    NSD #5/16 

    PS - My circumstances have changed. I MUST stay on this challenge! Please do not let me leave this challenge!!!  :s
    @CMD79 gosh - hope everything is OK? xx
    Yes, my husband gave me the money to pay off a huge chunk of debt, and now I'm a gibbering, nervous wreck that I'm going to cook up some hair brained scheme! I really must make sure I don't let it all unravel now I've come this far..... but I'm a nightmare! I feel like any second now a £500 M&S hamper is going to get ordered! :#
    You so don't want or need a hamper.
    Be strong.
    It is so worth it.

    I just need to keep checking in. I've had a couple of weird days at work, so I have spent small amounts, but nothing dire....
