OK, perfect!

I feel like the book I'm reading should have people waking up early but so far it hasn't and I'm about halfway done!

Diane | 957 comments I started reading one about a Manny, but so far there is no mention of him getting up early. Just not part of the story, so carry on with your plan Janeylou!!

Task B 21 gets up early
.....A pillow over his head didn’t help much. If he’d known he’d entered the lair of an early riser he wouldn’t have stayed up until two


Sebastian glanced up, smiling when he noticed Henri. “I hope I didn’t wake you. I’m one of those annoying morning people. This is my favorite time of day.”

Right!! We are on track to have completely maxed out our points every month. That should count for something! :-P

We'll all just have to hope the cards randomizer is kinder to all of us next year, whatever teams we may end up on!

Book: Shipwrecks Shipwrecks by Akira Yoshimura
Author: Akira Yoshimura
Date: 4/28

Cards it fits:
2: Character first - Takichi
5: Character first - Isaku
6: Title - Shipwrecks

I'm not sure if we're still looking for it, but there is a section where Isaku's mother rises early:

(pg 104) "The next morning his mother got up at the Hour of the Ox (about 2:00 AM), made some millet dumplings, and wrapped them in seaweed along with some dried saury. At the Hour of the Tiger (about 4:00 AM) she put on her shoes, picked up a stout walking stick, and left the house."

B19..dancing or clubbing

Men and women alike were captivated by Ronan’s dancing and nothing could be heard except the driving beat of the music.

And with the final books entered.... we have finished for the month.

Which means ... we have finished the UNO challenge! We completely maxed out all of our possible points. (Right now our bonus points aren't showing up, but I am aware and checking with mods if it's OK to manually add them -- so those will be added in soon.)

The spreadsheets will finalize and close within the next few days, and then we'll have an idea of our official ranking.

I'm so proud of this team. You all have worked together so wonderfully and have truly been the best team.

Kaley (kaleyamo) | 1571 comments In case you haven't seen yet, the winners are posted here.

We landed somewhere in the middle -- but the difference between first and last place was only 380 points so it's really quite amazing how close everyone was this year!

Thank you again for being a marvelous team! I hope that for those of you who participate next year, you are blessed with far fewer Draw 2s in your hands than we were this year :-P
