13 Days of Samhain & Inktober ’25 – Kill/Cure/Puzzle

***

For Sammi’s challenge:

13 Days of Samhain (volume vi) – A Horror / Halloween Writing Prompt Challenge

Prompt # 7 = Kill or Cure

FALLING APART

Don’t freak the freak out, when you call in distress…

You got yourself right into this mess.

Why come to me, singing the blues?

My dears, you didn’t have to choose.

Don’t call and expect a brand new me

To show up and change into what will never be.

You made your decision, and so did I…

You kill with precision, you told me good-bye.

Now you’re falling apart, you want me to fix it…

I followed my heart, but I’m no hypocrite.

My new found love, was my salvation,

But, I’m feeling torn, with obligation.

I love you all, my heart bleeds every day

With tears and regrets…I’ll come, but not stay.

My advice you will hear, but it won’t be a cure…

You’ll work it out, of that I am sure.

My life is elsewhere, it’s crazy and hard,

But, we’ve mended some fences, and that’s our reward.

Jigsaw Puzzle Update

***

It’s been awhile since I’ve mentioned the jigsaw puzzles we work, and we are still going strong on completing them. Here’s how it’s been going.

I believe all these can be enlarged by clicking the photo.

***

We just finished this one today. It took a long time, as all those sunflowers were pretty hard to do. There were so many yellow and yellow/orange pieces!

***

This one was pretty cool. It was a glow in the dark one, and the middle photo shows it actually glowing.

 

***

This one was fun to do. The hardest part was the rug.

***

This one was interesting. It was fun to work, but kind of hard. At first we thought the picture and the puzzle pieces just didn’t match up, but in the end it did. There was a little booklet, with a story of a murder mystery, and after working the puzzle we were to find out who did it.

***

This one was fun, and not too awfully hard to work. Lots of kitty cuteness!

***

Here’s some more cat puzzles. I can’t remember in which order we did these. Seems we’ve bought so many puzzles featuring cats!

    

***

Here’s one that’s not about cats. It has toys and games from a long time ago. It was fun to see some that we had when we were kids.

***

I liked this one a lot, because it was all about spooky things of Halloween!

***

This one is the newest one, which we started today. So far, so good. I’ve already got most of the outside border done.

***

So, that’s pretty much up to date, if I didn’t forget one. Hope you enjoyed looking! 🙂

Seven More Jigsaw Puzzles

***

We’ve been steadily working on our jigsaw puzzles this past month. Here’s six that we’ve finished, and one we just started on.

This first one we just started yesterday. So far, so good. It’s called, “Puzzler’s Desk”, and is a Buffalo brand puzzle, and is 750 pieces.

***

***

I liked this next one a lot. We just got done with it a day or so ago. It has funny words on the items in the pantry, all to do with cats. 🙂 There were lots of pieces with specific words or pictures on them, so it was easier than some other puzzles. It is called, “Ethel the Gormet”, and is from, “The Cats of Charles Wysocki”, a Buffalo brand puzzle. It is 750 pieces

 

***

This one is called, “Kitten Kitchen Capers”, and is a Buffalo brand puzzle. It is 750 pieces, and was fun to do. Those cats were sure making a mess.

***

This one is called, “Classic Gas”. It is 750 pieces, from, “Wheels”, from the Master Pieces brand puzzle.

  

***

Here’s a few extra photos of puzzle things: 2 pieces that look like other things, puzzle dust (from the cardboard they are made from), and a large spatula we use to gather up lots of puzzle pieces at one time. 🙂

  

***

This one is called, “Roadside America”. It is a White Mountain puzzle brand, and is 1,000 pieces. Lots of things to find on this one!

***

This one is called, “The Man Cave”, and has lots of hobby type things in the room. It is a Ravensburger puzzle of 1,000 pieces.

***

This one is called, “Picture Purrfect”. It is one of the Cats series of Buffalo brand puzzles, and is 750 pieces. Very cute. 🙂

***

Next up I think we will do a Halloween themed puzzle that we already bought! 🙂
