Thanks for sharing your interests. I have always lived alone except for my companions-dogs. I, too, have done jigsaw puzzles and I have several awaiting me. I also belong to two book clubs in my area. I just turned 73. I also love history--I taught high school students American History and Government and now am looking into all the shows focusing on the nation's founding 250 years ago. I was doing physical therapy but the massages and red light therapy seemed to make my shin feel worse. Now I am wearing an Rx lidocaine patch which was prescribed by my neurologist. I still aspire to the goal that my physical therapy offers of "making it through a day without pain."

@arcuri24 history! I love most of it especially when I can, using DNA and WIKITREE and Ancestry.com trace my ancestors to places far and wide.
The Scots-Irish in the Appalachian Mountains, the founders of Virginia, and places south. I am a descendant of the original settlers in New England, New Amsterdam, and Long Island, NY
Found out my parents are distant cousins via the New York side and the Florida side. Crazy.
Learning migration paths, the whys and what nots answers a lot of questions.
European dynasties too.

I’ve been working on my family tree for almost 15 years.
It keeps me out of trouble!
