    Easter Sunday = NSD 
    Easter Monday = NSD - and that's despite running out of chocolate biscuits! No chocolate bars left either! I tried to satisfy the 9 year old inside me with a jam sandwich and a hot chocolate, which didn't completely work but at least they couldn't claim they were hungry after that.

    I will need to do some shopping tomorrow though, I've run out of nearly all food except frozen vegetables.

    Hi
    I’m afraid my NSDs aren’t going well this month, at all. Yesterday I needed some veg, bad planning on my part. I normally have frozen in but had run out. Today I need a birthday card and tomorrow is a biggie because we’re eating out for DS2s birthday. I just need to get a bit more organised.
    Well done to all on here and hugs for those that need them.
