OMIGOD I FEEL SO STUPID RIGHT NOW....

Now the stamp reference makes sense.

It's a tower... it has two turrets.... *dares to hope*

So true!

I saw no white hand of Saruman nor the red evil eye of Sauron

It looks like a progress bar of sorts.... (I hit the zoom at 150%)

Now that you mention it...

Cat wrote: "You guys gotta do SOME work in the guessing!"

Guessing? That's overrated.

As long as the words challenge and team are present, we'll join. You should know better by now.

That is exciting.

We're banned from moving around this week. Everybody stays put till Easter is done.

I had to cross the bridge, during rush hour, with 3 kitties and one 8 y.o., on a thursday, so we could blend enough not to get caught, before the travel ban was in place... that meant 1:30 minutes of being in a car instead of the usual 30.

But hey... now the kid is happy riding her scooter and playing outside on the big yard. And we have fresh air even in confinement. And more important, my step-dad won't be all alone during easter.

So. Since it's all up to me then.

Where is the big news?

I was promised good news in the newsletter! It's like wanting a HEA and getting a HFN

Meh.

This is weird... a whole 10 hours since the newsletter arrived... and NOT. A. SINGLE. QUESTION.

I feel cheated. My teasers always caused tsunamis....this time.... not a single ripple.

Well, at least that means the powers that be can get some work done.

No problem by me.

Spreadsheet fixing on a row is a bit of an ordeal.

Hey Sophie, sorry to be a bother but since they're April tasks, shouldn't be the April BOM?

Also, I'm pretty sure the spelling should be defenestrate not defenstrate

*giggles*

Yep... I'm turning into one of those people....

April tasks are up? Have I been that distracted lately?

*looks at calendar*

The 23 already?!

Oh dear! Oh dear!

I feel like the white rabbit right now!!!!

Oh I let out some evil giggles a lot.

No despair on my part. I was just keeping up with my promise to remind E I could be a really trouble maker if she tries to steal my partner in crime in future team challenges.

Hey mods! You might want to check the status spreadsheet. The leaderboard tabs need to be updated.

Btw, the personal spreadsheets also are not counting the books read. I fixed mine, is a simple formula, but just wanted to leave it out there.

Sophie"

Who shall conquer the world, the planners or the mood readers?

I vote the second one.... but I might be slightly biased.

Same here, Lisa.

I would love to do that BUT, I'm a mood reader... so... I wouldn't stick to the plan.
