Puzzle Day
The Puzzle: the history, the types, the topics.
Part of brain health is keeping it active with things like puzzles. 
Are you a puzzle person? What kind of puzzle, or I guess I should ask what topic of puzzle?
I am not a great puzzle person but I recognize the value of them for my brain so I work a few different topics of puzzles here and there.

When I hear or see the word 'curmudgeon' I always think of this guy...

Walter Matthau.  He's played a lot of different types of characters but he plays a grumpy old man so well that it's the only way I think of him!

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
