Tesco order delivered and we got all our Valentines Day meal deal. Surprise surprise! Won’t be eating or drinking it all at once. In fact, tonight we’re having some pasta instead. I love pasta.
Quiet day as usual on a Sunday. Lots to do tomorrow.Have adventures. laugh a lot and always be kind.6 -
NSD for me - I spent some money online for both DD and DS3 - but they have both reimbursed me
(I did the online order for DD as we get discounted vouchers for certain shops through DH's work and she was buying a (much needed - her old one keeps playing up and turning itself off randomly even when supposedly fully charged and she will be off out to work in 2 weeks) new phone and earbuds - saved over £50 by using the vouchers
(it's far from the latest phone, but is still a fruity product)
Lazy day - have spent much of it on here. I think downtime is needed - we are all finding this hard.

Sunday- NSD 9/15.
It's so windy and cold I can barely convince my dog to go out, so indoors and snuggled as much as possible. The roads are being cleared slowly but lots of people still snowed in.
Grateful for the temperature slowly increasing so all the white stuff will melt, sledging and snowmen, excellent friends and catch up TV.8 -
No NSD today, placed an order for vitamins that I'm running low on and some of those heated back patches - I love those things! Went for a horse ride, the wind was something else! Luckily he's a sensible sausage and not bothered by the wind. Was nice to get out.
Met my friend for coffee and bought some eggs (and some brownies found their way into my bag!). Have spent the rest of the day pottering and reading my book. Just had a nice bath and dinner. Have a long day at work tomorrow and will be out all day so got everything prepped and just chilling now.7 -
hi all
NSD #9 i think/hope as i used Mr C points to buy milk and a loaf of sourdough for the freezer.
DD1 called round with a bunch of flowers for me but stayed in the garden, went for a walk with DD1's bestie, cold, windy and rainy but good to be outside - even better to come back indoorsTidied and dusted my bedroom and cleaned bathroom. Done some more of my qualification, making very slow progress even though i've spent days & weeks on it. Got to finish by May though so focus, focus....
gratitudes - DD1's thoughtfulness and lovely to see her from a 6m distance; cosy home with nice food and wine; lighter nights

Hi everyone
I am still on NSD 6. Top up shop this morning.
Having a slow morning, no desire to go to the gym. Not sure whether to renew my membership when it runs out at the end of the month. I feel it hasn’t really done me much good, perhaps I am focusing too much on cardio. ..and maybe I should be getting out in the fresh air for that.
Had a nice weekend, went out with bf’s mates for a couple of drinks but did get a bit sad at one stage, missing home and my own fam and friends. However I know everyone is in the same boat at the moment.
All spends within budget and no takeaways last week! Yay! we did go for a cheap breakfast on Sunday. I also made myself two FAKEaway pizzas.
Have enrolled in a new online course but it doesn’t start until mid March. Grateful for it being pay day tomorrow, for being able to save a little cash for the first time in months, for bf being in a better mood this week.
