I am still about trying to do things differently. The catch is that sometimes I do things on other days of the week, and then I can’t really say that it is a Shake It Up Thursday, because it may be a Shake It Up Tuesday instead. 🙂

One thing I have been doing differently is doing the Sudoku instead of the Jumble in the newspaper. You might think that is not a big deal, because how hard can the Sudoku be… But it is different, and sometimes challenging. I usually don’t finish it in one sitting, but I generally do get it done.

A couple of years ago on Thanksgiving I made a different cranberry sauce — it was a relish instead of cranberry sauce, and I was informed by my kids that does not really count for shaking things up. Cranberries are still cranberries…….

We did have a delicious and traditional Thanksgiving meal today. Sometimes things are the same and traditional for a reason.

So in the meantime, continue to do something different to shake up your routine. It is good for the brain.
