Bob and our big achievement: The Puzzle


It's been many years since we put together a jigsaw puzzle but we got this one for Christmas and have worked on it off and on until tonight and ....ta-dum! here it is fini! I know I shouldn't be bragful but it was actually a pretty hard puzzle due to the fact that we forgot to work on something white or at least light coloured and the romantic lighting of our dining room isn't really appropriate for putting together puzzles. All those colours everywhere and the dark colours in the background against our dark wooden table made it difficult but we persevered, me with the use of eye drops, he with a nap or two,  lol, yeah, we are getting old and feeble but we did it! It's with great pride I show you my hubby and our completed 750 piece jigsaw puzzle.

Thanks Linda, it was a fun way to get away from the tv for awhile.

Good Job -Now you should frame it ! Nice to see you Bob.. Jeepers if you got it for Christmas you did well as it is less then a month :)

No framing, nowhere to hang it so it's already well mixed up and back in the box. We do sort of get a little obsessed with a new toy. If you and Larry would like to take a swing at it i'll send it to you and you can frame it if you want.
