Day.... two.... completed...

Must... sleep... no.... must... keep.... doing... puzzle....

Ok, well, it's not *quite* that bad, although I concede that some optional activities (like personal hygiene and feeding the children) have been deferred in favour of getting in as much puzzle time as possible.

It is contagious though. The 4 and 8-year-olds decided that they would have a puzzle day too. They pulled out as many puzzles as they could find, and assembled them on the kitchen floor. They were very pleased with themselves for completing so many puzzles, especially considering that *we* (the adults and teenagers) hadn't yet finished our ONE.



However, barring any unforeseen circumstances, I'm thinking that Day 3 might be the day.

Or maybe Day 4.

At least, DEFINITELY before Christmas. So we'll have somewhere to eat the turkey.
