Now that is something that I have been looking for and I wasn't having much luck. Either they weren't for a Mac or they were just limited time trial versions. Thanks, GC. That definitely will help pass some hours for me. Shauna

Since I have new windows in my house, I don't turn the heat up any higher when it is very, very cold out. It is below zero at night now with the arctic air. I have an electric mattress pad on my bed and decided not to use my down comforter this winter as I prefer the heat from the mattress pad. During the day, I wear sweats and have been wearing an old thermal top under my sweatshirt. I also put a throw over my legs when I am sitting. I am going to make chili tomorrow and don't plan to leave the house on Monday which should be the coldest day. Tonight on the news they said we should warm up our cars for 15 minutes before driving.

I love doing jigsaw puzzles and never thought of taking a picture of the finished project. LOL My friends and I do puzzles all the time. I like the Springbok puzzles from Hallmark the best but have done others. My favourite puzzles are "mystery" puzzles, the ones you don't have a picture of. LOL I never look at the box when I am doing a puzzle either - takes the fun away. I just got a 1000 piece puzzle on sale at Hallmark for half price and it is sitting on the kitchen table waiting for me to start. When I have lost a puzzle piece and I know I am going to do the puzzle in the future or lend it out I take the the small section of the puzzle where the piece is missing and lay it in the lid of the box and then I outline the missing piece so I know what to look for when doing it again and know that a piece is missing. I do the edge pieces first and then I start from the bottom and try to work from left to right half way up the puzzle then I do the upper half when the bottom half is finished. Anne

Socks, I have never kept track of the time spent on a puzzle. If I did, I would probably feel so guilty that I would ban them from the house. Jasdip, I love a challenging jigsaw puzzle, but there is no way that I would start on one of those doublesided ones. Yesterday afternoon at Barnes and Noble I saw some. I didn't want to tempt myself and quickly exited the store. Sunshines, my sister has dibs on this puzzle next. After that I will add it to a box of puzzles that will be donated to the local VA Hospital. They really appreciate them there.
