Jelly Beans Premium Jigsaw Puzzle

WOW! You have real dedication! Eight and a half hours, and 1008 pieces that make no sense to me! I don't think I could do it O_O

I like doing the 1008 size but I try to do them as an extra project, it may take me a week but try only work on them an hour or so a day.

I wouldnt even know where to start on those. I can assure you it would take me much longer than you, if I even finished one at all lol! I have a lot of respect for you completing those!

Toy Beads & Candles(large ones at end of first row under search) are my shorts time of just over 5 hours I think. I border them and then move all pieces to the side and start isolating one color at a time, starting with the smallest color area. They are much easier to do on the screen, rather than on a card table with the cats help, spend lots of time looking for the pieces that way.

Lol! We have several puzzles at my house, but my son, for some reason, ate some of the pieces! I too have cats that would try to help. I did not realize how much I enjoyed doing puzzles, so much less frustrating when there are no pieces to lose! Maybe one day when I get a little better I will try one of these big puzzles! I dont know how some of these people do them so fast!

Puzzles relax me, I also have a 22" monitor & that helps. My notepad is about to go out...the door. I got it mainly so I could download books, would not try puzzles, but so far I have gotten 3 downloaded on it since October, even took a class on it. The only two I did not have problems with was when I was already at the Library to donate some books.
I went thru it step by step with one of the girls there and it worked just fine. This morning I tried it again from home & after over an hour still did not get it done. It kind of defeats the point of having it if I'm going to have to go over there everytime I want to download one. Hope you will try one of the big ones one of these days, let me know when you do.

I have been playing on my computer at home which is hooked up to a huge flat screen tv and it is a long drag from the left to the right side of the screen if you play on full screen lol! I tried to play one of the bigger ones on my lunch break today at work and the pieces were microscopic so I will have to try it on the computer at home. I might start one and work on it like you do a little at a time! I always forget to pause my puzzles after saving, and I wound up spending 20 hours on one the other day because of it hehehe. Time sure seems to fly when I work on these, and like you, they relax me too!

I love doing the big puzzles and the time just runs away.

I like to hide the timer until I'm done with it. Sometimes it's better not knowing. Our snow, ice, sleet, hail, rain & thunder are gone. So got out to get to grocery, came home & watched noon news and forcast, they are prediciting it again for this weekend & Monday, have had enough, will be just as happy with plain old rain.

Thank you Kevin :) I have not yet been brave enough to try one of the big puzzles, but I did check out the zoom! This will be most helpful if I ever decide to muster up some courage :)

CatLadyOKC - I think we got the bottom portion of what you just had! I wasnt sure if we were going to float away or not, the creeks were up over the roads and the water just couldnt get away fast enough. Hope you are warming up and drying out some up there! The weather has been beautiful here :)

Typical Oklahoma, sun is shinning today. We are still short on rain, but getting better. Suppose to get more Sat & Sun, they say might get just a few snow flurries here overnite Sun if the temperture dropes low enough, but no accumlation.
Come on get brave, I think my best time for a 1008 was on the Pinwheel I just did 5+ hrs. Have
not dropped it yet. If you put Pinwheel in the search I think you get 2 (i did the front facing one). I start with a 300, then go to the 500 before I decide on the 1008 one.
