Good Morning!

Seems to me that you have at least two other clear choices, other than finding a new barber:

1. You could follow your barber to Florida...

2. Stop getting your hair cut, and let it grow out...

(Pro-tip: think outside of the box!)

😂

Thank you for the very powerful message for this Good Friday.

And beyond all of that, we will soon celebrate Easter Sunday, for He has arisen!!

It was one of those with many possibilities... take it as a victory!

Princess is 2 today. But she still acts like a big puppy.

We have one that just turned 3 and still acts like a big puppy, and the guy that is 1.5 is definitely still like an even bigger puppy...

Then there is the 'real' puppy that is 4 months old...

The only mature family member is the little Papillon that is 8 years old... but it took him a while to get there...

🤣

Thanks, as we discussed in the past, there is certainly an element of luck involved with Wordle.

I am coming to think that getting lucky on row 2 is a real difference maker. (I use the strategy of never ignoring the results of row 1... so a fruitful row 2, often provides a good position to noodle from...)

Beautiful and stirring post commemorating the day the light went (temporarily) out of the world. Thank you.

If only one platypus-identifying person is made uncomfortable, we have to change our whole society.

I had 4 out of 5 letters right in the right place on the 2nd guess. But it took until 4 because there were so many words to be made with that remaining letter. I had at least one more in mind when I hit the right word.

True, one is definitely too many... what have we been thinking?!?

That’s the rub at times...

I have internal debates:

- should I just go with the first word that pops into my head...

or

- ponder it a bit more... ‘what word is more common?’

and so forth...

Sometimes I get lucky, other times, not so much...

Exactly the same thing with mine.

Thanks!

In my life, some days, just getting out of bed is a victory, so I’m happy with small things. I’m even happy with losses because there must be opposition in all things! ;o]

My wife said she used a guess to rule out letters.

One guy online recommends starting with a word that has 4 vowels in it. Here’s his list, although I didn’t know they were all words.

OUIJA
ADIEU
AUDIO
LOUIE
AULOI
AUREI
URAEI
OURIE
MIAOU

So maybe you can try one of them tomorrow.
