After two guesses, I only had one word on my scratch list, for a nice 3 today.

So glad you came in under the wire. I don't like wandering Wordles either, so I normally stick to two-start words to eliminate common letters. A 3 for me today.

Excellent. Enjoy for a day because who knows what devious Wordle springs forth tomorrow.
November 27, 2025 at 4:34 PM
Hmm! Strangely familiar. Today's word was in my recent scratchpad. I still got a 4 though as there were other options.

Happy Thanksgiving! I probably won't play tomorrow until late after pie and the dishes are done.

My mom made the best yeast rolls. We would eat the feast at around 1-2pm, sometimes 20+ mostly kids, go outside after to play football, then have cold turkey sliders on those rolls at 6 or 7, with another piece of pie.

A 3 for me. Great to see so many 2s & 3s today.

A 3 today. I had 3 words after the second guess and chose the right one. It doesn't always happen this way. My two-starter word system cuts down on the 5s by eliminating high use letters.

A 3 again today making this a pretty good weekend.

Oops, a 3 yesterday. Y'all liked it with the obvious typo.
November 23, 2025 at 3:50 PM
Nice one Donna! A 2 for me. The help I got after two guesses was more about what letters were eliminated, resulting in my only seeing two words possible. Yay for an easier Saturday Wordle.

Quash that thought. Thursday Night Amazon Prime is the only game I get in 4K. The rich detail is worth watching no matter which teams play. While I have the 4K Plus on YouTube, and NFL Sunday Ticket, the network games don't come that way.
November 21, 2025 at 3:51 PM
A 4 for me. After two guesses, I thought this might be the word, but I went with another more everyday word as my third guess. Oh well.

I'm going to add it behind:
Eve of Destruction - Barry McGuire
Stop Children What's That Sound - Buffalo Springfield
Ohio - CSNY
Protest songs that are as relevant today as they were 50+ years ago.

I've been curating a lifetime playlist from the 60s to today of my most meaningful & fun songs from every era. I had been considering this song and will add it today while fresh on my mind. Songs are grouped and segued by similar themes, genres or styles.
November 20, 2025 at 6:28 PM
One of my favorite songs from college days. I still have it on my larger phone playlist and crank it up and sing along if I am driving alone.
November 20, 2025 at 6:28 PM
A 4 today that could just as easily been a 6. Second devious trap day in a row. What will Friday bring?

"Intimate and embarrassing" simply means corruption in this case. Release the emails.
November 19, 2025 at 6:23 PM
A 5 today, my last 5 was over a month ago. Just too many possibilities after the 2nd guess but eliminated most after the 4th guess. Onward to better Wordle days.

A 3 today, because I skipped my 2nd starter word (it would have been all blank) and worked other possibilities, while not falling into the mini trap as others have done.

I don't believe that MBS would have killed an American citizen, Khashoggi, without a nod from Trump, through Kushner, that the US would not pursue any investigation or hold MBS to account. Hence the $2B to Kushner.

I had the same chance at 3 but missed the last letter like you.
