    Evening everyone.

    Everyone's doing so well

    Was hoping to get an update done, but baba woke and took a while to settle back down so will try and get an update done tomorrow when he has his morning nap. :D

    NSD # 2 for me, have changed my rules slightly.

    I like to have pure NSD's but sometimes need a small grocery top up. So I take out £10 per week for grocery top ups so if I spend out of this it'll be a NSD but anything over is is a spend day. This is for needs not wants.
    SPC 18 Target £200 /
  • Haven't left the house today as it was my day off work - therefore it was NSD no.3

    Oh dear, I'm not sure if it's to do with he change in seasons or a rather tough week but I seem to have misplaced my NSD mojo ATM. Not that I'm spending more than I normally would I don't think, in fact, I haven't even really done a big pay day food shop yet this month, but I'm not feeling the desire to count whether I spend or not if that makes and sense. Perhaps it's because I'm a bit under the weather too, or just stuff that's happened this week has knocked me for six a bit. If anyone can find it, Igor has promised a free dinner in payment ....

    Thursday was NSD #2

    Yesterday was a spendy day (regular payment take from credit card, so I allowed myself some other spends- unfortunately a few too many more!!)

    Still need to go out for fresh veg today, but hoping not to get anything else which means it would still be an NSD.... must stay strong :D

    Flying in at the speed of light to drop NSD number 2 into the Cauldron of Doom! Now off to find that pesky donkey - Igor said he saw him on a bus for Aintree a few hours ago.....

    Hubert! What the fffffffflipping heck are you doing on that race course, lining up with all them there hosses? Do you really think a donkey can win the National???? Not to mention one wearing pink stiletto shoes.....and one who is a tad incontinent (and it's slippery conditions here at Aintree today, good for those who like it soft going.....)

    Igor! Fetch the donkey, there's a good chap. You can get back to planning the NSD gang Easter weekend shindig later, plenty of time for making customised Easter Eggs, just remember that when the instructions say put the melted chocolate into the mould, it means the plastic thingy that makes the patterns and not the green furry stuff.....Igor, why are you cursing and muttering and chucking away all that melted chocolate?????

    Kerri - obviously your get-up-and-go has got up and gone. It is only April 5th, so you can start again from now. And it will be more of an incentive for people to hunt for your mojo if you say their reward will be not having to sit down to a meal prepared by Igor.
    (Stampede as 40 or so NSD gang members frantically start hunting for kerri's mojo)
    One life - your life - live it!
