I’m wallowing, I’ve been wallowing for more than a week now and have absolutely no ambition, energy, physical strength, or anything else I need to get out of bed and work on a puzzle.

In my head I want to puzzle, but then I’m lacking whatever else is needed to actually get up and do it. There’s a 500 piece puzzle that has been on the board for about a week now, and I just can’t seem to get my butt in there and finish the damn thing. It’s very pretty, a bit challenging, and has been fun so far – but the inspiration seems to have flown away from the Hummingbird Garden.

All nine hummingbirds are assembled, as are the flowers in both the upper and lower right corners. It’s more than halfway complete, putting it away now is just stupid. Besides, who says if I take this one down and start another that there’d be any more inspiration?  Sigh.

Ah well, today is Wednesday. Hump day. Maybe I’ll finally get over the hump and finish this one. Perhaps all I needed was to moan and complain about it to my PADS posse and get all that whining out of my system; here’s hoping!

I have no motivation at all this week. I’m working on a 500 piece Sunsout puzzle with lots of hummingbirds and flowers in the puzzle room, but to be honest it’s too much effort to get out of bed and take a picture of it. 😐

It’s not really the fault of the image, I’m just having a bad month so far. Mom found a Titantic puzzle that I was planning to have ready for April 15 (the day it sank), but I just couldn’t find the gumption to get it started. It’s an interesting image that I will eventually assemble, it just isn’t going to happen right now.

So what are you puzzling at the moment; something wonderfully bright and interesting, something difficult and frustrating? What’s on your board right now?

I’m working on this fun collage this weekend! It’s slow going as sitting at the puzzle board is difficult for me at the moment; but I’m enjoying whatever time I can get, and every piece that fits with another makes me happy. 🙂

I may work on a smaller puzzle on the white board in bed, the White Mountain puzzle is too large to fit the white board. I might start working on a 300 or 500 piece to keep me occupied in my room. I’m completely addicted, but it doesn’t upset me the least little bit; puzzling keeps my brain from turning to mush!

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. ❤
