going now :T

    wildcherry - I guess doing household chores has to have some benefit and it’s brought you NSD no 3, well done you!! :j:j You’re entitled to feel virtuous after that lot so I’ll lend you my halo and you can polish it for a while:D:rotfl:
    :) The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time :)

    Beautiful Big Mamma!

    On a more boring note - today is NSD number 3. LIfe is gently rolling along nicely. Hope that everyone else is okay. xx


    Hey Ninno,

    I have put you on our front page but I have a feeling you meant to post in Kat's challenge. It's confusing when the two threads have the same name :cool:

    Weirdest dream last night. Dreamt I was at a fun fair with my family, and we were all dressed up as disney princesses (even the guys...) and i remember shouting at everyone who was spending money because, and i vaugely remember actually saying this (verified by Tim, who i apparently woke up with it) "You can't spend because its a NSD and you'll ruin the sponge if you do!"

    Anyhoo, 5th NSD yesterday =D But, i'm not sure about today. Trying to work out if I need to get petrol or not. I'll ask the sponge.

    5 NSD's mum and dad came over for the bank holiday brought goodies, and gave me £20.00 to spend that needs to go into the holdiay pot though, but it was nice to be spoilt a little bit :D just what the doctor ordered.
