I’m sorting my next puzzle at the moment, but it’s going very slowly. I got about a total of 20 minutes of sleep last night and I feel like I’m running on about six and a half brain cells. 🤨
You can see that it’s another collage, and I’m excited to start putting it together – there are dogs everywhere, they’re all books about dogs!
I hope all my friends in the PADS Posse are having a great weekend, and that you all get plenty of “me time” to put a few puzzle pieces together. ❤
Happy Friday everyone! I had another day-long drive this week for a medical appointment, so I’m resting up from the journey and planning what puzzle to do next. I’ve got a couple of new puzzles to review, so it’s only a matter choosing between the two.
What are you working on this first weekend of Spring? Something warm and flowery?
I bought a few more “mystery” puzzles on eBay in the past week. They’re all vintage wooden puzzles, and all a mystery as we have no idea what the images will be. 😎
The first one to arrive (some of the pieces are shown above) is amazingly cut; and although it isn’t as sturdy as our municipal building puzzle, the intricate almost coral-like cuts are definitely fun to work with and the fit is even tighter than the big puzzle! Mom and I finished it yesterday – 3 missing pieces and a few broken tabs – but I truly wasn’t disappointed, we enjoyed it very much! I’ll be posting about it when it comes up in the rotation.
2 more are on their way. One is complete (according to the seller), and the other looks to be cut by the same person as the municipal building puzzle. We’re not sure if the second one is complete, but we are very excited about working with pieces like that again and seeing what both images turn out to be!
I know, I’m a crazy person. But I’m adorable and fun too, so it all works out. 😇
Whether she gave you life, friendship, love, support, or encouragement – there’s a woman, or probably many women in your life to whom you owe a debt of gratitude. Celebrate International Women’s Day by letting the women in your life know how much you appreciate them for being who they are, and for helping you become the person you are today. 💗
Women’s Day made me think of a fun puzzle I assembled last year, Women March! I loved the puzzle and it’s message of supporting women; and it’s manufactured by eeBoo, a company run by women. What could be better? They’ve got some new releases this year, and this one seems perfect for today, it’s on my wish list (once I assemble and donate a few of the puzzles in my enormous “to-do pile”) 😁
Goddesses and Warriors…
This puzzle illustrated by Ross MacDonald depicts goddesses, warriors, heroines, and deities from around the world and even comes with an informational poster. Those ladies look like they could take on anyone or anything – and it looks like great fun!
Happy Women’s Day!
My puzzle board is finally empty, and I’m once again able to work on bigger puzzles. There are several 1000 piece puzzles I’ve got in the to do pile that are larger than the average size and need my bigger board.
The board has been occupied by the Mystery Puzzle for a couple of months, and we were finally able to take it off and find a safe place to store it until we decide what we’re going to do with it. I’m looking forward to sitting at my big board again to puzzle!
Today I’m starting American Diner by White Mountain – bright colors and a great image by Steve Crisp – here’s hoping it’s going to be as entertaining as it looks!
