Bad day for me after my 3 NSDs in a row. Had to spend on postage, DS bus fare, window cleaner, bread and milk. I already know I'll be spending tomorrow too on fish for tea and going out. Never mind, there's always Friday to aim for.Spend less now, work less later.0

I decided against using my M&S vouchers for the food shopping, I think I'll save them for when I'm really brassic, ditto my Te$co points - maybe the end of this month, lol. So today has been a spend day, the grand sum of £11.45 on food and household shopping. I wandered around the supermarket with the calculator function on my phone checking how much I was spending and am quite pleased with my haul, but did put a few things back as on reflection, they were wants rather than needs.
Hopefully I shouldn't now spend until the weekend when OH and I are going out.0 -
Thanks for all your posts re work - your support really means a lot!
Today I've decided to start at my proper time of 9am and I will be leaving at 5 on the dot. I have managed to have a leisurely breakfast,
made my packed lunch and done a bit of tidying up.
I have a hospital appt today too - so I'll be nipping out @ 10.30 and I'll just take my own sweet time getting back to the office;)
:T:TGood for you Jinty ...... Glad your Dad & the family enjoyed the celebrations:)
I will add that my 1st day back has been particularly bad too .... won't go into details but suffice to say, I will not be volunteering when any extra favours are needed this year:(.
A very unexpected No 3 for me to day:) which is extremely unusual on my 1/2 day .... it was taken up by a rather long road trip (in horrible wet & windy conditions up the M9 - the amount of trees that must's blown over yesterday was unbelieveable) to see a dog ....... he was lovely but sadly not the one for me - so I'm back home alone again:(. There has to be one out there for me somewhere .... I'll keep looking so please keep your fingers crossed we find each other soon.:)Grocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)
2016 Sell: £125/£250

Hello all!
Today wasn't planned as a NSD as I'd planned to buy some birthday pressies today. However, as B00ts didn't have the stuff my mum wanted and I couldn't find any good deals on male smellies, I bought nothing
So I can claim 4 NSDs :T0 -
NSD3 for me please.
It would have been 4, but I needed to buy food yesterday.0 -
Thanks to an enforced day in the house today I am declaring NSD #4 and I hit my target of 4 in a row :T
