[Mandiann]

I am stuck on the same one, Lynn.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

That was a TOUGH one!! Great job Lynn! 9 is still a lot of books to make fit tough requirements :)

[Mandiann]

I completed 9/10 (didn't get fishing) but since I finished one today and the shelf ended on 7/30 it won't count it!! LOL.

[Vicki]

But it says you have till July 31.

[Mandiann]

Yes but the shelf only says until July 30th.

[Vicki]

That's weird.

[Mandiann]

Oh well, it really doesn't matter that much.

[Vicki]

Yeah, I know but I hate not being able to finish or have it show that I finished. Lol

[Mandiann]

Yeah me too.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

oh! Crazy shelf,

I corrected the date! :)

let me know if it still doesn't show right!

[Vicki]

You are a doll, Trisha! Thank you. That happened to me once before and it was frustrating. Hopefully Mandiann sees your message on time.
