    Claiming NSD #8 for yesterday. Am still having a clear out in the house. Being very productive this weekend!

    Today is most certainly NOT going to be a NSD for me, as well, it's St. Patrick's Day and I wouldn't be a true Irish gal if I didn't help drown the Shamrock :beer: :D

    So Happy St. Patrick's Day to you all :beer:

    NSD #9 for me! I've spent a productive day decluttering, and then writing up some things that have been waiting forever to be done. So fruitful on both work and domestic life fronts. Yay!

    Didn't leave the house or visit any shopping sites yesterday, so that was NSD #13

    Nipped down to A!di today but only spent DS2's money (on some white chocolate bunnies for my GDs so I can drop them off before Easter), and visited a couple of shopping sites without spending anything (put an item into my basket for my next spend day, and checked the model number of an appliance I bought last year so I could find and download a manual). So I'm now on NSD #14 with 7 in a row :T

    One more for this months target, then a couple to catch up with the last 3 I missed in January (clawed 2 back last month), and then I can start getting a head-start for later in the year ;)
