Hershey’s Moments – MasterPieces – 1000 pieces

I’m having a great time with this puzzle, it’s exactly what I need at exactly the right time. I’m working on the more difficult sections first – like all the large Hershey’s bars and darker areas. When sorting it I could tell it would be harder than it looks, and so I decided to get the more challenging stuff out of the way early. Now when it’s closer to being completed the sections that are brighter and more entertaining will be what’s left. My strategy may change the further into it I go, but that’s where I am for now.

Life is unbelievably stressful right now, and even if it wasn’t, my brain seems to think anxiety is always the way to go – even when things are calmer. Sometimes I just need to go and sit in front of my puzzle board and get away from almost everything; I put on my headphones, turn the music WAY up and only think about shapes, colors, text, and fitting pieces together.

If I didn’t have puzzles I fear life would be much darker for me. Thank God for puzzles!
