35559 If this doesn't change things too much I would like to do this challenge but I would like to do it as a spell it out challenge. I would like to spell out the princess' names.

35559 I can't believe that this year is about gone either. I'm not going to start this challenge until Jan. 1 but is there anyway I can take longer than a year because I really want to do level 8 but I don't think I'll be able to finish it in a year. Thanks!

35559 I'm making a list of the challenges I want to do next year and this challenge sounded interesting. Do you know if the rules would be the same for next year?
Oct 04, 2013 08:43AM

35559 I'm going to finish my challenge in 2014 (Refer to post 103). I'm not signing up for any mini or yearly challenges this year. I've decided that I'm not going to feel pressured to read. I do have a lot of open ended challenges going on though.

35559 Thanks I feel better! I think I can finish it before the year is out though. The last couple of months have really been hectic. Hope I'll be back on schedule soon.
Mar 14, 2013 01:45PM

35559 Can someone tell me how to catch up. I was reading the months in order since I started in January but February and March have been a couple of busy months. The month of February I was spelling out Taurus and March I was spelling out emerald. I would love to just fill them out before the year is out. Monthly challenges always make me feel so rushed. Thanks in advance for help.
