    Third one today!  So, 3/10

    Yesterday really was a no-go zone as it was my husband's birthday party.  I need a million NSDs now.  :#

    Yesterday was my 2nd NSD of the month 🎈

    Today I got a takeaway (too tired to cook and not much to cook anyway). Tomorrow and Wednesday I already know I'll be spending.
    Maybe next month I'll keep track of two totals, one that doesn't include medicine or direct debits, and one that doesn't count medicine or direct debits or food. I don't *think* I spend on much apart from food, but I spend too much on food generally that's why I count it.

    Declaring a very early Spend Day Monday, so will remain on 8/20 - Decided to do a stock shop to last the rest of the month as I'm going shopping for my neighbour tomorrow anyway. The car only has to go out once and to the same SM to shop, so even better ;)
    Wishing everyone a Mysterious NSD Monday!  :oB):D<3
