Hey guys,

Remember that the challenge closes tomorrow night, January 17th at 11:59!

Here's the current situation: I'm up north with the ice and snowstorms. We lost power yesterday and, if we're lucky, will have it back by tomorrow night. Some news is saying that by Friday we'll have power, but I'm hoping it won't take that long.

Anyway, that means I don't have easy access to the internet. If I get power back by tomorrow night (Jan. 17), I'll make an announcement and close the challenge on time, at midnight. If I don't make an announcement by then, I'll accept any PMs up until I get the power back on. THEN I'll make an announcement to close the challenge, and start posting everyone's responses. If there are any outstanding questions, I'll address those when I get back.

Does that make sense? So it's in your best interest to get your materials in by Wednesday at 11:59, but you may have an extra day to do so.

Good luck, stay warm!

Katie

P.S. Usually I reply to all of the PMs I've received, to confirm I've received your entry. I've got 3 unopened PMs right now, so if you sent something yesterday/today I haven't seen it yet but it's in my box!

Katie;
I hope power's restored sooner than expected for you and your neighbors.

Bundle up,
Rick

You are free to remove my entry. I've been reduced to nothing. Personal trouble has hit me so hard that I wouldn't care to go on living if I didn't have children who I love with all my heart.

Goodbye,
Rick

Hey Katie,
Hope your power's restored soon. It's not the season to be without it. *sends some warm hugs and cuddles your way*
Take care,
Tessa

Ha! That was my wishful thinking with all the snow around here -- Freudian slip, sorry!
