I am soooo off the ball this month - both sons have been home from Uni and as a result we ran out of something (usually a basic foodstuff) pretty much every day!
One returned Saturday and the other Sunday, so as a result I've finally managed an NSD yesterday and am going for another today.#21 Save £12k in 2025 £25577.35/£200003 -
Not Today I bought dining chairs, which is what I had been saving for and I got a few groceries! Yay me!3

Another NSD for me today. I am delighted that I've got to my target of 4. This has changed my focus as after pay day, which was last week, we usually go for a takeaway but we've not done that. Tonight's dinner is made and ready to go so feel like we're past the temptation of going for a takeaway this month.
