  • 18/20! My 2 non-NSDs have both been Saturdays, so it was pleasant to make it through this Saturday with no spends.

    It’s not *good*, but it helps that my partner is just as broke as I am this month, so neither of us are able or motivated to go anywhere that costs money! Today was the first day that the weather has been good enough for us to see each other, and we spent the afternoon having a lovely (free!) walk in the local forest.
