  1. Good Morning, Everyone…
    👏🏻👏🏻WHEN LENDING A HAND DESERVES GETTING A HAND 👏🏻👏🏻

    🎶 I AIN’T AS GOOD AS I ONCE WAS …My how THE YEARS HAVE FLOWN …But there was a time BACK IN MY PRIME when I could really hold my own… I ain’t as good as I once was, but I’m as good once as I ever was…🎶 …”As Good As I Once Was” – Toby Keith 2005 https://tinyurl.com/y4amxhpp

    👏🏻👏🏻This Cowboy that we’re seeing, takes a sweet GENTLE approach,
    A FAMILY man, he understands…not looking to encroach…
    The woman could use help he sees…time does DELETE one’s strength,
    One needs to learn to SWITCH one’s ways to injury prevent…
    (No place here to use UNCLOG…and TYRANT a ditto,
    Both words in this, a touching scene, won’t fit…so they must go)…
    The kind words of our Gentleman… music to Arlean’s ears…
    Somethings become much harder as one’s GETTING ON IN YEARS…👏🏻👏🏻

    While all our words today have been in Jumble play before, one of the Early Birds saw Elegant instead of Gentle…to which he was told NEIGH, NEIGH by the others…And another was told to take his BLINDERS off when he blinked at Tyrant…But I hate when they start HORSEing around and RAISEing their voices with one another… so I had to REIN them all in…For some reason Sundays always seem to get out of HAND…

    So…Today we find ourselves at what is probably the Jumble Ranch…I’m figuring Jeff just didn’t GET around to pencilling that in. And we see our damsel in distress, Arlean, needing a hand GETTING ON her horse. Unfortunately she’s been heard to say…”AR LEAN on others more and more as the YEARS go by…in my younger days there was no problem”…But, HAY…it’s underSTABLEable…and one needn’t GET UP ON A HIGH HORSE https://tinyurl.com/588naa3a about it. Let’s face it, you can’t BUCK Mother Nature…and while some say that there’s a prize that comes with aging, all too often it’s aTROPHY…But luckily for Arlean, there’s a kind Ranch HAND who sees her needing some help…since she’s GETTING ON IN YEARS, https://tinyurl.com/w4cm27u2 and he’s right there to ensure she’s not SADDLEd with worry…And today, with “older” = YEARS and “into her saddle” = GETTING ON in our question…plus our spot ON drawing…this solve was another RUN AWAY…

    So…There you have it Folks…Done. Have a good one. Be well, be kind, stay safe…And on second thought maybe we’re not at the Jumble Ranch after all. If the rest of the horseback riders are in the same age group, the place might just be called…PASTURE PRIME…🎤 🙋🏻‍♀️

    PRAYERS FOR ALL …🙏🏻

  3. 🗣️Despite the building GETTING ON IN YEARS, the TYRANT of a landlord did nothing to help the FAMILY living there, fully aware that he needed to SWITCH a pipe to avoid them having to constantly UNCLOG a drain…so they finally told him off…in not so GENTLE terms…that can’t be repeated here lest a DELETE button be put in place! 🗣️

    👍🏻 The FAMILY decided it was time to SWITCH things ‘round,
    UNCLOG old ways, DELETE habits…new ones had to be found…
    They went at it like TYRANTs…not GENTLE their approach,
    They talked it over thoroughly before each step they’d broach
    New attitudes were taken on, agreed to by all peers…
    The time was right since everyone was GETTING ON IN YEARS …👍🏻

  4. 🖐🏻We see Arlean is getting a hand,
    From a very astute and kind man…
    Sweet to offer a lift,
    Lest the horse go adrift…
    And Arleen’s day not going as planned…🖐🏻

    🤷🏻‍♀️Growing older something we all face,
    And sometimes it’s hard keeping up pace…
    The alternative though,
    Something else we all know…
    Better old age the number we chase…🤷🏻‍♀️

    🐎Mounting horses not an easy task,
    When your better days lie in the past…
    So when needing a boost,
    So that aches be reduced?
    Yes, the smart thing is always to ask…🐎

    ❤️This here Cowboy is definitely kind,
    When he sees that Arlean’s in a bind…
    He comes through in the clutch,
    With help that’s needed much…
    It’s a gesture she’s happy to find…❤️

    👍🏻 Bottom line getting on in one’s years,
    Shouldn’t leave one a victim of fears…
    And our Cowboy has shown,
    There’s help when one’s alone…
    And despite age we all remain peers…👍🏻

  5. Speaking of riding horses along a path , this one was off the beaten trail ! A lot of letters ! I really tried , but after a while I just said N a a a a a ! But an old song came to me to match the older rider 🎵 I got spurs that jingle jangle jingle as we go riding merrily along ! 🎵 that lighten it up a bit ! All the anagrams were there for me , except I did have to look up TYRANT ! But it was a fun Sunday jumble ! I just think after a week of jumble thinking , the one that requires a lot of thinking is a challenge ! Everyone have a great Sunday Funday !!!!!

  6. Getting on and off a horse
    Is no easy task of course
    Can’t always do it alone
    Don’t want to be thrown
    So sometimes you have to outsource!

  8. There was no blind solve this morning, most probably because I couldn’t think of the correct ING word…and the two, 2 letter words to follow. Therefore, speedily solved the anagrams and started looking for that elusive ING word. Must admit, I was about ready to give up, but finally saw GETTING….and that was the spark needed to finish up. Whew !!! Have a great Sunday Funday…and hope it’s cool where you are…or at least cooler. See you Monday morning.

  9. Wipeout Sunday:
    First confused gentle with a misspelled tangle , then as usual with that many letters, couldn’t solve the cartoon either. At least I solved the kids Jumble, thanks for including it.
    Well tomorrow’s another day. As I said yesterday, California stay safe.

  10. The answer, getting on in years, does not correspond to the words offered in the solution

  11. Good morning. Had trouble with three of the words but I would not give up and finally was able to solve them all. It’s usually the same thing after you get them you wonder why it took so long because it looks so easy. On the cartoon I was stuck on a two letter word and finally. realized it was because I put a U down instead of another N. Once I double and triple checked all my letters I was able to finish it. Really enjoyed your song video Angela. Until tomorrow take care.

    • Sorry, Paul, but we here have nothing to do with the publication of the Jumble. We just do commentary on it. You’ll have to address the issue with your paper. If you look on the cartoon, there’s a date..that’ll tell you what day’s puzzle it is. Whatever you do, if it’s tomorrow’s please don’t divulge any of the words, which would ruin it for the other readers. 🙋🏻‍♀️
