Clue/Question: When her boyfriend broke up with her during their morning walk, she . . .
Answer: TOOK IT IN STRIDE
(I think that there’s a lot to like in this Jumble. Jeff’s cartoon sets it up very nicely! The layout of the four blank answer words made solving it a little easier than I thought it would. And, that’s a good thing because I really needed the answer, in order to back into one of the clue words! I was having a very difficult time in solving “tedium”. I wrote out 15 various combinations of those letters, none of them even coming close to “tedium”. It was only through solving the answer that I realized I needed a “T” and an “I”. I had tried a few combinations of letters starting with “I”, and a couple with “T”, but I figured that it had to start with “T” this time! No new clue words, today. And, a very good answer letter layout. That’s about it, guys. Be well and do good!) — YUR

UNC- Had to back into tedium as well and had to look up meaning. LOVE the pic at least we won the first half.. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday. Wimpy
Didn’t have time yesterday to even look at the paper. Didn’t buzz right through this one, and had to play with several of the words, but got it! Yea!
@ Wimpy,
I don’t know who I’m madder at, the offensive coordinator or the defensive coordinator. They both suck, as far as I’m concerned.
@ Linda,
Glad to hear it, lady!
