    Not one for me, I paid a plumber, then bought some wood filler (oh the glamour of it all). :)
    Not one for me today, I had to buy more filters for my dust mask and extra heavy duty bin bags for getting rid of disgusting old insulation ... I am joining you in the glamorous life!  :D

    Not one for me today - bought two cheap, easy to wear tops in Mr M’s this morning. 

    However, I am *delighted* by my total of NSDs this month. Didn’t seem possible when I started! 😊

    Today was NSD #19, which I am sure is a record for me. I am so pleased 

    Definitely became easier to reach the bigger numbers a couple of months ago, when I started bunching up different spends onto the same day  :)  .
