May 25th Weekly SH*T List

May 25th, 2023
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 very effective. This list is usually posted late Wednesday evening (MST) since there is only one more time zone west of me and most of the world is on Thursday by now. It may be later if there is something going on in my life.

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. Wendy has also spelled the acronym of any challenges in full for further clarity.

While the Weekly SH*T list only lists 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!

No Mow May returns!! Mags @marlboromaam tells us to do the pollinators and other wildlife a favor and not mow until June. We can shoot the weeds, wild grasses, wildflowers and pollinators instead.

Thank you, Annie @annied for continuing on with the Word of the Month! This challenge is a great place for those who occasionally lose their mojo and need ideas or inspiration. It is also a great challenge for those who want to go that extra nine yards to do a full month of words.

@farmreporter Thank you so much!
May 31st, 2023
what is the 365 monthly theme for June? it often doesn't get posted until well after the month starts @farmreporter
May 31st, 2023
@koalagardens
I try to post the monthly themes as soon as they are posted. Ross has not put up June's theme yet so ... I can't post it until he does.
You are a full day ahead of many of us so it must be quite frustrating!
I will be updating this week's Weekly SH*T list tonight (which is still Wednesday here but into Thursday for you) so hopefully Ross will have the new theme up by then.
May 31st, 2023
that's ok - I'm actually making note of them this year so that next year I'll be on the ball! Just wondered if you remembered lol message from the future ... ;)
June 1st, 2023
@koalagardens
Ross does not necessarily have the same themes for every month every year. They do change quite a bit so I am not sure whether keeping a list will be helpful. But, who knows, he may start repeating them!!
June 1st, 2023
@farmreporter oh! glad you told me that! another reason we really need to know in advance
I guess tho I mostly follow the themes others do like FoR rainbow etc
so probably best I just put the 30 days wild in my list
June 8th, 2023
@koalagardens
Ross still has not posted a theme for June yet so there may not be one this month.
