WHAT I’M DOING TO BE CREATIVE WITH MY TIME

Greetings,

With a lot of time on my hands while social distancing, I decided to think “outside of the box.” And that’s just what I did. I got out a 1,000 piece puzzle that someone gave me years ago and dumped all the pieces outside of the box and on to the dining room table.

This may take me weeks to complete. Yet I find this calming and a nice break from the electronics and the news.

Anyone else enjoy puzzles and games?

-MZ ❤️

I’ve just unearthed a crossword puzzle book, been gathering dust on the coffee table shelf - love it! 👍

I've been putting 3 puzzles a week together...I purchased quite a few from Walmart my last time there...was costly, but you can't put a price tag on sanity... it's been a blessing...very calming...😊...best wishes and prayers to all...❤

I love puzzles and it'll be good for me to do when the weather turns, at the moment I'm keeping myself occupied out walking in the countryside which is on my doorstep.

Enjoy :)

Are they. difficult , where do you get them?

Glad you like that! If you'd like to get together for Scrabble in a park, masked and all that---let me know. Maybe we can exchange e-mail addresses here, "privately" if so! :--)

That’s a sweet idea. However my Scrabble skills are way subpar. Perhaps chat in the park?
