Awesome going everyone!

Declaring another NSD early today 23/27 as there is no way on earth I've got the energy or interest to even think about spending money over the weekend. It's going to have to be a total bed rest weekend with a little basic house hold rubbish decluttering, wiping over the kitchen surfaces, and hopefully, taking baby face for a walk each day
It's very quiet on MSE today, so I hope everyone is ok after the rain & storm x Edit: I've just looked at the headlines on BBC News and it's been carnage with the storm by the looks of it!
And now the rain has returned here again
Wishing everyone a great weekend xx~ NSD 2025 - NSD November 16/15 (11 x💯)# Spectos/Royal Mail Monitoring and Posting Panel - On Rest - 2 x £25 Vouchers Redeemed, 29 FREE Books of RM Stamps & 2 x Presentation Pack.~ Totally FREE Christmas 2025 - 🎁✉️🏷🎀💐🪪🗒🧺⭐️Completed Challenges 2025:# No.36 Make £2025 in 2025 £1698.68 / £2025 (4) 💯💯💯# No.12 Save £2 a Day 2025 £730/ £730 💯# No.27 Save 1p A Day 2025 £667.95 / £667.95 💯# No.19 52 Week Env Challenge £1378 / £1378 💯# No.34 Save £12k in 2025 £21,877.08 / £12,000 💯 (11) - Continuing3 -
I spent on the 23rd and 24th, but that's OK as I've already passed my target.
Next month will be harder, I was going to increase my target but I think I'm going to be bored a lot so I'll need distractions. (I probably have enough cleaning to just do that all day / every day, but I know that's not going to happen).
