I started playing Wordle when it first came out in ‘21 … and then stopped.
But I added the NYT app to my phone a few months ago and have picked it back up as a daily habit.
I’m good, and have a 100% solve rate… but I’ve never solved it in just one guess.
Until this morning.

Wordle 1,211 1/6
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Yay for me.
👍
.

.
Because it will make me happy, and I know you live for that.

My morning starts like this:
Up between 5:00 and 5:30am.
Feed cat. Feed birds. Feed woodchuck.
Cup of tea.
Quick check of online news, email and social media.
Then, my new obsession. The New York Times game app.
.
.
I used to do Wordle when it first came out, but not with any regularity. But since I discovered the free app?
.
.
These brain teasers are how I start my day.
(Except for the Sudoku. I’ve always hated math.)
More games are available if you purchase the full version, but these are enough for me.
So…
How do you start your day?
.
.
I didn’t, but now I do.
.
.
And damn, judging from my very first attempt?
I rock!
.

Considering I had no earthly idea what I was doing, I am proud of myself.
In case you don’t already know Wordle is the new game that’s taken over the internet. It’s web based, not an app… and you can only play once a day. So while I think it’s going to be addicting, there’s no danger of wasting countless hours staring at a screen.
The premise is simple. The daily puzzle is one 5 letter word and you have six chances to guess it. Everyone gets the same word so it’s become something of a world wide competition.
Sound simple? Trust me, it’s not.
.

While I lucked out on my first puzzle and guessed it in three, the next day I didn’t guess it all and was extremely frustrated. (I will henceforth hate the word knoll and it’s dastardly kn consonant combination.)
So Google “Wordle… A Daily Word Game” and give it a go.
And let us know how you did.
