My favorite time to do these is at the end of the day when I am ready to put my feet up. I will take maybe 20 minutes to half an hour, depending on how tired I am. When the puzzle pieces refuse to show themselves to me, then I know it’s time to put it down.
I am a very visual person as you have probably guessed, and love the ones with animals and birds and bright, cheery colors. I also enjoy the scenic ones, and flowers of course.
I have put these puzzles together over the last few months and am sharing my favorites. I am about to clear a space on our dining room table to do a regular 1,000 piece.
How is your weather where you are? After hearing about the high temperatures in Europe, we are now following suit. It is going to be hot and humid. I will not be going out in it, if I can help it. I do have an eye appointment mid week, just to see how my eyes are doing with my new glasses. Quite well I will be able to tell her.
Thanks for dropping in and I hope your week ahead will be great.
Stay safe, stay cool.
Don’t forget to hydrate🥵
I love them, especially the ones with cats. It is to be 104 later this week!!!!
ReplyDelete’ve had severe thunderstorms and muggy, warm weather; it’s raining again right now, but the sun is supposed to come back out.
ReplyDeleteYour puzzles are lovely—I love doing them too!
Staying hydrated is important, and I have an MRI tomorrow!
Have a good appointment at the eye doctor tomorrow!
hugs Elke
These are lovely. I have a 1,000-piece puzzle to do and it's on a small table when I'm ready to commence it.
ReplyDeleteThe puzzles are pretty - but your blue jay is prettier!
ReplyDeleteI love them all. Each one is as pretty as the next.
ReplyDeleteSo far this year we've been comfortable with temps mostly in the 70s or low 80s. Looks like this coming week is going to be a scorcher though with temps mainly in the 90s.
It’s warming up here in Ottawa. It will get really hot in a couple of days.
ReplyDeleteI do NY Times puzzles in the evening, but these look like they would be really fun to do. I like these choices a lot.
ReplyDeleteMy “it’s time for bed” activity is to play two games on my iPad, Solitaire and Spades. The puzzles are very nice.
ReplyDeleteI haven’t done a jigsaw puzzle in years. One of my sisters-in-law lives in a retirement centre and they always have one on the go there.
ReplyDeleteHello Denise. The temperature is very high here, so we've been staying indoors with the AC on until the evening. With little Nikolas in the house, as you can imagine, we don't have any time to get bored 🤣 This week I was thinking about getting a puzzle myself. Maybe your post was the message I needed to finally do it.
ReplyDeleteWe have a real puzzle to work on soon and it's gonna be so much fun. I loved the digital ones too back when my old tablet would be able to do them.
ReplyDeleteLots and lots and lots of rain here so much so that finishing the deck was on hold. Upcoming is supposed to be hot, hot, hot so somewhere in there the deck may get done, though it will have to be before or after the hottest part of the day otherwise the stain, she gets sticky and doesn't wanna do her job.
Understandable. If it gets that hot out, I don't want to do my job either.
Wishing you a fun week.
Hello Denise,
ReplyDeleteThey are all beautiful puzzle pictures. Take care, enjoy your day and the week ahead.
Lovely vibrant and happy colors and phots
ReplyDeleteHugs cecilia
happy sunday too
ReplyDeleteDear Denise :)
ReplyDeleteOh my, how lovely they all are. I also like the animal puzzles the best, and am doing a round one now with two beautiful birds. as the centre piece.. The weather here is SO hot I kept the blinds closed all day. Thank you for your much appreciated visits Denise.:) I'm glad your new specs are helping you see better.
Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.
All the best
Sonjia.
You could make your own puzzles online with your photos!
ReplyDeleteCancel your appointments if you can - it's not good to go out in high temperatures.
ReplyDeletehappy sunday denise!! i recognize some of those puzzles, as you know, i am a puzzle girl. funny...i do one, every morning, as i start my day and try to wake up fully. i knit at night!!
ReplyDeleteBeim Betrachten deiner bunten Bilder bekomme ich gleich gute Laune. Ich liebe leuchtende Farben. Sicher steckt viel Arbeit in diesen Puzzles.
ReplyDeleteHier ist es noch immer sehr heiß und ich bin froh über eine Abwechslung.
Love all these pictures you have good taste. Our weather here is ridiculous and we have been told not much change in July. We have been up to 45C, 115F !! Cheers Diane
ReplyDeleteI love to do regular puzzles (on the puzzle board on my table), but every time you post the ones you do on your tablet, it makes me want to try one too.
ReplyDeleteThese are all lovely. My favorite is the very first one of the cat bordered by sunflowers.
Weather here has not been too bad, but it will turn into a scorcher (in the 100's F) by mid week.
I really like the one with the butterflies. It's been really hot here too 107 yesterday.
ReplyDeleteI've never got to like on line jig saws.
ReplyDeleteLindas imagenes. Te mando un beso y te deseo una buena semana.
ReplyDeleteI used to love doing puzzles. Unfortunately, my arthritis causes problems with my hands now. I'm envious!
ReplyDeletehave a happy week Denise. We are having a wet winter which is odd for us, as our winters are normally the dry season. But anyway, life goes on ...

You are not alone in having hot weather on the way, Denise, as we will be having the same in New England this coming week. Our plans are the same as yours to stay indoors and cool.
ReplyDeleteI love your puzzles and all the colors. And I won't be going out much either - although I have to say you are a hotter than we are and that is pretty hot.
