I have trouble shutting down my brain. I do enjoy cross words, Scrabble, word games and number games but they keep my mind alert. I am not a video game fan or other electronic games. My new crochet/amigurumi project relaxes my mind but it hurts my hands and I am limited to how much I can do at one sitting. Adult Coloring Books overwhelm me. I don't know where to begin on the intricate patterns. But sometimes, I just want to shut down! Old Fashion Adult Dot-to-Dot books are wonderfully relaxing, mindless activity with no purpose except for that! I add shading and ink highlights to the renderings and move on to the next puzzle.
