Garden Birds by Ravensburger 500pcs. Art by: Howard Robinson. After the challenging Seurat Puzzle I put together prior, this was a breeze. #jigsaw #puzzle #jigsawpuzzle

A Sunday Afternoon on La Grande Jatte 1000pcs by Master Pieces. Art by Georges Seurat. I originally attempted without looking at the box as I love Seurat. Gave up on that! Was challenging even though I know the painting. Was AWESOME exploring it up close. Pointillism #jigsaw #puzzles #jigsawpuzzles

January Boardgame stats. Was a light month for me #bgstats

Boreal by Ravensburg 500pcs, art by Antonio Segura. Another in the “Cherish Your World with Dulk” series. Love this series! Have another in the series “Oceanic Refuge” on order. One of those puzzles you stay up to 1am to complete! (Paying the price though Dragging this morning lol) #jigsaw #puzzles

Colors on Colors by Ravensburger 1000pcs. Art by Karen Kavett. Easy to sort, was a good test of my ability to see hue gradation. Pretty much a “goldilocks” for me (Not too hard not too easy). A puzzle of a puzzle. The image of the puzzle cut on the pieces did my eyes in a few times #jigsaw #puzzles

I almost didn’t post this because many of you would think it’s a fence sive

Ocean Whimsy by Ravensburg 500pcs, art by Laura Konyndyk. After sorting, this puzzle practically put itself together. Easy but Fun #jigsaw #puzzles

Magnificent Mandalas by Ravensburg 500pcs, art by Elspeth McLean. Was fun once I got in the groove as to how to sort, then it came together steadily. #jigsaw #puzzles

Bob spilt on me ;-( ;-( ;-(

Afterglow by Ravensburg 500pcs, art by Antonio Segura. Was very enjoyable to put together. Easy due to its number of destinct colors/textures. Had this completely sorted by color in about 20min, then the put together went extremely fast. #jigsaw #puzzles

Riichi Mahjong. When I win 2 league matches back to back, the game all skill in knowing the right yaku to go for, shape creation & wise defensive play. When I declare Riichi on draw 4, then 3 draws later discard into a DOUBLE Ron against a Hanuman & Magan, the game is all Luck. #Riichi #mahjong

Get off my lawn Spotify!!!

My top game plays of November… 86 matches of Riichi Mahjong east & east/south matches. It’s not an addiction, it’s an obsession. #bgstats #boardgames #riichi #mahjong

Remember the music theme from Jaws?

Last night’s Riichi meetup taught me I need to play a bit more defensive. “Know when to hold ‘em know when to fold ‘em” applies to Mahjong too. Especially when the player to your right calls riichi. #riichi #mahjong

I think the games on my shelf are giving me the stink-eye. #boardgames #riichi #mahjong #RiichiMahjong

After a bit of a self imposed hiatus, I’m painting again. I’ll take it as a win that Siri could identify the species of my painting correctly

So this is how civilized nations hold elections.

Happen upon this little Hermit Thrush on my walk this morning…. Hardly a vocabulary left to wonder, uncertain as we are of so much in this existence, this botched, cumbersome, much-mended, not unsatisfactory thing. (Amy Clampitt 1920-1994)
