    I went to the dentist, the library, and the park. Only spent at the dentist and I'm taking that as a prescription charge, so an NSD for me today! 🥳

    An unexpected NSD today.  Was sure it was going to be an expensive day but didn't happen and then I was on a train on my way home, so tempted to buy a coffee to keep me going after a long day but I couldn't waste the chance of a day I hadn't expected.  Makes it 4/15.
