Sudoku...
During my last road trip I bought a $6 Sudoku book at a truck station. I've always loved number games and puzzles so Sudoku is right up my alley. While working the puzzles during the last half of our drive I could feel neglected neural pathways (to use a Star Trek term) slowly reviving to rise to the challenge of discovering patterns and eliminating options. Here it is less than a week later and my speed has increased doublefold. I feel like Sudoku is one more way to train my mind in the hope of not losing my mental acuity as I age.

Yes... in our paper the Sudoku puzzles start out easier and get harder through the week... So I've claimed the Monday puzzle. Stephanie does the rest of them...she is a number/puzzle person unlike her mom. I am slow, but I hope I'm doing my neural pathways some good! Someday maybe I'll graduate to Tuesday's puzzle!
I like Sudoku, but not too often or I start to find it tedious...but, yes, here's to preserving those neural networks...the one's that motherhood kills off :).
