I haven't been here for some time. Hope everyone is fine. Last Friday my eldest child, Adam, was shot and killed by two gunmen. He was 31. This is by far the worst experience of my life. To all who are suffering the loss of s loved one, may God comfort your hearts.
Oh, malko, what a tragedy! To have violence touch your family is terrifying and heartbreaking. Your son has been made whole again in God's love, which may be only small comfort to you in your grief right now. My prayers to help ease the pain in your heart go out steadily.

May God comfort you in your grief. Do not allow others to tell you how to grieve it is personal to you.

I just received an email from Malko this morning telling me of this tragedy. She is a beautiful Christian lady with much on her plate and I hope we can all get behind her in prayer for her enormous loss. I know she will appreciate it. Hugs.

Just below the image to the left of the timer. I had to look for it too.

Is the timer working while you do the puzzle so you can see it? Will have to experiment I guess!

The timer is right under the little picture that shows what the puzzle is going to look like. It is running all the time from the moment you move the first piece until the last piece snaps into place. The pause button looks like this l l right in front of the time. Push it and the time stops until you move another puzzle piece.

I just use the save & then when I'm ready to work on it again I just bring it up when I'm going to work on it again!

I use the whole space and then when I put it small or regular size, the part with the timer is not there. So I just do it and if I don't finish, just delete it and start over later. Mine are not big sized ones.

CatLadyOKC that is what I do, only half the time I forget to get back to them for quite some time. Usually there are more than enough to keep me busy for a while. Be safe.

Finally solved my problem. Didn't pay attention to the arrow on bottom left when you use the whole screen. All of this just needs practice in order to get it right. I'm learning--sometimes slowly!

I keep a list of where I'm on the ones that are not done, that helps me.

PS. I usually have several that just has 1 to 3 pieces left out & I can put them in when I'm ready to use them.
Tough one to keep focused on. When I go for a new cup of coffee or when the dog wants in or out I too forget the pause button. But I am not trying to beat any ones time..I do these for the shear pleasure of it and use them to while away a few hours each morning
Elijah what I meant to write was the save button not pause, I use it quite a bit ( when I remember ) and if I can't get back to it right away it just stays in save mode until I either finish it or deleat it. Sorry for the confusion and as usual be safe.

I agree. It took me forever to get it done, but I did keep at it and finally finished! Blessings to all.
