Believe it or not - but the Weekly SH*T List must have gone on long enough to have had one other August 6th so I had to add the year to this one!
Liz Milne @spanishliz has given us a quote that is so true and a good reminder of how even the least of us can make a difference to those we meet. Thank you for entering the quote challenge once again, Liz!
NOW FOR THE MAIN EVENT - Can Always Be Found in General
Welcome to the Weekly SH*T List, your handy-dandy go-to list to keep current on all things challenging. The name is the acronym of the words 'So Happy It's Thursday', (SH*T). Just as everyone understands that TGIF stands for 'Thank Goodness It's Friday', Thursday's acronym is not quite as polite but as effective.
For those who are not sure what the challenges listed below are all about, just click on the link and it will bring you right to the original post that has all the rules and information needed to enter. The SH*T list only gives the ending date of the current challenges; please go through the discussion board to find challenges to be voted on. Voting can be just as important as participation and is generally the most fun and exciting part of the challenges. Don’t forget to click the link to check out the details of any challenges you are considering in case I may have messed up the dates or such.
There is also a posting on how to set up a new challenge under Tips and Tricks for those of you who win a challenge for the first time. Now there is no reason not to enter all these great challenges! How to Host a Challenge
ENDING THIS WEEK
The Weekly SH*T List Quote Challenge is an ongoing weekly challenge so it begins and ends each and every week where you can have your photo featured on the Weekly SH*T List. So, feel free to enter occasionally or as often as you can! Quote - Round 65

We are sending a huge 'Thank you' to Annie @annied for continuing on with the Word of the Month.

It is also a great challenge for those who want to go that extra nine yards to do a full month of words.
Annie has given us some great hints to combine the August words with Abstract August so that we can tag them for both ... a double hit is always a pleasure! August Words of the Month
