    NSD 1/15 for me today! Good start, although will be going out mid-week.
    Mortgage free by 33 - (21/07/22 - 32 years and a bit...)

    Most DIY problems can be solved by a combination of spanner, pliers, screwdriver, Allan key and a blade. (Hold it, twist it, cut it!) Very occasionally industrial language, a hammer and an adhesive may need to be added to the mix. (Curse it, hit it, patch it!)
  • No NSD's for me thus far. Today will be though.

    Tue-Thu is a work trip to London, which will all be on expenses, so at least that'll be 3 NSD's. As should Friday actually as I've brought in all my food.
  • It will be a NSD for me today - bringing me to 2/15. :)

    The payday excitement hasn't served us well so far :wall:
    Still on 0, although in my defense, I haven't spent anything, but my husband has, both non essential spends yesterday and today. (I was a good wife and only nagged a tiny bit ;) )

    He's aware of our target, so I'm going to crack down extra hard from now on. (I'm a wonderful spouse really, I promise... :p )

    I think we would always be at 0 if I did it this way!:rotfl:

    On 2/10 now :)
