Hello, today will be another NSD, as I’m working from home all day and no reason to buy anything. That means I’m on day 23 today. I think this will be my last one as sadly will be buying an ‘in Sympathy’ card tomorrow.
well done everyone and thank you @cathybird ❤️2 -
Two more for me, for yesterday and today. OH has my car today and tomorrow, while his is being repaired, so am unlikely to be spending tomorrow either, but won't claim that til I can confirm that's the case. So for now am on 23/20.
