LaurLa’s Comments (group member since Nov 30, 2016)

LaurLa’s comments from the Pick-a-Shelf group.

I'm a little late with my planning, but if you could check my plan for Janaury, I'll feel better and like I actually know what I'm doing...

A couple of questions...
For "b", if I don't read it in January, I have until the end of December to actually read it? And if it happens to match a category or shelf in Feb, I can still use it for Feb as long as I haven't read it yet and it's not for the same category? And if that's so, I can keep using it as a match until such time as I actually read it (and don't use it for the same categories or shelves)?
