Up to 10 NSDs, so i will probably hit the 15!
Bought a comfort burrito on Friday so no NSD on that day. On Sunday, I didn't waste any money but I did contribute to a charity event that my friend was hosting. We brought leftover wedding beers so we didn't spend any money on consumables. We thought about going to the supermarket on our way home but thought better of it and ate food from the fridge. Well done us.
Saturday and Monday were both NSDs. We've also had much better luck with selling things lately. We made £30 yesterday selling a few items, £5 over the weekend. Looking like £50 from those online book buyers. Boxes are being packed! Partner is coming round to the whole idea.
Sashanut, keeping you and your DD in my thoughts.Mortgage started at £318,000 in June 2016. Original MF - 2041 :eek:
2nd Property Mortgage at £275,000. Mortgage free: 2049 :eek:
Total OPs: £295290 -
apple muncher the doctor did say it probably would've been easier if I'd broken my ankle! Clearly I did not take them seriously enough!
sasha nut so sorry to hear that news, it's never easy and always leaves so many questions that can never really be answered. Hope DD is holding up okay.
Made the stupid decision to drive to work today. Ankle was okay in the car but the pain is worse overall today. I may work from home for the rest of the week instead.
Had a NSD yesterday and today will be a NSD as well.0 -
Thanks everyone. I'm feeling much better today.
Himself and I went for a walk through the park. It's the long and much prettier way to get to the shops. I needed to buy tights and cleansing lotion. Really did need that. I've been using up all my half full bottles and am only left with a tiny amount in the bottom of the last bottle. Good news was the kind I like was half price in Superdrug. Whilst we were out I took a couple of tops which I will no longer wear (and actually have only worn once) to the charity shop.

Sashanut - so sorry to hear the sad news. Such a difficult time for everyone involved - hope that your dd is as ok as can be.
LCC - hope that you're looking after that ankle. I sprained mine about 20 years ago, and I was on crutches for about 10 weeks - took ages to get better, and even now causes a bit of a problem in the winter.
I've just woken from a very uncomfortable nap on the sofa. I didn't think that I'd fall asleep curled up in the teeny way I was, but I did. That will also wreck my sleep later as well. Boo hiss!
Went out with bestie and our boys today to an inflatable session at the pool. They thoroughly enjoyed it, and at £7.00 for 90 minutes it was well worth it. Then we went to a local caf! for lunch and the boys ate free with our meals, which was also well worth it.
Finally got access back to YNAB while they sort out double charging me so I've updated my budget as well. Tight, but exam pay arrives tomorrow :TNot giving up
