Snap out of it!

I've been a little cranky lately (maybe "little" is an understatement). I don't know why, but I am. Moods are an interesting thing. There is no specific reason for me to be little miss cranky pants, but I am.

Anyhoo, last weekend when it was all rainy and dreary outside, I decided to embrace my inner nerd and do a puzzle. I really dig puzzles, which is totally perplexing to my husband. A man who has the attention span of a gnat and has to be "doing something" every second of every day. And, to him, doing a puzzle is tantamount to doing nothing.

Plus, he swears I can never finish any project I start, which is totally not true. Except for a quilt that sits in pieces in our guest room, a few scarves I've started to knit, several embroidery projects and a couple of books that lay on the nightstand. But besides that, I totally finish things. Heck, I finished off a pan of brownies just today. So I had to finish that puzzle, dammit. Even if only to prove that I can finish something beyond a big plate of food. And, finally, last night I did.

Notice any resemblance to the puzzle I chose to do and my current state of mind? Hmmm...
