So much work stuff has been going on that I came home last night feeling totally spaced out. Once I had fetched DS home from the cinema I crashed out in bed at around 23:30 and slept like a log. Now I am off on annual leave for the next couple of weeks so can chill out and do Narglestuff. Which reminds me, being tied up in another dimension has meant I now have a glorious
14 NSDs!!!!!!

I feel your pain Red (literally, arms hurting from Thurs night still) - apparently it does get easier but I think it's just your pain threshold increases - I hope I don't put you off by saying that after over a year, i still hurt from boot camp - I like to think it's because i'm putting in more effort each time, and prob also doesn't help that I now do three days in a row (and then pole on Thurs) so no rest days :eek:
Speaking of rest day today....front door had it's first coat of gloss, garden had a bit of a tidy (incl a full bag of leaves :eek:), bbq has been scrubbed (thanks to my OOD bicarb in the cupboard) and I'm now going to haul the car boot stuff out of the loft....I really should be a lot thinner than I am with all this activity :rotfl:Feb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

Yippee back early - Thanks to clever forum repairer people :beer:
Fed up - hope the work is going OK, you are very driven - I hope you can see an end in sight?
Kerri - busy, busy, must use up loads of cals getting all those jobs done - I do flirt with occasional whim of going to boot camp, but it sounds like I wouldn't make it to the end of the first session, & I don't think I'd ever go back...so perhaps I'll just save my dosh :eek:
ETO Life has changed so much for you since bubs arrived, it'll take a while to work out how to fit in NSD's to the new routines, you are doing amazingly well, remember what Freeby would say..each NSD is a good NSD in its own right:D
Came home full of beans tonight as I can drive to work at the weekend making the day 8 til 5 instead of 7.15- 6.30, (I know loads of people have longer days - I'm a wimp:o), did a few little jobs then crashed on the bed for 2 hours, woken full of beans again...but its a bit late & raining now :rotfl:. Was looking forward to watching 'Long Live Britain' on catch-up but after searching for ages, finally found a notice on the internet, programme not shown due to rescheduling due to an important birth... so now nothing to watch so I'm on here instead:rotfl:
NSD 19 yesterday & NSD 20 today :T:T please - on track for target - (I think :think:, have to get 3 days out of the next 4 - I CAN do this )Debt -it's a fight that I'm winning, dealing with debt one day at a time.

Any good boot camp / fitness instructor will assess a persons ability and put them in the correct class (if multiple ability classes) or tailor exercises to individuals ability if the class is mixed - for example, when doing sit ups, I do v-sits, some do 'regular' sit ups and some do small crunches. Its not made out to be competitive but to have each individual getting the most out of their session.
Bit p**d off, front door was looking good but on closer inspection some parts have wrinkled (paint wasn't thick but I suspect it might have been the heat. Also. some has bled round to the back (white part) of the door - there was some there before but it seems more noticeable now :mad: Going to try sanding the back part of the door and re-sand the front before putting the second coat on I think. Hubby says it's fine but I'm a bit of a perfectionist.
Off to do a car boot shortly (this one is a late start) - not holding out i'll make a fortune but every little helps.Feb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

Fed up - hope the work is going OK, you are very driven - I hope you can see an end in sight?
Sazzie - No choice about being driven as there are only 3 weeks to go until the dissertation deadline then the final piece of work is due in 4 weeks after that.
It's full steam ahead here then as I'm 6000 words in and 6000 words to go :eek:
Unsurprisingly then, it will be another NSD here today!final unsecured debt to repay currently £8333Proud to be Dealing With my DebtDFW Nerd 1154 Long Haul 1550 -
Yesterday was NSD No 3! .
Reached my target. I did spend money but it was only a big supermarket shop, so I'm not counting that as a spend.
Will prob have a few more NDSs this week. Can't believe it's August on Thursday!0 -
Morning
Friday, Saturday and today all NSDs, taking my total to 12 and 4 in-row (Thursday). In-a-row target met. Am declaring today early as I am not leaving my flat as have pile of ironing to do.
After a thunderstorm last night and heavy rain, the weather feels clearer and cooler with lots of sunshine
Enjoy the rest of your day.
