Sort of isolating to recover so these are what I have been doing since Christmas night:

The wolf one is 1000 pieces and the flowers is a 500 piece.
Started a new one today and hope to have it finished before I head back to work on Monday. :)
This kept me nicely occupied while isolated with COVID. 1000 pieces but the difficult part was the fact that - except for the edges - there were only two basic shapes to the pieces.

When I had the chance to acquire it in puzzle form, I could not resist. It turns out there is also a dark backstory to Karla's. In a nutshell, it is owned by the family of a young woman who was dating a Saugus cop and it is believed by her family that he played a part in her mysterious death. The family stays current on the taxes, and leaves the decrepit property in its high-visibility location as a big f*ck you to the town.

That's very pretty Kay.
That is so pretty, Kay!
As I've probably posted before, I do anywhere from 1-3 puzzles over the holidays. I actually have three new ones, but not sure how many I will complete. Started the first and just had a great night sitting and working on it... not worrying about anything or rushing to get anything done. Cheesy one I rescued from the school garbage - photo of Friends. LOL. But it's a puzzle and I'm enjoying the process of putting it together.
I can see how doing puzzles is a good meditative exercise. Happy stuff, enjoy your holiday. I know you do pretty hard physical work so this downtime must be nice.
