I did good yesterday. :D

I created a total of 11 icons and 6 sigtags. Those arts were for 2 Challenges that ended yesterday. :o) Lucky I was able to finish both because I felt pretty sick when I woke up. But it went better later so I could work on those. :o)

I'm passing the torch to [livejournal.com profile] skargasm. Good luck and have fun. <3

Hey there folks,
Sick dogs over the weekend and 2 weeks of no assistant at work makes Kaige slow and less than thorough with the Monday statistics. I wish I had more to give you, but ....

Big Buddy should be at 16% today. How are you all doing?

Our Drabble/Icon challenge has ended, but go back and check out all the prompts and make more things anyway!

Bingo has begun! Find a card and get inspired.

Flash challenge is once again inspired by real life "I'm not cleaning that up!" Do with it as you will, but do it to the tune of 100 words or a graphic!

Take a minute of your time and tell [livejournal.com profile] angelus2hot how much you loved the Drabble/icon challenge. Tell Dreamy how much you've been looking forward to Bingo. Tell [livejournal.com profile] simplyn2deep how wonderfully consistantly impressed you are with the WotD posts, and the keeping up with the Daily count challenge. Tell [livejournal.com profile] asphaltcowgrrl how much her unrivaled cheerleading means.

LET'S MAKE THIS WEEK EXCELLENT!!

Passing the torch to [livejournal.com profile] agdhani and wishing them the best!
