I'm glad you guys like spooky season too lol

I finished the 2021 category and have 5 left for the other categories. Then just the spell outs

Down to needing to fill 2 prompts and the spell outs

That pretty great, Brittany!

I still have 7 prompts and 10 letters left to fill. Although I have completed one full category.

Woo! Also doing well Lili!

I've filled 26 of the prompts. Not sure how many, if any, more I'll fill this year.

That's still pretty good Gord!

I still have 12 letters/prompts to fill. I also don't know how many of those I'll get to. I've been taking it pretty easy with reading these days since I've already completed my GR reading challenge lol

That is pretty great Gord. You too Lili!

Still stuck with the 2 prompts. Just didnt read anything scary or orange!

I managed to fill one more prompt.

I still have quite a few prompts to go. Not too worried about it though lol

I've filled all the letters and prompts except letter Z 🤣

That pesky letter z lol
