It's time for puzzle update. You had to know it was coming.
I just finished one I got from Patsy and Brian.... a panoramic image of the waterfront in Kennebunkport, Maine. I started it knowing it would fill in the gap before I moved on to my Christmas puzzles...and the timing worked out well. It was a fun one!
Before I took it apart.....I sorted the pieces for the next one into my album boxes. I like that part too and I stretch it out for days. This one is a 1000 pieces of Christmas fun and I'm looking forward to the challenge.
It seems mostly what I hope for these days is a better world. A world where we respect our differences and celebrate our diversity. A world where there is actual justice...and all people are treated fairly and with kindness and respect. Mostly....I hope our country can survive this nightmare we are living through.
But I think it's also OK to hope for quiet evenings with a new puzzle....and a little time in the studio. It's OK to hope for good weather when I have errands to do....and not too long of a line at the post office when I mail a few Christmas packages. It's OK to hope for a Christmas light tour and quality time with friends and family. It's OK to hope for little things.....even silly things that might bring a bit of joy.
I love Kennebunkport and I love that puzzle. It does look like a fun one! As for hope, it's so important to hang on to it right now. Like you, I wish for a better world where diversity, kindness, justice and decency prevail, MaryAnn. I just pray that we can get through these very troublesome times. But what a sweet way to end your post with the lovely visitors on your puzzle table. So adorable!!
ReplyDeleteIt was a fun one! The sweet little visitors on my puzzle table ground me and help me escape the troubled world for a bit when I sit there.
