many pieces

I'm getting more tired and its becoming harder to post.  Mostly because of being 34 weeks pregnant.  Partly due to our new 3000-piece puzzle.  There is something about having a picture, and a problem, and a goal - there is something neat about a puzzle that I think appeals to everyone because its a little bit like life.  It's an addiction, I have many other things to do - but you can't help being drawn to the puzzle table and that insatiable desire to make everything fit in its place.

I don't recommend 3000-piece puzzles.  Even with a family of five.  We are on day three and we no longer have a dinner table.

My husband and I always make a good team.
My father-in-law said he could do it in a day.  He lasted about twenty minutes and then took a nap.
My mother-in-law kept looking for numbers to match and mismatching pieces.
My brother in law shows me EVERY SINGLE PIECE that he has matched.  I don't think I can take it anymore.
