Wishing you and yours a healthy, safe and Merry Christmas. On to tomorrow!
POISE
Pun Play: SENSE you don’t have any plans, why don’t we go out?

My Gameplay: TRADE, SMILE, POISE
With the I and E in their respective places by the second guess, it wasn’t hard for me to think of the answer. It was a POISE of cake! Wishing you all a joyous and safe Christmas Eve. On to tomorrow!
AORTA
Pun Play: Why don’t you CHEST stay here for the night?

My Gameplay: PLACE, NIGHT, WARTY, AORTA
Our AORTA is a large, cane-shaped vessel that delivers oxygen-rich blood to our bodies. The AORTA starts in the lower-left part of the heart and passes through the chest and abdomen. Along the way, blood vessels branch off, extending to organs and supporting tissue. TGIF everyone! On to tomorrow!
EXCEL
Pun Play: I’ll serve ACHIEVE plate and crackers as an appetizer.

My Gameplay: SLATE, LEMON, CHIRP, EXCEL
The X and double E’s required some careful thinking this morning. If I was in a rush, I don’t think I would’ve solved it as easily as I did as when I had some spare time. Have a tantalizing Thursday everyone. On to tomorrow!
LUNAR
Pun Play: Some people can CRATER problem out of anything!

My Gameplay: SLATE, CRAWL, GUIDE, RURAL, LUNAR
I had quite a struggle discovering the placement of letters this morning. There wasn’t much fuel in the tank when it came to thinking of playable words from the letters that remained so I went roque and started with fresh words. Two guesses after that, the deed was done. Happy Humpday everyone. And a BIG HaPpY bIrThDaY to my favorite nephew, Aidan, who turns 19 today!!! On to tomorrow!
THIRD
Pun Play: Maybe the Wordle will stump me some ORDER time!

My Gameplay: TALES, TOPIC, THIGH, THINK, THIRD
It’s ironic how I solved the puzzle on my THIRD THI- guess. I probably couldn’t do it again if I TRI-ed. Have a terrific Tuesday everyone. On to tomorrow!
SLATE
Pun Play: I’ll TILE the numbers for you if you say them to me slowly.

My Gameplay: BLINK, ALOFT, PLATS, SLATE
I’m quite upset as SLATE is right near the top on my opening guess list and I didn’t play it this mornin. Arrrrrggggghhhhhhhh!!! Oh well. Happy Monday everyone. On to tomorrow!
TAPER
Pun Play: I can SMALLER rat from a mile away!

My Gameplay: TALES, TAPER
If I didn’t end up solving it in two guesses, I’d have been really upset with myself. But such is not the case and my week of Wordle wordplay will end on a high note. Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone. On to tomorrow!
CHORD
Pun Play: Be sure to take STRUM extra so you’re not hungry later.

My Gameplay: GRAPE, WORTH, CHORD
This was one of those wild guesses that actually worked out in my favor. A great way to start the weekend. May you all have a pleasant and safe one. On to tomorrow!
