Sorry guys I think I'm out - This week has been really hard and I am just not up to doing this challenge at the moment. Hope I haven't let anyone down, I will still be here to support the rest of you and I am sending my best wishes for great success for all of you. I will let you know if things get better. And hopefully after my first fill in November I will be on the losing side too!! Hugs to everyone!

Greetings Everyone! :)

Posting the stats for the Week~

We have 12 people now.

I have removed people from the challenge that have not posted, and a few have left on their own. If you are having issues (Going out of town etc) Just email me or post early. I have been slack on the posting times as far as Mondays go because of the time changes...But Tuesday Morning when I log in to post stats if your not posted your out from now on. :cry

This is time consuming and I cant stay here all day waiting on people to post and it isn't fair for people to post mid week or even skip a week of posting and come back and post. Oh and please don't edit your posts it confuses me numbers! :ogre

I dont want people to think I'm being a B*t*h but I do want this to be completely fair to everyone~

Thanks,

Nana~
