  1. Good Morning, Everyone…🪳🪰VERMIN ON THE MOUNT! 🪰🪳

    🎶 Thank you for being A FRIEND…Traveled down a road and back again…Your heart is true, you’re A PAL and a confidant…🎶 “Thank You For Being A Friend” – Andrew Gold 1978 https://tinyurl.com/2dk6st5e

    🪰🪳Our gal today is horrified, no one’d be overjoyed,
    She’s all alone her SAILOR husband having been deployed…
    Her FRONT room’s being eaten up, there’s termites in the walls,
    There’s no way she can YIELD to this…she needs to make some calls…
    A SPEEDY resolution’s what she needs so that it ends…
    Oh no…now there’s now a roach she sees…and they’ve become “PEST” FRIENDS!🪳🪰

    TBT? I don’t know what to say…ANT I’m not one to easily be at a loss for words…But just the idea of termites and roaches has me TICK to my stomach…Seriously, it really BUGS me…But I’ll give it my PEST shot…

    Today, we find poor DOLORes facing one of her greatest fears…Vermin. EncROACHing into her own home, STRIPPING the place to shreds. And she always sPRAYed something like this WOOD never happen…But here she is, having to deal with Clint EATSWOOD, a termite, and his PAL, METTO, a roach, getting ready to set up a TABLE for two….GNAWing all the while that they look like they intend to STICK around…And to make TATTERS worse, she’s all alone in this, with her husband away at sea…Poor DOLORes…I’m sure she’s dealing with some serious ANCHOR management right about now. She really needs to call HOST Busters…

    And as for our two home wreckers…Metto’s face shows the sawdust from the chunk of wood he’s dining on…(and yes, cockroach’s do SAW eat wood) and like the best buddy that he is, he’s brought mint-flavored toothpicks for Clint. Such a TEETH gesture….Oh, and by the way, that right there…David giving us “best buddies”? That gave the HOLE thing away, IMO. They’re PESTS, they’re buddies…they’re “PEST” FRIENDS…And they’re going to DOWN on that wall…

    So…There you have it Folks…Done. Have a good one. Be well, be kind, stay safe…and I’ll leave you with some termite humor…A termite, trying to break up the MAHOGANY of his night, decides to go out for some drinks. He walks into a bar, looks around and asks…”Hey, is the BARTENDER here”? …Give it a minute…🪳🪰🙋🏻‍♀️

  3. 🤷🏻‍♂️The SAILOR, knowing he’d have to YIELD to the wishes of the FRONT office…without the slightest chance of making any BEST FRIENDS with the lot of them…just crossed his fingers and hoped for a SPEEDY resolution…🤷🏻‍♂️

    🧍🏻‍♂️🧍🏻‍♂️🧍🏻‍♂️They studied for their road test, at school was where they met,
    Their names SPEEDY and SAILOR, and the third mate he was Bret…
    They hoped to get in FRONT of things, to guarantee they’d pass,
    Went over rules like YIIELD and park…they all did well in class…
    They bonded rather quickly, and through years there were no ends…
    Til this day the three still remain a trio of BEST FRIENDS! 🧍🏻‍♂️🧍🏻‍♂️🧍🏻‍♂️

  4. 🪳A roach and a termite hooked up,
    And found a wall perfect for sup…
    They gnawed through the wood,
    Ate as much as they could…
    DOLORes though needed backup! 🪰

    🤷🏻‍♀️Alone in the house with these pests,
    There’s no way that she’ll get any rest…
    And she screams out in fright,
    There’ll be no sleep tonight…
    While the vermin are holding a fest! 🤷🏻‍♀️

    🤦🏻‍♀️ She’s so fraught that she’s frozen in place,
    We can tell by the look on her face…
    That she’s worried to death,
    Barely catching her breath…
    They’ve invaded her personal space! 🤦🏻‍♀️

    🧏🏻‍♀️ Metto’s even brought in a dessert,
    Prompting Clint to so happily blurt…
    “You’re too good to me”,
    And they’re sharing such glee…
    How this problem will DOLORes skirt?🧏🏻‍♀️

    🧱 Pest control’s what she needs on the quick,
    ‘Cause right now she is feeling quite sick…
    While they’re eating her walls,
    She starts making some calls…
    All the while wishing the walls were brick! 🧱

    • An easy, breezy Monday to start the week, though a blind solve should have been in the works. I should have seen that second word appear…instead of the first word in italics. That said, unscramble anagrams, pulled out FRIENDS, and made the solve.

      And yep, I got your little joke…have a great start to the week.

  5. Here’s Monday ! A new week ! What a funny and fun jumble ! None of the anagrams made me YIELD ! I was in FRONT of all of them ! The SAILOR made them so SPEEDY ! The jumble did not bug me at all ! The cartoon was a little disturbing with the roach ! But the insects have always bugged me ! And they may be PEST FRIENDS , but they can stay away from me ! Very cute and fun jumble ! Angela , your song choice is spot-on ! I always liked that song ! I got a smile from your humor but I’m still shaking my head about the termite and Bartender , not sure I get it , but I always like to read your humor quips ! Glad to see you’re feeling better and back with the jumble family ! Everyone have a great non-bugging Monday !!!!!

    • Is the BAR TENDER? He’s a termite…he eats wood…The bar is wood…And Tks for your concern…🙋🏻‍♀️

  6. Yes, we know we’re a bit of a pest
    But we dine on the very best
    The prime of the pickings
    Leftovers and lickings
    We feel like a highly honoured guest!!

  7. Good morning. A good start for a new week. Not too much trouble today. Your song choice is the theme song for The Golden Girls opening credits, Enjoyable. Loved your posts Angela. Until tomorrow take care.

    • Good Morning, Paul. Yes, it is. And Tk you! Have a good one! 🙋🏻‍♀️

  8. After thinking yield was a misspelled eyelid, the cartoon was an obvious quick solve with busters followed by pest busters! Wishing all a good final week of June , which means 2023 will be half over!

        • Prof…Sorry it took me so long. I was somewhere where I couldn’t have a phone. Check today’s puzzle words, because the letters needed for the solve are not the same as what you’ve used. There’s no. B, no U, no 3rd S, no 2nd T… But there are 4 letters needed that you’re not showing. Look it over again…🙋🏻‍♀️

            • No worries, it happens. One night I used a word in all 3 write-ups that wasn’t one of the daily four. The only reason I could think of for it happening was because my S O and I were having a conversation and the word I used was one we mentioned a few times, so I guess it stuck in my head.. Luckily someone pointed it out to me in time for me to re-write everything…🤷🏻‍♀️
