  1. Good Morning, Everyone…I hope this finds you well…
    🔁 WHEN YOU REALIZE THAT YOU’RE TENDON TO LOSE! 🔁

    🎶 It’s a TUG-OF-WAR…Though I know I mustn’t grumble. It’s a tug of war but I can’t let go…If I do YOU’LL TAKE A TUMBLE…And the whole thing is going to crumble…It’s a TUG-Of-WAR…🎶…”Tug-of-War” – Sir Paul McCartney 1982 https://tinyurl.com/2p9cm9n8

    🔁 Attempting to AMUSE themselves, all the while spouting DRIVEL,
    We see a game of Tug-Of-War, where foothold’s prone to swivel…
    It’s not a game of CUDDLE up, it’s the fittest who’ll survive,
    As strength is in the forefront…and without it you won’t thrive…
    But as is wont to happen…there’s a SPOIL in the tussle…
    When someone as he’s pulling stops.. saying “I’ve PULLED A MUSCLE”!🔁

    It didn’t take long to PULL this one off today…We’ve a classic game of Tug-Of-War and an easy, breezy win…Our guy was doing his best at PULLING his weight, until…well he PULLED A MUSCLE instead…and just couldn’t PULL it together after that…And now, it seems as if all hell may BREAK LOOSE…”Put your back into it”…indeed…Uh…FRAYED KNOT!

    So…There you have it, Folks…Done. Be well, be kind, stay safe…and it seems you don’t see all that many games of Tug-Of-War anymore…The good players just won’t come FORWARD! 🔁🙋🏻‍♀️

    I STAND WITH UKRAINE 💔🇺🇦
    …AND I STAND FOR REFORM IN AMERICA 💔🇺🇸

  2. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Not sure if most of what she’d read about behavior after one PULLED A MUSCLE amounted to anything more than DRIVEL, she hated to SPOIL her plans…but still decided to sit out the night, CUDDLE with her puppy and quietly AMUSE herself with a movie…🤷🏻‍♀️

    🤦🏻‍♀️ She wanted to AMUSE her kids, and not their fun to SPOIL,
    But out there in the blazing they all began to boil…
    Looks like the local weatherman’s report was just pure DRIVEL,
    She’s angry they came all this way…but still tries to be civil
    Her kids…she goes to CUDDLE them…but then midst all the bustle…
    She turns too fast and sure enough…Oh no! She’s PULLED A MUSCLE! 🤦🏻‍♀️

  3. Wow ! What a way to end a brilliant week of jumbles ! I had fun , except the anagrams went through a DRIVEL against me ! That didn’t SPOIL me though , the rest of the jumble kept me in an AMUSE jumble state of mind to CUDDLE with the jumble ! The first thing I thought of when you’re playing tug of war is a rope and pulling it ! We’ll PULLED was there and it takes some MUSCLE to do it , and you don’t want to have PULLED A MUSCLE ! Another great jumble ! Everyone have a great weekend !!!!!

  4. 🔁 While tugging and trying to cope,
    With each team at the end of their rope…
    Yes…intended that pun,
    It just adds to the fun…
    As we watch these guys with rope they grope! 🔁

    🤦🏻‍♂️ A pulled muscle and losing his grip,
    As a pain slowly moves to his hip…
    And his teammates get stressed,
    Still the rope though they wrest…
    Trying hard not to let it all slip! 🤦🏻‍♂️

    🤷🏻‍♂️Three on three and a rope they do tug,
    We see one team is acting quite smug…
    Thinking they’ve got this won,
    If that middle guy’s done…
    But who knows if that team’s grave is dug! 🤷🏻‍♂️

    💪🏻 Tug-Of-War…it’s takes a lot of brawn,
    And that line in the sand we see drawn…
    So it’s pull with your might,
    Try to win this rope fight…
    Or be subject to teasing and scorn! 💪🏻

    🤷🏻‍♂️Tough position to find himself in,
    With a pain behind this poor guy’s shin…
    But listen to the hack…
    Who says “Pull with your back”?
    What…just groan and take it on the chin? 🤷🏻‍♂️

  5. Good morning. Easy Peezy on both ends of jumble. It should have been a blind solve but I automatically put down the letters then looked at the picture. Until tomorrow stay well and stay safe.

  6. Good Saturday morning…I guess you could say it was a blind solve, since I blurted out the correct answer, but with a big question mark, essentially asking…”Is that really the correct answer?” Anyway, streamed through the anagrams and found I was right. Expertly chosen song today, Angela, and as apt as it could be. Don’t think the song makes it to the piano lounge circuit !! LOL

  7. You need every sinew and muscle
    To compete in that back and forth tussle
    You must be strong and be fit
    ‘Cos if injured you quit
    And the team no longer can hustle!

  8. I don’t know about other folks, but it seems with me the “solves’ are more likely to pop out when i find the consonant combos, like the sp- in “spoil” and dr- in “drivel” today. Typically I start with looking for consonant-vowel-consonent clusters. But the English language being what it is, that doesn’t always yield results. Another thing I look for is doubled consonants, as in today’s “cuddle,” because they frequently appear in the middle of words.
