Fitness Friday – Fighting Depression
My Progress for last week was wonderful and with the small amount of movements I’ve been feeling better. I had my follow up with my doctor and I’ve been released. So I can do more movement and get my life back to normal. I took the kids for one to three walks every day rain or shine and I hate the rain I really do. I’ve been depressed because of the rain. I need some sunshine so I’m going to spend a few weeks in Texas. It’s rained for 15 days straight. I’ve ...
Why My kids Love the New Frigidaire Double Door Fridge
Our last refrigerator was stainless steal just like this one, but it was not magnetic and it was so sad. My husband and I had a ton of magnets of the kids that we gave away when we changed refrigerators. The kids have never had a large surface for the magnetic toys and then one day Zoe put one of her Mickey Mouse magnets on the fridge. I told her it wouldn’t stick but lo and behold it did. So now, my brand new Frigidaire double door belongs to Zoe and Miles. It’s their Play board. ...

Big Brain Puzzle Book Review/Donation and #Giveaway
THE BIG BRAIN PUZZLE BOOK is available wherever books are sold and will aid the Alzheimer’s Association in its mission to promote brain health. Alzheimer’s Association Presents The Big Brain Puzzle Book (Alzheimers Association)
Awareness helps with most diseases in identifying the onset and most diseases are easy to cure or you can slow down the effects if you catch them early. Knowing the 10 Warning signs of Alzheimer’s disease is vital to being diagnosed early and receiving the best help and care possible.
The Big Brain Puzzle Book is filled with brainteasers and puzzles created by internationally-syndicated puzzle writer, Terry Stickels. Terry is well known for his three columns: “Frame Games,” published in USA Weekend magazine; “Stickelers,” featured in more than 200 newspapers daily, and he is also a featured puzzle columnist for London’s largest newspaper, The Guardian.
You can actually decrease your chances of developing this progressive and fatal disease (Alzheimer’s) by simply increasing your brain activity with a puzzle book like The Big Brain Puzzle Book. But you can just enjoy it too and not even think of the help you are giving yourself by keeping your mind active. I love brainteasers. I just love them. I love Sudoku and just puzzles. I love mysteries and suspense and my brain is weird. I get a huge high by solving things. Even just how to pack a box, or suitcase is exciting to me.
The puzzle book is categorized into three progressive levels:
- Level 1 – Basic logic reasoning, visual and wordplay games will help kick start neurons. Frame games, like descrambling the letters “Hsilgne” to make “Shingle,” are found throughout this section.
- Level 2 – Readers are encouraged to work through more challenging puzzles with friends and family. This section incorporates out-of-the-box trivia questions like knowing which state besides Missouri is bordered by eight states.
- Level 3 – Complete higher level mathematical equations, wordplay and spatial and logical reasoning games. Advanced exercises, like finding the next fraction in a sequence and mind-bending word problems, come into play.
About the Alzheimer’s Association & Terry Stickels:
The Alzheimer’s Association is the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer care, support and research. Our mission is to eliminate Alzheimer’s disease through the advancement of research, to provide and enhance care and support for all affected, and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health. Our vision is a world without Alzheimer’s. For more information, visit http://www.alz.org/.
I was sent a copy of this book to review and I have looked at it and played with it in my head and now I am going to donate it. I think it will make a great Christmas Present and that’s why it has made my Christmas guide.
