Recovering from spinal fracture but just getting back into dressmaking and painting. Can only do short stints then rest or move around for a bit. Definitely takes my mind off things.
I enjoy doing jigsaws but since my spinal fractures I find I can only do it for a limited time. I now set a timer to stop myself getting carried away, I move around and come back to my jigsaw for another limited period.
If I ignore the timer I have backache for several hours. Sometimes it’s worth it!
Jigsaw puzzles on my Ipad are wonderful as I can sit comfortably without bending over and can pick up and put down whenever I have some spare time
