Clue/Question: When he complained to his wife about how she ironed his shirt, he was – – –
Pre-Answer: Three Words – (8-letters) (3-letters) (4-letters)
Answer: PRESSING HIS LUCK
(Well, the answer letter layout certainly didn’t give this answer away. It was a masterpiece of a jumble. All of the clue words were old favorites, yet the jumbles all came up as new. None of them gave me any trouble though. How about you guys? The cartoon does a great job showing the put upon wife. The husband is a cad. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
Master piece indeed Unc!!! I got hung up on the answer. I was going for her in the middle word, and I had not brought down an I to my list of letter from the clue words, so I was muddled up everywhere I turned. I got the husb involved and he told me I was off on my her and that maybe I should check my letter again. I found my second I, went to HIS for the middle word. My saving grace was finding LUCK. Then it all came together!
How can people not get excited about the jumble!!?? And I love you pics for today….even the kid knew that was so wrong of the cad!! Tastes DEFEAT!!! OMG, too funny. LL
You are the best, LindaLee! — YUR
Great jumble for the final answer. Took me a while. I knew that the first word ended in ING and the second word was HIS or HER. I decided to go with HIS, but it still took a fair bit of time to come up with PRESSING. After that, the solution came easily. Very nicely done!
