    4/10 NSD for yesterday, looking hopeful for another today, too, considering I have this awful flu!

    Declaring a late NSD for yesterday. I am not counting replacing a used up glue stick and a pack of paper for the kids to draw on as I am considering them as usual consumables.

    Not one today as I bought a birthday cake topper for DS’s birthday. Saves me actually learning how to decorate cakes properly 😆 Won’t be one tomorrow either as we are treating ourselves to a roast lunch at the pub. The only sensible course of action when it’s this cold 🥶

    Did a grocery shop this morning using a gift card we had for Christmas, so as I spent no money I am calling that a NSD. 11/15

    Not one for me today. I booked theatre tickets for November to take my Mum to see The Sound of Music 😁 
    @AuntieL

    I was looking for theatre tickets yesterday to take my mum to see The Souhd of Music! I didn’t find any so went for Mary Poppins in August instead (so no NSD for me either…but something tells me I could have tried harder to find Sound of Music!)

    Spent money on theatre tickets as a birthday present for my mum yesterday. 

    Definitely an NSD today but I could embarrassingly lose heavily at Scrabble 🤦🏻‍♀️

    so that’s 9 so far.
