I only started playing in mid-January, and I am hooked. Stressing out as I enter a final (6th) guess has created a bit of anxiety. Of course, the anxiety is short-lived and overshadowed by the fun of sharing scores daily with friends and family. It's a great way for us to "connect". But who knew, it could actually save you?

That's a cool story.

By the way, I'm hooked on Wordle (https://www.powerlanguage.co.uk/wordle/) too.

Due to the NYT mini crossword puzzle, it's Spelling Bee game, and Wordle, I'm becoming a bit of a couch potato every morning.

Sudoku too.

I don’t have a basement, do I still need Wordle?

Sudoku too.

I always thought you were good at either words or numbers, not both. My husband is brilliant with numbers and I am good with words, but he is awful with words and I am not so good with numbers.

There is an actual memory test where you either spell backwords or count backward. He can not spell backward and I cannot count backword. The test is actually count backward from 100 in 7s. He flew through that, I had to use all ten fingers and toes and I still could not get there. :ohdear:

It's fun! The practice site I found helped me relax a bit!

Not only do I play wordle, but I also play NERDLE. It's a math one. Pretty challenging. Pemdas is used., only the mdas( multiplication, division, addition and subtraction) I am also hooked on sudoku.
