It is going to be pretty if I ever get it done.

I love puzzles. I like to set one up in the winter and work on it at my own pace. I started this one the weekend after Christmas...it is 750 pieces. It has been a work in progress. I have done thousand pieces, they are way too much...750 will really challenge you. A good puzzle to take you through the winter is probably a 500 piece, no to easy, but gives you a challenge. And if y ou get it done, you might to 2 or 3 if it is a long cold winter.

This is a very pretty puzzle. I am a retro person. My daughter who lives in Texas sent it to me back in the fall and I put it back til after the holidays. My goal was spring, which is officially here now....but I believe I will have it done when I feel like it is really spring.

A Funny Thing Happened On the Way to Spring

I have developed a blood disorder. It seem my bone marrow Photobucket


is not making enough white infection fighting cells. They have checked so may of these Photobucket

and they all come up short.


I have felt great all winter and looking forward to a fun summer. Last summer sucked. So I am asking " What's up with this God? You couldn't let me have one good summer?"

NO PEEPS FOR ME

Back in the 50's our Easter baskets had the pretty pastel colored marshmallow eggs nestled down in the grass, and usually a chocolate bunny, and some jelly beans. I loved the jelly beans and the bunny, but I was always to disappointed that those pretty pastel eggs were not as good as they looked. I did not like marshmallow.

But as I look back now, I am thankful for those pretty pastel eggs, because if it had been a few years later, it would have been these:

I do not know when Peeps came along, and I can never understand how they have stayed around. I do not think even a pretty pastel candy coating would improve them. It is like eating a mouth full of sugar.

MY SPIRITS NEEDED A LIFT

Photobucket





Laughter


Laughter is a pleasant sound, it spreads joy all around

Whether you're young or old, laughter can be like

Magic to our souls, whenever we're feeling sad

Laughter can sustain us so that things don't seem

Quite so bad, if we give into laughter, it can be like

A cure for something that seems impossible to endure

So any time your spirits need a lift fill yourself

With laughter and you will find, a much happier

Person with a peaceful frame of mind
