Beware, the game is very addictive. If this is your first time, don't be intimidated, you’ll be solving them all within a few days. If you’re stumped, take a break and return to it.
PLEASE DO NOT post the answer in general comments, but DO post your time and how you made out.
You can certainly send your solution to my private reply, or if you need a hint for today’s Cryptogram ASK THE GROUP FOR HELP!

I have two granddaughters and their daughters staying with me. To say things are out of control would...
“I have two granddaughters and their daughters staying with me.”
Wait. You have two granddaughters, and their daughters?
So, you grand daughters and GREAT granddaughters staying with you? How old are you?
Come down. the TCG is supposed to sooth the nerves, not inflame them.
Grammar Nazi would say QOJ should be VH.
An episode of Happy Days comes to mind.
One of Fonzie’s requirements in a girl is that she must be untried.
