January 2017. ,!!! Sharon is here and is being a tremendous help. I have more trouble walking, even with a walker, than before. Am also still on the oxygen, an additional pain to moving around, tangles of tubes, etc. Victoria is still with me, 3 hours on mtwth and 2 hours on Saturday. But I now need someone on Fridays and Sunday's. Victoria can't do those days, so a different helper is to be added for f-s-s. We talked to Jennifer about this but it hasn't started yet, the hours will go to 4 and the rate will go down.

Jigsaw Puzzles - 2
Have worked almost all of the impressionist paintings. Many are difficult to choose pieces by color, so I rely on shape. Have been working them at 325 or 356 pieces and that takes hours. Addictive.
But it really shows that in paintings, the color ? White is not white at all. It is gray, purple, yellow, blue, etc. some paintings do have white in the sky though.

Jigsaw Puzzles
You know that group of puzzles I ordered, the one of impressionist paintings?
You'd asked me how many were in the group and we guessed about ten? Well that was wrong. There were 43 in the group!
I'd been doing them at 225 or 250- ish, took about 2 hours or a bit more. Then I picked a hard one, mostly sky .... And set it at 400 pieces. It has taken days and days, but just a few minutes at a time. If I got one or two in, I was happy. Just finished it and it tells me it took 6 hours 43 minutes.
Actually it helped a lot when I was trying to tune out the beeper.
The other night, I dreamed I was doing jigsaw puzzles. Click. Click. Click. Then realized I was in bed but I had come apart. Had to reach for my leg and put it back on. Click. Then the other leg. Click. Then my arm. Click. Click. I was the puzzle. (In the dream of course.). It's one of the silliest dreams I ever had.
