I find myself always waiting for something whenever I’m running errands, whether it’s the guy in front of me washing his monster truck or the 10 sneezing, runny-nose patients waiting to see the same doctor – mine. I try to use this time to not get bent out of shape so I’ll pull out a little chick lit (book) or engage in some mindless text messaging, though neither really relax me. That’s why when I came across Pocket Posh puzzle books the other day, published by Andrews McMeel,I decided that whenever I’m out and about I’ll refer to a puzzle book and solve a few puzzle logic games while I wait. Those of you who are into design and little details may like these for your handbag, I know I do.
Recent studies suggest that giving our gray matter a regular workout can help maintain brain function, so a puzzle or two is a good thing and since these books are small and stylish, I can tuck one in my handbag before running out for errands. Logic and Word Search are my favorites and priced at $7.99 each, you can also pick up Sudoku and Crosswords, too.
Have a lovely weekend everyone, see you on Monday!

This is great!! They are only $7.99 each, I just bought myself the crossword one and a bunch of others for gifts. Thanks for this lead.
