    Evening all

    I was going to claim yesterday as NSD 7 but really it wasn't although I managed to come back with money due to a refund. Since I'd only be conning myself, I've given myself the KUTB and am admitting that today was a little spendy too as went out for (planned) lunch, and got burnt in the process :o. Spend was budgeted but not a necessary spend so no NSD today either.

    That means I'm still stuck on NSD 6 at day 9. This gives me 22 days to get 17 more NSD ...hmmm need to plan a bit but can be done. If I had a brain and a bit more foresight I'd have realised tomorrow might be a spend too but It'll have to be in budget now :eek:

    Have a good evening everyone,
    Freeby - go for 10k you'll soon realise that's doable and be aiming higher:)
