Very tough....took me 40 minutes longer for my reg 192 cut.....tried to put all the holes together first...but only ended up with a big bunch of holes...what a mess I had...ha ha ha
A proper puzzle for a Sunday--holy, holy, holy.
I did the same thing.

You think that's bad...I feel asleep while doing the puzzle. It took me 13 hrs 16 min 39 sec to do this puzzle! Is that a record? lol!

That borders on narcolepsy! You must have a really comfortable computer chair! I'll trade you mine, Joyce. You'll never doze again!

Lol! I have a laptop and I do all my computer stuff in bed. It's not a really good idea...I fall asleep easily and the laptop slides off and sometimes falls to the floor. It's got cracks and dents all over it!

I bought a tablet so I could do that but it isn't any good for jigsaws. You really have to have a big screen. Since I have a desktop I won't spring for a laptop, too. I wouldn't last long either if I could sit in bed to do the puzzles.

Pixipixil...I bought a laptop back in Oct 2014...hated it for puzzles...took it back...now my kids tell me "your new computer screen is bigger than your TV '

Yup. The big flat computer screens are really nice now.

My laptop is a touch screen, so doing puzzles is similar to doing one on a table. The screen is fairly large, so I usually do the 300 classic cut with no problem. I've tried the 520 one, but about went cross-eyed!

What kind of laptop? Do touchscreens work for doing artwork?

Mine is a Lenovo. It's one of the cheaper ones. It doesn't have a CD rom, but I really haven't needed one. It comes with Windows 8 (yuck! ) but you can still get to Google to pull up C4J. I'm not sure what the screen size is, but it's plenty big enough for me, and my eyesight is not all that good!

And yes, it's great for doing artwork!

When I was looking at tablets the salesman was pushing a Lenovo but I had used a nabi demo and fell in love with it. Now I wish I'd gotten something else. The nabi is too hung up on parental controls and kiddy games.
I sure agree with you on that, took me longer that usual.
It seem like it was very busy to work with...

We set a record today and may due that for the next 2 days...78 was our high today and the next 2 days should be just about the same (this is not normal for us), but we could also some snow or ice by the weekend. I'm heading for be to will read a short time, have to get up early tomorrow. Have early check up (just ann. ones) and also need to go by grocery & library (will finish my last book) and may have lunch out. Glad you missed the snow., but ice is no fun either.
Hi folks, thank you so much for all your support and prayers. My husband is still very sore and has rainbow coloured back where all the bruises have come out. Not eating as he is too sore. I thought I was OK then about 10:30 this morning I felt quite ill and this went on until 12:15 when I had to make a made dash for the toilet and the inevitable happened and then my dear husband said I was gorgeous lol. Only a man in love!!!! then had a couple of good hours and then ended up with stomach pains. I guess it will take a little time to settle down. Don't think I want another experience like that in the near future.

Be careful!! You might have some damage that was missed make sure you go back to the Doctor.

Chamomile tea for the stomach upsets, Aussie. Relaxation exercises with slow, deep breathing will also help. Spend time outdoors among the trees, bushes, and plants to let their healing energies help you!

Oh my! I saw this and went back to yesterday to read what happened. Not a fun time! I am relieved you are both "okay" - in one piece at least. It could have been so much worse. Sending good thoughts your way as you heal. Good you have each other.

Don't hesitate to go to the Emergency Room if needed. There's always the potential for soft tissue or organ damage that won't show up in traditional x-rays.
