Congratulations Katrisa. Some of those titles look interesting!!

I think I reported my request wrong. I read summaries and thought we needed to do that here but now it makes sense that you meant in our thread. I’ll edit mine later when I’m not on my phone.

You don't need to edit it, Marnie. I rather enjoyed the summaries. They aren't necessary in this thread, but if people want to do that. It's fine.

I’ll leave it then, Janice. Overthinking for the win AGAIN lol.

congrats Katrisa

My son accuses me over overthinking all the time. And when I suggest he's doing the same, he gets all insulted. LOL!

Thanks! And I love the badge Janice!

I liked your little summaries too, Marnie. It's nice to get a bit of info beyond the title.

Congratulations Marnie and Katrisa on winning your first badge. The summaries are great Marnie.
