Hello everyone!
Yesterday for NSD 3 for me. I managed to talk hubby round into NOT getting dishwasher tablets (branded ones no less) and instead, using some of the THREE bottles of washing up liquid and use them up the old fashioned way! Im also running out of shampoo and conditioner.. at least I thought so. Managed to find some samples etc to use up. Im also very proud I didnt rent a single movie this week (was starting to become a habit and it all adds up!) and have been watching dvds and things on the iplayer instead. no takeaways either this week! As its so warm today, we will just be having a fish finger sandwich tonight!! as good as a take away if you ask me!!
Sadly, today wasnt a NSD. We had ran out completley of tea bags, toilet roll and bread. Still, it only came to 6.50 (oh yeah, I bought two bars of choc too!) I then went to my local slimming club and was given the latest mag free as I help out every week so thats saved me 2 quid. we then went to inlaws who gave me a tenner for our boys, so thatll go towards a day out over the next few weeks.
Hope everyone is feeling as positive as I!Life is like a cup of tea. Its all about how you make it...

Whew! It's a bit warm down here - my clothing today has been getting tinier and tinier :eek: I also realise that should I get to go on holiday next year I think I will need to invest in a few new pieces, found one sun top today that must be about 15yrs old! :eek:
Not a NSD here as had my hair done earlier, only a tiny trim and the colour redone - in fact I'm not sure it looks that much different this time but hey ho.
Apart from that a lazy day, in fact I've been busy snoozing after some disturbed nights thanks to this heat. Got the beef stroganoff back cooking slowly in the oven - fingers crossed it works out ok - also found a pork shoulder in the freezer so thinking of getting that out and doing a slow pulled pork with a rub, but perhaps I'll wait for next weekend for that.
Hope you're all enjoying the sun, and don't forget the sun cream!Feb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

Good afternoon folks,
It is quite warm in NI today and still sunny, although thankfully a bit cooler than the last few days. Not an NSD for me today, as I was out buying bits and pieces of groceries I have forgotten yesterday! I am off out tonight anyway, so will be spending again!! Freeby, I hope you are feeling better soon. To everyone else, I hope you are well and enjoy the rest of Saturday.If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.
