This morning we did housework and, while I was dusting, I came across a jigsaw puzzle. It is years since I did a jigsaw but decided it would be a change from the crossword I was in the middle of so just before lunch I found a couple of trays and started. It's not large but enjoyable.
While I was getting lunch Doug did a bit more of the autumn clear out of the garden and I got these last three roses of the season.
Tomorrow we find out whether we stay at Level 4 or go back down to Level 3 with more businesses able to open.
I am doing jigsaws online, none here on the shelves now. I, too, wonder if we stay at Level 4 for a while longer, maybe, as 2 cases are a mystery ,one in Whanganui, one in Timaru, they are not sure how they contacted it. Lovely roses.
ReplyDeleteI knew of the mystery case in Whanganui but not of the one in Timaru. Yes the rose us lovely.
DeleteThat should pass an hour or two. I'm rather wishing I'd kept all the old jigsaws, but they were given away long ago.
ReplyDeleteI think most of ours were given away so was surprised to find this one.
DeleteI haven't done a jig saw puzzle in years! Nor do we have any, so I am unlikely to resume any time soon.
ReplyDeleteWe both had some jigsaws but when I moved here there was a big clear out (2 houses into one don't go) and I think this is the only one that survived most likely because of the subject as my late husband and I had several holidays on narrowboats.
DeleteWe have so many puzzles, there is always one on the game table. With the stay at home order many of our neighbors have borrowed puzzles from our collection.
ReplyDeleteI must get some more as I enjoyed this one.
DeleteWe are eagerly awaiting news of today's updates. The other half use to do jigsaws, think he needs to find some he hasn't done.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing I miss is the library - I have been rationing my reading although I am sure I could find something on the shelves here. Unless libraries open I don't think level 3 will make much difference to us.
DeleteWhen our children were younger I had a huge collection of jigsaw puzzles, mostly bought from op shops. Now I have none at all. I sometimes wonder why I gave all of them away.
ReplyDeleteWe too are awaiting the governments decision to see what is going to happen. I would be happy if more people could return to work as I know of several who are really struggling financially in lock-down.
Yes, it is a really difficult decision - people want/need to return to work but if we go too early we could get more cases.
DeleteBack in the UK they have suggested that oldies (such as me) should continue with the lockdown until a vaccine is found. Some hope!
