AARP Rewards Community Learning & Earning Contest August 2022

I'm learning Russian through the use of an audio program.  Each lesson is about 30 minutes which is how long it takes me to get ready for work each day.  

I still work part-time in retail so I get social connections. I do puzzles, quizzes, games daily to keep my brain active. I do streching exercises to keep my body flexible.

I read, do AARPs online games, walk, and keep in touch with family and friends to keep my mind occupied and learning. 

I do the AARP Games daily crosswords and solitaire.  I also do crosswords with paper and pencil.

I play alot of timed games on my phone.  I am also Tech savvy so I'm always doing craft stuff on my computer.  I still work as a computer technician. I also create funeral slide shows and obituaries.

I like to do the puzzles in the local newspaper every day and watch and play along with Jeopardy

I like to do spelling and word games to keep my mind active.

I like to keep making quilts.  It is like putting a puzzle together in many cases.  It keeps my brain active and also my creativity is stimulated.

After retiring a few months ago, I started painting rocks and leaving them around the neighborhood for others to find and enjoy. I haven't painted since my last art class 52 years ago, but I'm loving it and so are my neighbors when they eventually figure out who left them.

I play games on the computer such as mahjong, free cell, solitaire and pyramid, some of which are timed.  I also do puzzles on the computer and word games. I also enjoy reading.
