Wordle #178

!! NOTE: I’m having internet connectivity issues, which means my connection is slower than treacle – so I’ve disabled pingbacks – just leave your links as your post’s URL in the comments, and in Mr. Linky. And because each site can take at least 10 minutes to load, if not longer, I can’t wait and see, much less comment or “like” with any sense of sanity. So apologies all around, but you will have to read and share your thoughts with each other. 

And now, back to Monday’s wordling. Good luck.

Scrape the Monday blahs away with this week’s wordle 🙂

12 challenging words. Use at least 10 to create a poem, a short story, some flash fiction etc. The words can appear in alternate form and in any order. You have a week to create.

Please include the tags MLMM or Mindlovemisery’s Menagerie and wordle in your posts.

Create your pingbacks and links and link to Mr. Linky because he’s such a swell linkster.
