I haven't updated for some time because a friend of my had to undergo an operation and I spent a lot of time in the hospital. Nothing serious and she is home again and doing fine but I just wanted to be there for her. Having said that I have updated and done some shuflling around and I have now also finished tasks 4, 8, 18, 21 and 24. So my new total is 22 tasks finished.

Yeah I wonder too :)
Anyway I am going to admit defeat. I have to update again but then I still have to read 7 books and some of them I have ordered but haven't been delivered yet so I can't read them even if I wanted to. So you win Lauren. Congrats!
