It looks like they're doing all the 2023 posts, getting all the mods on board and posting all at once. I will be overwhelmed with lists. 😩📚📚

😂😂
I'll keep a List of Lists and go back for updates
The mods are just making sure all planned challenges are set up correctly. The threads will open up soon.
Sorry everyone--I tried to set up some last year, but forgot to connect them to the "challenge" thread. I wanted to make sure they all were linked properly, since I haven't done all of them before. I will make sure they're unlocked and moved up!!!
