It was my plight the past week, couldn't seem to get anything better than 4. Of course, being sick for a few days didn't help.

I'm of course tickled if I get a 2 or 3, but happy to solve at all especially on a tricky word. This is my brain exercise.

Hope you're feeling better.

Late to the party today.

Don't know how I got it at all today. Yesterday was a very busy day with family over for the New Year's Day feast. Ham, cabbage, black eyed peas, etc. And of course I did 95% of the cooking. Two toddlers running around being toddlers. But I loved every minute of it!

Happy Monday, ya'll!
