    One more NSD.
    But I need to spend again tomorrow. And today I wasn't really active either. When I'm at work all day I don't spend - I've mostly got into that good habit, but I'm so good at avoiding anything that resembles housework (including crafts that I've already started) that when I'm not at work I either vegetate or spend money.

    Number 12 today and 2 Easter eggs given from my partner’s work to help me stay away from impulse buying something sweet. What a shame he doesn’t like chocolate…
