    NSD for me 12/15.

    "Make Everyday Count"



  • I'm really struggling to keep up with November!
    Last update I gave was on the 16th.
    I had one day each on 17th and 18th, another day on the 20th, one more on the 23rd and one more yesterday. This is 5 days which brings me up to 15/15 I believe!

    Tonight I'm going to a wreath making evening at the local pub, so it's a spend day, tomorrow I'm in the office so I know I'll spend on coffee or other stuff, and Wednesday I have line dancing (I just joined last week! love it!)
    Next possible NSD could be on the 30th, Thursday, I'll report back then!

    For December I'd like to keep the 15 NSD target please, as I know it will be difficult enough to reach that one! Planning to up it in January, but that's a thought for next month!
