I have an autumn trees one too but I prefer (or just have but I like them) scenery with buildings. And my fav is a painting about ancient kids playing ancient games, that’s interesting. And somewhere I have a wedding with zillion people wearing beautiful folk garments with embroidery.
I will show them when I finally bring myself to do any…
Puzzle relaxes me, it’s very fun to me. Except horrible ones like our old one I don’t have anymore with zillion pieces and half of them are blue sky with white/gray clouds, about the SAME color all the way. It was a nightmare.
But a smaller one with variety is fun. I do like I do the socks, I grab the most obvious ones, put them together and in the end the boring ones finally find their places/pair 
Except puzzle pieces are more numerous and doesn’t come in pairs so I just grab the pieces belonging to the same part. If it’s not obvious as the puzzle has 6 similarly green trees or 3 pink bushes, I still grab them together… I start with the edges, of course and the easy parts… And then I get momentum and things just fall into place. I stop when I don’t want to do it anymore but it is really fun and I am focused and forget about things and it’s good. So it never gives me a headache 
Shapes, yep. Some jigsaw puzzles aren’t good as there are pieces fitting and even the pattern is kinda fit and I realize much later they should be separated… But it’s rare. I usually have unique enough pieces Surely only doing not too many pieces puzzles help but even them are different, some are cut more uniquely and it’s helpful.
I need the cover though, I would be annoyed with the increased difficulty to put it together without that help. I could do it but it would ruin my fun. I kind of like to grab some interesting piece and try to find its place on the pic… Even if it takes more than a little time.
Oh. I didn’t think about that but you are right, I need to stop postponing digging up my tiny patch, what if we get rain and I need to stop days? My back is pretty okay now, I just didn’t want to do it in gloomy weather when we will have sunshine again soon.
We actually got a little sunshine in the afternoon.
My pansies got more flowers, they are so very beautiful especially the dark purple velvety one 
I can be so very happy with my little pansies but they are amazing.
I can relate. I only ripped up the most useless “books”. Like very stupid “prophecies” (it was free and in German so I practiced my German at least).
I respect proper books so much. They are precious, my before Internet life was filled with them.
(I really should continue my new black hole book, I keep forgetting about it… I am on a mission to lower my YT “watch later” videos so I do that in the evenings, I am almost down to 400, it was 516 not so long ago and I obviously add some every day…)
Alvaro came into the room, he is shocked by the book ripping too.
I do that to the most boring, dry or lean pieces sometimes. Well, did. I have better ideas like my mustard sauce. Poor mint sauce, we never will use it up I suppose.
How can meatballs be bad? They are supposed to have okay ingredients… But when I was a kid, the ones making the school lunch was able to ruin even boiled potatoes… Probably the ingredient as no one can do that otherwise. I didn’t like lunch lunches most of the time…
Okay if I started to write about food, I talk about my day. Hopefully finished. 3-3.5 hour, a few small meals but the first one was the biggest.
Scrambled eggs with tiny pork jowl, the 2 front legs of the young rabbit (the whole animal was below 2 kg ready to cook, without head and paws), some cheese whisps, sour cream, little fried pork liver, a sausage, coffee with egg milk… Even small extras, I didn’t behave well today but it’s still fine for me and below 20g carbs. I hope I get some extra determination for April…
1600 kcal, low protein (I mean, not much above 100), higher fat. I liked my meal enough but had not much appetite and hunger. But no problem. Originally I didn’t plan to eat liver but fried pork chuck but I wasn’t in the mood for it for some reason.
So I had only about 360g meat today, way below a pound. It will be higher tomorrow I suppose.
I wasn’t active today, had a tiny walk and that’s it. No workout, no stationary bike as my legs are tired now. Should do some core exercises though. They are quick and easy.
And tomorrow I try with my bigger weights, at least for my biceps. I go over 8kg, yay. Now that I only use one at a time while just holding the other. It’s light but I started way lower What those people in videos do with 0.5 kg I can’t imagine, I obviously started with way more, I wasn’t a total invalid. My smallest dumbbells are 2kg ones, their usability always were pretty limited but I had a few special exercises where I used them. Or at least one, I used the 3.25 ones more. Even for chest exercise in the beginning, now imagine Now I do proper chest presses with 11kg dumbbells, they gave Alvaro muscle aches today I was a wimp who don’t try hard at 7pm but he tried to do 3x12 and failed. He still did more than me but I am better well-fasted. But I know he is a tiny bit stronger than me 
Oh well, I race only with myself! I don’t ever read about articles about weights as they always write things like the average inexperienced woman deadlifts 60+ kg and I totally refuse to believe it.
I still didn’t try deadlift…
One day I persuade Alvaro to do all my exercises, not just the chest press (once in a blue moon), I am mildly curious.
