I've not done a jigsaw since I was around 16 and was staying at my aunt and uncles before my cousin Fiona's first wedding. Decided to do this one and when I am done I'll mount it in a picture frame.



First couple of hours worth of work.

My mom started doing jigsaw puzzles when she got dementia but she can't do even simple ones anymore. I did one not too long ago, just set it up on a table and would put one or two pieces together every now and then. Strangely calming and satisfying.

I got a couple of jigsaw puzzles for christmas last year. I don't have the time, patience or a big enough table to do these so I gave them to my niece.

My mom also started to do jigsaw puzzles a few yeras before she passad away. She didn't have dementia though. However, I did enjoy doing the puzzles with her.

Well done! I love jigsaw puzzles but had to stop them while my children were young because they'd scatter them and eat the pieces. These days I mostly only have time for smaller puzzles than I used to do, like 100-300 piece ones. Doing puzzles can be Zen, turn on something relaxing, old radio shows, the LeVar Burton podcast, light music, and fade into bringing order to chaos.

I haven't done jigsaws since a child. Tiana loved to do jigsaw puzzles.
That one is super cool! You should glue it to a board and hang it up when your done!

I dunno. I did it with a puzzle once. I did it with rubber glue.

The frame comes with a sticky back designed for this kind of thing.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
