HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY SCC FRINEDS!!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day back at ya!

Thanks, Ruth!

Hi everyone!

You will start to see a bit of reorganization here in the group. Moving some old stuff to the Archives Folder, setting up some new threads with the newer information, such as a new, and more current list of active challenges.

Also, in moving forward, I will not be breaking down challenges by partner groups, time frames, or anything like that. There will just be one thread where all active challenges will be listed according to the category they fall into...Scavenger Hunt, Spell Out, Combo, Misc/Themed. This makes it easier for me to maintain, and to update :)

Great idea!

Thank you, Ruth! It's been along time coming, I know. Lol

Maybe some new challenges???

Yes ma’am, Ruth! I have been working on those, so you will see a few new ones posting around July 1st ;)

For all who are celebrating today, have a happy and safe July 4th!

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to give a quick heads up. I will be on vacation from August 15th through August 22nd, and will not have computer access. I will have my phone with me, but very limited time to check in. I'll try to answer questions as quickly as possible, but I will not be able to edit any posts, set new links, etc while I'm away. I will take care of all that when I return on August 23rd :)

Thanks so much for understanding!!

Have a great time!!

We do alot of reading :)

Hi i just joined and im a kid so NO BAD WORDS

And also hello everyone

Hi, Ayda!

Good morning SCC! I wanted to pop in and let you all know what is going here. We do not have phone or internet service, so my communication is very limited at the moment. We hope to have all that cleared up by late Friday.

This of course will delay my posting of the September challenges.

Hope everything gets back to normal soon! Very frustrating!

Hi everyone! I'm back among the internet world...at least at work.

Thanks so much, Ruth! It has been a harrowing four days, but things are back up and running, so it's all good.

I'll start posting challenges over the next couple of days.

Thanks everyone, for your patience!

Hi, all I am doing fine and I hope all are too. Hows everyone reading going? My is going great so far.

Good morning!

That is great Tammie! My reading has really slowed down.

Just a small update on my MIA over the last several days. I've been sick since last Thursday evening, and spent most of my time in the bed, so I've not been well enough to check up here.

I'm feeling a bit better though, and hope to have everything caught up here shortly.

Thanks so much for your patience!!

Take care of yourself! Don't overdo...we will be here when you are well!

Thank you, Ruth!

Happy Thanksgiving to those of you celebrating! I probably will not have the opportunity to check in tomorrow at all, but will be back online Friday morning, bright and early...probably around 9:30 am my time (CST).

Stay safe, eat lots of wonderful food, and hug your loved ones!!

Hope your day was good!

It was wonderful, Ruth, thank you! Exhausting but fun :)

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Merry Christmas.....Great holiday here.....Hope yours was too!

It was, Ruth! Thank you!! I'm glad you hear you had a great one as well!!

Happy New Year, everyone!!!

Happy New Year, jingles! Hope it is a good one for all of us!

I second that, Ruth! We all need a fantastic reading year to get us through all these challenges :)

Hi everyone - just wanted to give you a heads up.

I will be offline the next couple of days...until sometime Friday, possibly even Saturday morning, due to work.

Just wanted to let you know. If I have the opportunity and can check in on my phone, I will do so...though I did drop it last night and it's acting funny, so I'm not sure how well that will work.

Thank you for understanding!

No problem.....You have to do what you have to do! See you when you return!

I have a question i am doing audiobooks for a while i can not understand how to update my page number on the reading shelf if i don,t know what page i am on Help me i am listing to misborn book 1

Tammie, I don't know of a way to do that. I don't think there is a specific formula or reference too that converts your time listening to the number of pages that equates to.

I listen to alot of audio books and even at the end of the year when looking back through how many pages I've read, it's never accurate because the audio books do not have corresponding page numbers.

The only way to track that and to keep track on your currently reading shelf is to use a print book or ebook format. At least that's the only way I know of.

Someone else may have a better solution.

thank you jingles

I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help. I know it's frustrating with the audio books.

I'm hoping someone else will have a better solution for us :)
