A Golden Morning on a Gray Afternoon


Remember, I told you that I also have two puzzles that Diane sent for Miki and me to do together?

Miki is pretty much back to normal, which is not to say she's at full strength. But she's leading a pretty much normal (if not her desired normal) life.

Today, she drove to my place and we tackled the puzzle with more pieces- 550. That's not a huge number, but it was a little harder than it looked. We are both intense and good puzzle workers. It took us about 4 1/2 hours. But neither of us was willing to stop.

It's not really blizzardy today, but gray and snowing. A good day for a puzzle. And it was fun to have someone to do it with.

Title of it is "A Golden Morning." A little goldfinch on a fencepost with golden sunflowers.

I did edit and write in the morning. Finished my Mason County Press column.

Charlee: "Any puzzle with a bird picture on it is a good puzzle in our book, even if we didn't get to knock the pieces around!"
