Happy New Year + Updates!

Added 2023-01-03 18:22:06 +0000 UTC

Hi everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and new year. Can you believe it’s already time to get back to work? I am truly buried under all the emails I received and ignored over the past two weeks.

I am taking this week to plan my content calendar and organize the puzzle studio, and then I’m going to start filming next week and hopefully post my first video of the year on January 15th.

And then, I don’t remember if I’ve told you guys on here or not, but I am officially going to the St. Paul Winter Carnival Puzzle Contest! That will be on January 28th, if you’re in the area and want to come watch. This competition is only teams, not individual or pairs events. I’m not planning on bringing a cameraperson like I did at Nationals, but I will have my phone to film everything I see and make a casual video about it. If you want to learn more about this event, there is a documentary called Wicker Kittens which you can watch for free on the streaming site Tubi.

I will also be at a puzzle competition in Orange County on February 4th. (This one is a pairs event and my puzzle partner and I will be competing against Tammy and Yvonne, among other top puzzlers!) You can join the South OC Puzzle Exchange Facebook group for all the info on that one.

Since I’m still getting back into the swing of filming, I thought I would unearth another full puzzle solve video from the archives today. This one is a 500 piece Eeboo puzzle that I reviewed very early on in the channel. Here is the exclusive link to the full solve:

And to the review video if you want a little throwback:

Thank you again for all of your support, and I’ll be back soon with my first new video of the year!
