Do we know if Andrea is planning to post her greetings to those 3 teams or if someone else should do it for those points?

Thank you I've entered them into the UNO cards. I'm just assuming everyone is going to keep track of their own stuff in the private ss? I'm thinking once an "egg" is completed we can double check it and then move it to the main ss...does that sound good?Is there a time frame on the greetings?

HAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh that is a GREAT gif!!! And sooooo true!!
The remaining UNO cards are:0 - 1
2 - 1
4 - 2
5 - 2
6 - 2
7 - 5
8 - 1
R - 2
W - 8
I think we should just focus on our mini tasks and fill in the UNO where it works bcz we have a healthy selection to juggle the UNO cards...even all the 7's and 2 Reverse's.
Also as far as the color cards...I will be finishing the 9 Green today and then I will start the 6 Red.

I wasn't sure if there was a timeline but since it was supposed to be an Easter greeting, I didn't know if that would be weird to do after today?
Very true....do you want to do it or should I?
Got a pm from Andrea saying she was struggling with having time to do the greetings and would appreciate some help=) I can do them if one of you haven't already!
Thanks Silje! You're awesome! I should have checked back earlier but got sidetracked with work.Done

Mini: "K" for PYSANKA Spell-Out
Is the greeting task the only task with different points? The rest have 10 per task?
I finished
for Green 9 & the mini "T" in KITE.
Should we perhaps write somewhere which other tasks our books might work for as well? That way we can try to rearrange at the end for more points if we don't manage to finish all=)
Silje wrote: "Should we perhaps write somewhere which other tasks our books might work for as well? That way we can try to rearrange at the end for more points if we don't manage to finish all=)"I think that would make sense! Maybe in the next column we can add a notes section or something?
I am reading a book for "C" spell out and the mc is a 15-year old girl. I was bummed it wouldn't work for the under-15 MC. :(
I think that's a good idea because most of the ones I have would work for a couple other tasks.
I was going to delete the "egg" from the private ss once it was completed and moved to the main one but I won't if we are going to do notes in another column.
The book I just started Ghost In The Kitchen has a MC that is 12 but it also has pots & pans on the cover. I had it listed under pots & pans but noted the other task in the next column.

I finished Ben the Dragonborn for an UNO 4 and mini task "characters go swimming". I was hoping it might also work for MC under 15 but it didn't. It talked about being in grade nine but didn't give any actual ages. I've been reading some not-normal-for-me books for a different challenge and I'm ready to get back to "my" style *sigh* I only have 4 or 5 left and I tried to pick pretty short ones.
Still working on my two books, will have one finished tomorrow I think and the audio one on Friday probably=)
Good deal! I should have the last color card finished today or tomorrow.
