35559 Ashley, you did an AMAZING job of being captain! Thanks for staying on top of it all for us!!! I know you had my back and I appreciate it!

Thanks team for being such a great one to work with. :) I really liked this challenge, as I'm sure most or all of you did too.

35559 Thank you, everyone.

NOTE: ALL 5 books I currently have planned fit one of the RELAX mini tasks so I ahead and placed them; however, please feel free to remove mine from a task if you finish a specific task before I do.

35559 Hey, team, I got some blessed news yesterday. My granddaughter whose husband is in the marines and (poor guy) stationed in Hawaii texted to tell me they are having a baby!!!

OK, thank you. :)

35559 Hey, Ashley, I don't think it matters but I just realized that I put the wrong date on my last book I read today, In the Likely Event. I finished it today, the 23rd but I put the 22nd. I did finish it prior to the time the round ended and posted it on time though. Just thought I'd let you know in case it matters.

35559 It's OK, Ashley, obviously we have all done such things. I'll look into it and post it if I decide it's one I can get and read.

35559 According to the countdown clock we have approximately 26 hours left to read/post our books. Can we start immediately after that time if we read a book but wait to finish it until that hour is passed?

And even though we can start the new mini today, we must wait to finish those books until the above given time, right?
Nov 21, 2024 11:27AM

35559 No worries. I'd also forgotten to put a read date for another book, but I blame it on my husband again. lol Although, to be honest, this time it was my own fault.
Nov 21, 2024 08:53AM

35559 Oh, I forgot to add the sentence. Thanks, I’ll do that shortly.
Nov 21, 2024 08:52AM

35559 I definitely finished it after. I kept watching to see when he posted it and I finished it then.
