me too. I always thought the day it ended would be the last day. Now I know it is the beginning of the day that ends it. Either way, there is no way I will pass up Annashu!

Sorry to confuse everyone! But midnight of the end of the day today would be the 23rd.

Is there anything I can do for the next challenge to avoid this confusion?

Maybe having it end at 11:59pm instead of midnight?

That is what I thought, at midnight was the first instance of the 23rd, so I figured finishing the 22nd would be 11:59 that night. It really isn't that big of a deal, and it also explains why a bunch of polls and such seem to be posted late and end early. :) Now that I know that is how you mean it, it clears up a lot.

I think that is a good idea! Thanks! That seems like it would be clearer.

Tami--It's so funny how we all looked at it differently. Whew. I'm glad you guys said something about it or else I would have no idea.

I'm glad I'm not the only one to be confused...I have been confused all week though so there really isn't an excuse.
Not to brag but yay me for winning.

Just wanted to let everyone know that Annashu, our winner, has graciously offered her task to the second place winner who was Jules as she has already picked a task for winning the School Year Challege! I'll be emailing her shortly to let her know and then I will post her task on the official task list!
