NewTricks Posted March 11 Author ID:1622480 Share Posted March 11 You can see the details a bit better with everything complete. Nice color and contrast. No manipulation except cropping. What was your favorite? Bugles with French onion dip was mine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewTricks Posted March 12 Author ID:1622678 Share Posted March 12 Our puzzle room is hoppin' with 3 works in progress. 1500, 1000 and 750. Guess which one I'm working on? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David H. Lipman Posted March 12 ID:1622685 Share Posted March 12 1500 ? 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewTricks Posted March 12 Author ID:1622705 Share Posted March 12 I only gaze in wonder & amazement. The pieces are very small. I'll let superior minds get twisted, frustrated and morose. Focusing exclusively on joy these days. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewTricks Posted March 12 Author ID:1622707 Share Posted March 12 Three tenants are doing puzzles. The "master" is doing the 1500 and 1000 simultaneously. I am "helping" on the 750. My big contributions were perimeter, the basket, the wheels and the bike frame. The most important difference~regarding joy. When I no longer feel it, I walk away. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewTricks Posted March 13 Author ID:1622945 Share Posted March 13 Here's the 1500 one, with my 2 inch key for size comparison. She also chose my former Puppy puzzle, I "helped" just once because she doesn't like interference. The sunlight shows how dusty it is in here~everywhere. I've got an air purifier running round the clock upstairs. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewTricks Posted March 15 Author ID:1623323 Share Posted March 15 Time flies! 2 months later, I'm back with Wolves. Changed the orientation on the board, dumped all the pieces out, loosely sorted, getting acquainted. Catching up with my buddies. 😊 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewTricks Posted April 2 Author ID:1627394 Share Posted April 2 (edited) This puzzle has attached itself to me like a burr on a pant leg. I didn't want it there, but can't seem to take it off. I've gone through "feelings" about the difficulty. It is 1000 pieces after all. It took 2 weeks to break through to enlightenment. I'm now working it from 2 sides. I took a chair and placed it opposite the customary viewpoint. That created enough space to sort better and see things upside down. Even if they are right side up, getting my eyeballs 8 inches from pieces helps a lot. If I can get a complete horizontal side to side, soon, that will be the ultimate.

NewTricks Posted April 3 Author ID:1627658 Share Posted April 3 I have reached my goal!!!! 🤸♀️😻💯💥🌸 The horizontal "anchor" is complete. Wolf faces in progress. In unrelated news, I'm on a 4 day STREAK with 3,134 steps a DAY. That could be due to sleeping well, finally. 🎉 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted April 3 Root Admin ID:1627663 Share Posted April 3 Good you're sleeping better. Poor sleep can wear on you quickly I don't do tracking applications myself but my wife tries to get in 10K steps a day but not easy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewTricks Posted April 3 Author ID:1627682 Share Posted April 3 1 hour ago, AdvancedSetup said: my wife tries to get in 10K steps a day but not easy Smart woman! No, walking approximately 4.5 miles a day, depending on stride is pushing way past doing errands and shopping. You dedicate yourself to 45 minutes or more of EXERCISE. Back when I first got my LG phone it has a pre-installed fitness tracker, now since discontinued but still can't remove it! It was set to 10K steps daily. Before I knew how to use my phone and didn't think I could change that 🤣 🤣 🤣 I did do it. Naturally that went down the tubes when I realized my ignorance. FYI: for people who may be interested in getting some steps there are other ways to do it besides linking to apps. Regular pedometers and distance markers in mapping programs will give close estimates. Just in case you have moments of free time.

NewTricks Posted April 9 Author ID:1628834 Share Posted April 9 I was minding my own business today, working on the wolf puzzle when staff rolled through giving away little Hershey's "Sundae cups" Ice cream with whipped cream, with artificial strawberry sauce! I let it partially melt then exceeded my calories for the day and made my sacrifice this morning of NO flavored coffee null and void.
