I&#8217;ve always liked doing them. Many Thanksgivings and Christmases in Santa Clara featured a jigsaw puzzle. Mom likes doing them and had has one going occasionally. Dad thinks it&#8217;s foolishness so he ignores the whole thing.<\/p>\n<p>I had talked about doing them here at my apartment for a long time. I even went shopping for a folding table but the ones I found were funky so I blew it off.<\/p>\n<p>Then Rose came over one day and brought a table that she said she never used. It was nice: good support and surface and size. A week or so later she brought over a new puzzle. I was off!<\/p>\n<p>That was about a year ago. Since then, I&#8217;ve had a puzzle going pretty much all the time. I&#8217;ve gone through everything that Mom has. I&#8217;ve bought a few puzzles and Sarah gave me one but a couple of weeks ago I finished one and had nothing in the pipeline. Barnes and Noble carries puzzles as does Target, but I didn&#8217;t care for the ones they had so . .\u00a0 to the Internet!<\/p>\n<p>I started at the website of the last one I did. It was made in USA and decent quality. That led to Puzzle Warehouse. They had some that I liked. As I put the first couple in the cart, they announced free shipping for an order over $75. Oh well, I don&#8217;t do this often. Six puzzles later, I&#8217;m done.<\/p>\n<p>They came a couple of days ago and now my puzzle table is full again! Now I just have to figure out where to store the others . . .<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-554\" src=\"http:\/\/thezachproject.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/20170310_080650-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"http:\/\/thezachproject.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/20170310_080650-300x169.jpg 300w, http:\/\/thezachproject.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/20170310_080650-1024x576.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/thezachproject.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/20170310_080650-400x225.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I guess I never wrote about my jigsaw puzzles.
