Yesterday was not a NSD as I had to order a new mattress protector and mattress cover for the new bed that will (finally!) be delivered on Monday. While I was at it I also ordered a baby shower card and happy birthday card for my friend, as she’s holding her baby shower next weekend and her birthday is in a couple of weeks.Today is definitely going to be a NSD!Debt free journey started 30/08/2023:
