I love this thread! There are many things I love about this group but I’d like to mention two of the most important.

1. I like that it is only one-month long. I’ve participated in 52 week, six month, and 3 month threads in the past. All of them seem to peter out and become burdensome before their life reaches an end. One month is short and sweet. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. Longer and bigger threads are intimidating and not attainable for many. I hope we renew this one month challenge/thread for all of 2018.

2. Our companion spreadsheet that Nikki has created is super. I really dislike having to sift through everyone’s personal data to get to the good stuff. I enjoy reading “what’s working or what’s not” from our group but I don’t like to weed through a blow by blow account of water under the bridge data from weeks gone by on every post. Nikki’s spreadsheet gives us the opportunity to post and review our accomplishments without cluttering up the good stuff.

I would like to personally thank chinatowninchina and nikkijrm for setting up and maintaining our monthly forum. You are both rock stars and epitomize the supportive community that is MFP is.
