This doesn't surprise me Marie - I figured you did stuff to exercise your mind. I have read studies that say people over 50 (certainly includes Gail and I) should do mentally challenging tasks (crossword, puzzles etc.) daily to maintain an active mind and stave off deterioration of the brain cognitive loss normal with aging. It is supposed to add a min 10-20 years to lifespan - both physically and mental acuteness.
BTW - I so much enjoy seeing your art work. Life has been really hectic around here the last few months so I don't comment as much as I used to - but I definitely check out my friends spaces as often as possible.
Well...that's good news :-) I also read that each time you learn something new your brain produces new connections between the neurons. But sometimes I panick a little because there are gaps in my memory. On the other hand in those 79 years of my life there has been stuffed so much information in my brain...it's impossible to remember everything!
Thanks, Bill, for your kind comment.....I have the same problem with writing comments. Too many friends, to little time :-)
Ik kreeg deze van Elly voor mijn verjaardag in Mei, Dimphy:-) Ze had ze met 5 sterren gekocht. Ik vond ze eerst erg moeilijk, nu nog trouwens, maar dat is juist de uitdaging en ik ben er lekker lang zoet mee! Gaat ook steeds beter :-) Ik kocht zelf altijd met 3 of 4 sterren.
Nico zegt altijd tegen mij ' Daar moet je een kronkel voor in je hersens hebben' Hahaha.
