Not sure where I should post this... I'm sure some of you remember Illuminata's Fun Challenges in the past... Was really hoping to find those & do them sometime, but I could not find them on the old website. Did anyone keep a copy of them by any chance & if so can you post them? Or, if anyone is in contact with Illuminata...that would be great if she has a copy of those and could give them to keep as a fun challenge whenever anyone wants to try them. Thank you. (Mods. feel free to move this to another area if not in right place...Thanx. CD

Cando, her challenges were based on getting ready for Christmas, so if you look at the December posts for 2007 and 2006, you should be able to find them.

I had this one bookmarked: Lumy's December 2006 Fun Challenges: squalorsurvivors.com/community/forums/64478/ShowPost.aspxNote that although she called them "countdown to Christmas" challenges ... they could be done at any time of year, for any reason. She was preparing for Christmas and wanted some challenges to do to get herself going. But the actual challenges have nothing to do with Christmas itself. She was merely preparing for family to visit. Enjoy.

Wow, SweetLioness!!! I was hoping that you would either have it or could steer me in the right direction. I just thought those challenges sounded like soo much fun & yet never did them all...just a couple here & there. I had planned to go back & do them some time. Thank you,again. I just put it in a Word Document. CD

Those challenges from Illuminata were pivotal in getting my family to work with me in a fun way, and in winning over squalor! I hope that we will see Illuminata here at the new board!

hi everyone; Lioness, you saved the day again! thanks lioness for saving the link to illumanata's fun challenge. I keep getting an error message when I click on the link though... do I need to go directly to the SS site and read the archives? Thanks for any help you can give to direct me. I have plenty of challenges, what I need to do is to make them FUN!

hi everyone; Lioness, you saved the day again! thanks lioness for saving the link to illumanata's fun challenge. I keep getting an error message when I click on the link though... do I need to go directly to the SS site and read the archives? Thanks for any help you can give to direct me. I have plenty of challenges, what I need to do is to make them FUN! Hi creative chaos. The challenges were on the old Squalor Survivors board (The one that existed from 2005 through June 2008). That board was deleted June 30, 2008. I posted the link to "illuminata's fun challenges" here in May 2008, so that people could go to the other board and read it before it was deleted ... as the owner of the other board had announced the impending deletion of that board .... and had given us 6 weeks notice so that we could read over any old posts we wanted to read. Sorry but that board is gone now -- and with it was illuminata's post. CanDo and others may have read the "fun challenges" and copied it for their own personal use, but nobody can repost it here without illuminata's permission. Until Illuminata contacts someone and says it's okay, we cannot repost her wisdom. I don't believe she's joined SOS. If she (or anyone else) ever tries to find the old board, she will (hopefully) read the message that is posted at the "gateway" to the old board, which directs people here. -- Lioness EDITED TO ADD ... As noted in the following posts, Glowworm did start up a new set of challenges.
The new thirty fun challenges are listed here:takeonestepatatime.proboards80.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=general&thread=1710[/size]- -

I did thoroughly enjoy those challenges.
I understand that we can't copy and paste her challenges from the old board, but would we be able to continue our own challenge along the same idea on this board? Like a summer challenge?
For those who didn't see this on the old board, Illuminata picked a word for the day, and challenged the rest of us to find something to desqualor or clean that was related to that word. For example, if the word was "cold" you could clean out old food in your refrigerator (which is cold inside) or pick up tissues off the floor from the cold you had last week, or pick up your coat (which you wore because it was cold outside that day) and hang it in the closet.

glowworm, absolutely, if you want to start your own challenges inspired by lumy's challenges, please do. That's completely acceptable.
