Crossword puzzles

I like to work crossword puzzles. I think it is suppose to keep your brain alert but I just like to do them. The KC Star puzzles are good as they are not too hard. Now in the want ad section they have the New York Puzzles which I can generally do on Monday and Tuesday. Then they get too hard. My son who lives in Lawrence has two neighbors. One on each side of his house. The one on the west side can do them everyday. Even Sundays. The neighbor on the east side has a grandfather who has put out a great dictionary of names and etc which are great help when you do puzzles. One of my saddest losses was when my dog was new at my house and he chewed that book up. They have since given me a new one which I have a bookmark in with Vick's vaporub on it. My dog does not like Vicks. My daughter Susan can do the New York puzzle also. I don't know if on Sundays but some days of the week. I think my daughter Cindy can do them also. I use dictionaries made for crossword people. Buster chewed them up also. They too will have to be replaced with a new book.
