Word Games

Wordle has been sold to the New York Times so, if you want to play it now, you need to go to their website to find it.

Wordle was the first of these games I played and it keeps score in a way that makes you want to find the answer in as few rounds as possible.

Then Cheerful Monk introduced me to PuzzWord, an app for my iPhone. PuzzWord keeps score in a way that makes you want to guess as many words in a row as you can.

That made me start seeing the game differently so I gave myself two new guidelines:

  1. It’s OK to use all six rounds to figure out a word.
  2. It’s OK to enter a word you know is not correct to learn something helpful.

Using those two guidelines I got my win streak up to 50 words!

I’m so proud of myself. 🙂

Says who?

When that inner voice says I can’t do that or should not want that or any other negative thought I need to learn to respond, “Says who?”

Who taught me that?

Under what circumstances?

Does that fit me for who I am now?

Does that fit me for who I want to be?

Says who?

Diabolical

Apparently I really upset someone.

That person made appointments in my name with various professionals. I knew nothing about them. Until I started receiving bills with “no show” charges on them.

How do you fight that? How can you cancel appointments you don’t know have been made?

Fortunately, that all happened in last night’s dream.

Apparently, the diabolical mind is mine.

Smart Tech

Our friend Bill, who lives alone, recently slipped on some ice and fell. He was wearing an Apple Watch which recognized the fall and asked if Bill was OK. When no one responded the watch called 911. The EMTs found him unconscious. They took pictures of him lying in his spilled blood, loaded him into an ambulance, and took him to the hospital where remained unconscious for a few days. He is now recovering while having therapy several times a day.  He does not remember the fall. He does believe that, if he had not been wearing that watch, he would have frozen to death before anyone found him.

Yay for technology!
