NSD 13 for me today

Evening everyone!

I loved today's cartoon If, it is exactly my Monday feeling

I have a NSD to add to the pot, which brings me up to NSD #12

I have my target in my sights and am closing in!!

Nargleblast

Whooppee! Made target! 12 NSDs with my name on them reside in the Cauldron of Doom! Pass me my bunch of bluebells, please, Freeby! And please increase my target to 15 - I rather fancy a shot at the bunch of camp-looking cowslips......

Reached target with NSD 10 yesterday and beat it today with NSD 11.
I've been lucky to have been bought one of the Nooks that were in the MSE weekly email a couple of weeks ago. My lovely DD got it me for my birthday tomorrow but as it arrived today ..... . The only trouble with it is you have to go on wifi to register it. Luckily my DD has wifi so that's sorted. I'm on my 2nd book already.

Hugs for all who need one.

Welcome to our newbies.

Not a NSD today as some of that popping chocolate may have popped into my basket :eek: :rotfl:

Evening everyone :wave: thank goodness Monday's nearly over:j

Spyderbryte - sorry about your carp weekend and hope your uncle made some improvement today. Your OH needs a lesson in security methinks....

HAW - Yeeeehhhoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! indeed :j

hanb - glad you think we're a friendly lot, we're tame when fed
Re the tobacco, it depends really on what you want to tackle by joining in with counting NSDs. If it's unnecessary spends (as in my case) then maybe set yourself a budget for the week and if you go over that, count it as a spend? It's really up to you to decide what you think would work for you and, don't forget, if you cheat you're only cheating yourself. You can always amend your rules if you find something doesn't work for you, nothing is set in stone here:D Hope that helps x

beanie - funny about the popping chocolate, it knows exactly where to land

.... and.... drum roll please... I have finally managed NSD no 12a after a mega-spendy weekend:o:o. NSD no 14 should trot along obediently tomorrow, fingers crossed

Thanks Solventsoon that's a great help. I'm going to play along (in my head) for the rest of the month to see what works ready for June!

I'm only tame when fed! Luckily I did well out of the store cupboard tonight

Good Morning

Hope everyone is raring to go for the start of another week. Energy levels refreshed? Brain relaxed and ready to start working again? no????............................me neither. Why are the weekends so bleedin' short?

Lord knows, Freeby, but if you find out, let me know and tell me why, please:eek:

Sazzie- I have no idea at the moment what we need to do to beat April's targets but I do know we are way behind Everyone here is doing a great job but it is the folks who join up at the beginning of the month and then don't come back who make it difficult to reach the target

I've just been doing some adding up, Freeby (using all of my fingers and toes many times over:D:D) and there are 11 people who've signed up but not posted any updates. If we take them away, there are 41 of us who have reported in at least once and we've nabbed 327 NSDs between us which makes 7.97 per person..
That's not too bad bearing in mind we've got 10 days left to go:)

Have a fantastic Monday everyone, remember if there wasn't a Monday we'd never get to Friday

Well that's a thought, I guess

No probs, hanb, glad you found my ramblings useful .... and please call me "spoon", everyone else does:D

It's a good idea to play along for the next few days, it'll give you some idea of what to expect in June.. a lot of people get a shock when they first join in

Glad you're well fed.. at least I won't have to keep looking over my shoulder!!:rotfl::rotfl:

getting-there-slowly

Just been checking the bank account against the calendar - can you increase my target to 14 :A
