    Happy Birthday Sazzie. Hope you had a fab day. :beer:

    No NSD for me. I have found this month a little easier than last however I am still just popping to the shops too regularly. I really need to look carefully at what we need for the month. Such as nappies, wipes, certain foods that we get through a lot of. Then buy those early on and then only have to top up as we go.

    Hope everyone's well. Well done on some big numbers being posted.

    Sounds like you have a plan and a goal, keep up the good work, it is good to get out though, just need to find a way to go out but still get your NSD.

  • Friday gave me NSD 11 (as well as my second 3-in-a-row this month :j) and Sunday brings me to my target which is 12 NSDs.

    There is something I have been struggling with - I was wondering if anyone has any advice to share.

    I recently had to give up work due to ill health, so obviously now my income has dropped sticking to a budget is more important than ever. However, I'm also anxious to keep myself motivated to get out and about. Lately I seem to have fallen in to the pattern of NSD = not leaving the house that day, which isn't a habit I want to get in to.

    Any suggestions/advice gratefully received.

    Thanks!
