  1. Good luck with all of your challenges! I'm cutting back, as I haven't been doing well with challenges lately. Have fun!

    1. I have not been very successful with some of these challenges myself in the past few years which is probably why I keep doing them. There is also a Bingo challenge that looks quite interesting, but I may have to leave until next year. My day job is way too demanding and I have had to really cut back on blogging and reviewing to accommodate that job.
