More clarifications

Month things are going to start in August and go with calendar months.
Proof will be posted if possible or reasonable.
The books have to be chapter books that I haven't read before (no Cat in the Hat) but I can count books I started prior to the challenge as long as I finish them after today. Ebooks are fine too.

Also: if anyone wants to help with things (which is as easy as coming to a tea party or gingerbread decorating or book lending) you would be most welcome

Rules:

• I am the ultimate judge of whether or not I have completed a task
• If I think of an exception I forgot to note while making the list it can be added on as long as I would have noted it if I had remembered
• Should disaster befall me (such as job loss or serious injury) I am not required to hold true to my donation threat/incentive
• I do not have to complete #101 within the 1001 days if it requires donating more than $100 to charity
• If something on the list becomes impossible I can substitute another similar thing
• Failing to maintain a streak does not count as becoming impossible if it was my fault
