January 31st Weekly SH*T List

January 31st, 2019
The Weekly So Happy It’s Thursday (SH*T) is back to the original format without the photo until I figure out how to insert a photo without the links going wonky. I have not given up on having the quote challenge winner gracing this feature but will put it on hold until I get it figured out. After all, the 365 Project focuses on photos so this handy feature should also have a photo gracing the top.

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 early Thursday morning (EST), but will occasionally get posted 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. I have 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.

I also find that there are a ton of interesting topics to be found on the discussion board that I do not mention in the SH*T list such as Flash Back Fridays and opportunities to post your favourite Fav’s and other photos. Please go back a couple of pages through the Discussion board to find these gems that might get buried quickly when there is a lot of activity on the Discussion board.

Don’t forget to hit the link to check out the details of any challenges you are considering in case I may have messed up the dates or such.

@farmreporter Thank you Wendy. I always look forward to Thursdays because of these. :)

@adi314
There are certainly a lot of brand new ones this week. Lots of voting done and everyone fairly efficient at getting the new ones up again!
January 31st, 2019
@farmreporter - what's with the "mad hatters' frog prince?" how did that get in there? :-D
January 31st, 2019
Thank for your superrrrrr dedication on this so very helpfull list! 👍👍
January 31st, 2019
You do such a great job in compiling all this information week after week!

@summerfield
Just follow the link - was not sure what to do with it until I read the words (and quote)
"And join us for a fun fairytale spoof starting tomorrow: The Frog Prince Continued by Jon Scieszka."
Sooo ... I posted it! Hope that is okay.
I can take it down if it is not okay.

@stimuloog @olivetreeann
You are both most welcome. I really do find it useful as well. I would love to see it posted in a more conspicuous place like maybe on the weekly blog so it could be accessed easier.
February 1st, 2019
@farmreporter @scrivna
I think this would be a good idea!
February 1st, 2019
@farmreporter - but that link is from 2014! i was one of the last additions to MH and we disbanded, for lack of a better word, sometime in 2015. it will only confuse people so perhaps just take it off. that's hilarious!
February 1st, 2019
@summerfield
That is so weird - I did not go looking for that yet it was in the same thread as the rest! I did not check the date. So good you are here to keep me honest! Thank you.
Must be one of those magic monkeys that appear every once in a while!
February 1st, 2019
@farmreporter thanks Wendy, I'm working on some improvements for these, I appreciate your efforts with this though!
February 1st, 2019
Ummm
Might be because is Friday
But I’m still a little lost 🤔
What is shit about?
There are many links above?! Can you explain in one sentence please

@brigette
SH*T is the acronym for So Happy It's Thursday - and I compile all current challenges on Thursday..
It just makes it easier for members to see what is happening on 365 in one handy list rather than scroll through pages in the Discussion Board.
Click on the link and the rules for that challenge come up.
February 1st, 2019
@Scrivna
You can see how having a photo on top of this would be so much better (365 is a photo site, after all!)
The only thing is that the links do not work when we add a photo. Any idea why?

@farmreporter
Oh! Ok
