    Harry Potter Workout Game!

    There will be a novice version and an expert version. You can pick what fits you best at the time. They will have the same things to look for, but one will have more difficult exercises to do.

    You can split it up and watch a little at a time during the week, watch it all at once and make tally marks (then split those exercises up during the week), or watch it AND do the exercises all at once. Whatever works for you. You could also read the book and look for the same things if that's more convenient for you.

    Beginner: https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/309920_616472703393_179201885_32492010_1657789229_n.jpg 309920_616472703393_179201885_32492010_1657789229_n.jpg

    Advanced: https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/405091_616472683433_179201885_32492009_1020734573_n.jpg 405091_616472683433_179201885_32492009_1020734573_n.jpg

    [If you need them, here are the links to the advanced exercises:]

    Yes, this one is for the Sorcerer's Stone. Eventually I'll have one for each movie to rotate. Have fun!

    gillyweed! :D


    A bit of a more difficult trivia:

    What broom did Draco Malfoy have in the Philosopher's Stone?
    Nimbus 2000, Cleansweep 11 or Comet 260?

    Comet 260 I think…

    He was mad at Harry getting the Nimbus 2000.

    First day of spring and it snowed all night and this morning, it is now a mixture of rain and snow and white out…I want sun!!

    I am staying in and going on treadmill...

    I actually love the four seasons just more than ready for the last one to be over!! I have lived in areas where it is so hot in the summer and doesn't cool down, even on a warm summer day the nights always get a bit of coolness.

    And its fun having a white christmas…I am just a big whiner today! lol

    Need help tracking your progress each week?

    What I do is use the Sticky Note thing on my computer. I write down each day and track everything I do to earn points. 1 sticky note for the week, Then, when you weigh in you will not have to go back and count your SPEW (posts) or tally up all the points you earned for the week. Doing each day at a time will save you a lot of time and help keep your points more accurate.

    Harry Potter Trivia-

    In their 1st year, Harry, Ron, and Hermione had to play a game of wizards chess with themselves as the pieces. Which piece did hermione play?

    I don't consider myself HOH. I am just making sure everything is taken care of until she comes back.

    I haven't heard from her, but we're trying to keep things moving while we wait for her life to settle down. I'm keeping an eye over things, too :)

    Hi again, Slytherin!

    We're missing results back through February Week 4. I know MacSkillz has the info, but she hasn't gotten back to me in over a week now. FYI, If I don't hear back from her this coming week, I'm going to have to name someone to be acting Head of House and Deputy to keep things moving.

    In the mean time while we wait, can you please do me a favor and find all of your own personal posted numbers from the last week of February (weight only, in the very first column) and each week of March (all your numbers) and post them in the spreadsheet? It would be a huge help to me. If you don't do it, your first two weeks of March won't be counted, just so you know what's at stake.

    In case you missed it, the spreadsheet is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ApRsSrLxwLMEdGw2SldKbUE3Z0RFTXpfZ1pIZXVUQkE#gid=3

    The dates for February Week 4 are 2/24-2/26.
    March Week 1 is 3/2-3/5.
    March Week 2 is 3/9-3/12.
    March Week 3 is 3/16-3/19.

    March Week 4 will be the weigh in this coming weekend, 3/23-3/26. Don't post those til after Friday.

    Thanks guys!
