Saturday and Sunday have both been NSD's here. I was tempted today but still adhering to "essential journeys" which a dash for chocolate is not really so I stayed home.

Thanks cathybird I think you may have done - the start date has been a long time coming! 1 week to go cannot wait, although not looking forward to virtual meetings with my grown out fringecathybird said:
Well done on the new contract bloomfelt! Can't remember if I said congratulations for this before.bloomfelt said:Well done everybody on all your NSD's
After a few busy days and not logging on i had to figure out where i am with the challenge. I am up to 5 days now with Wed/Thur/sat being NSD's and Friday I had to buy my nieces birthday present (nearly forgot as was so busy concentrating on DH) and replace ink in the printer which couldnt wait as i need to print and sign a page of my new contract

Well done LivingInTheBlack, short bird and Dottles


Dottles, think the strong feeling on the thread a couple of days ago was that chocolate is an essential, but on the other hand getting the NSD is good too!

I know what you mean bloomfelt, I trimmed my own fringe a few days ago, think it's definitely better when the hairdresser does it! Best of luck when you start the job, hope it turns out to be what you were hoping for xbloomfelt said:Thanks cathybird I think you may have done - the start date has been a long time coming! 1 week to go cannot wait, although not looking forward to virtual meetings with my grown out fringe
