Evening :wave:
Spoon & Freeby, thanks for updating.
As predicted, yesterday was a spend day but I have managed one today bringing my total to 9.
It's so warm here again but am not moaning really - it will be cold again soon enough! At least it's Friday tomorrow
Have a good evening.

Thank you Marmite, DD is still having problems but she's happy to be back at work. She's in admin at a doctors surgery so she's in a good place if anything happens.:D

Good evening folks and a happy thirsty thursday from me:)
As it is friday eve, I have had 2 glasses of red juice to celebrate:). It has been very funny weather wise in NI today, with heavy outbursts of rain and thunder/lightning tonight:eek:!
I managed to accumulate NSDs 12&13 for yesterday and today:D
I had a productive but good day in work and am now just relaxing my weary bones. Went to circuit training on Monday night for the first time and my body is still feeling the pain:mad:. Mind you, that is an improvement, as it was totally broken on Monday night and Tuesday:eek:
I hope everyone is well and is enjoying whatever sunshine/heat was available today:)
Rising, well done on the NSD and it is a start:)If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.
£2 savings jar £300:D
Total credit card debts £1250:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: - Will I ever learn!!0 -
Evening everone
That's the front page up to date again. :T
Rising - Remember the old mantra 'every NSD is a good NSD' and they all count. So bloomin' well done you.
Another NSD for me today :j
I thought it was going to turn out spendy as I had to take my dog to the vetThe puppy has "cold tail" which is, apparently, very painful. It certainly seems that way, she has done a lot of crying
Anyway, the vet checked her all over, diagnosed her and then gave her a painkiller injection, told me to bring her back tomorrow if she was no better and he would leave some pain killers in reception for me. So I was expecting to have to remortgage or something when I went to pay but the lovely man said "No Charge" I almost kissed him (infact I should have coz he was very nice looking
)
Not very often something nice like that happens
Have a great Friday tomorrow. I shall be wiggling :jFree by FiftyDebt of the Moment -August NSD Challenge 14/150 -
