Words With Friends Has Me Hostage To Their Brutal Ads Between Moves
I figured I might be able to pay something like a palatable $5 for a lifetime of premium no advertisements between moves but after checking, it’s $9.99 a month to get rid of the ads.
These aren’t ads you can simply scroll past. These are ads that you have to sit through and take forever.
I can’t justify it. Brutal.

Hi Joey,
Would you consider posting the following call for kindness on Good Morning Gloucester.
Thank you for your daily blog, in keep us informed and connected.
A CALL FOR AN ACT OF KINDNESS
Would you consider donate your stimulus check to others in greater need.
Some of us received our government checks this week. Unfortunately many families in needs will not receive one or will have two wait a long time to access this money.
There are families around us who cannot put food on the table or are at the verge of losing their house.
There are agencies who could use the extra cash to reach out to those in need.
We can help by passing the word around and donate.
A few suggested agencies:
Massachusetts COVID-19 Relief Fund will serve essential frontline workers and vulnerable populations across the state facing homelessness, food insecurity and loss of critical services as a result of the COVID-19 public health crisis.
- The Gloucester “Open Door” feeds the hungry on Cape Ann
- www.foodpantry.org
Action Inc. has launched the Cape Ann Emergency Relief Fund to help hourly workers impacted by the COVID-19 crisis struggling with lost income.
Wellspring House is the first line of support for more than 500 families on Cape Ann and across the North Shore every year.

Spring Allergies ~
Spring is springing and so are allergies!
Nobody wants to hear this, but diet definitely does make a difference when you’re suffering from allergies.
Most people suffer from Kapha type (phlegm) of allergy symptoms – sinus congestion, sneezing, lung congestion, watery eyes, fatigue, lethargy, mental fogginess. So it’s important during allergy season, and even for several weeks prior, to start a Kapha reducing diet. This means cutting out or drastically reducing dairy products, wheat, fried foods, and cold or iced drinks. During this time you want to add warming spices like ginger, drying grains like rye and barley, and lots of fresh vegetables including leafy greens.
Ayurveda Wellness Healing, LLC is available to help you through the spring allergy season just message us to book your virtual appointment.

What are your silver linings? Mine is more quality time with Thatch. He truly enjoys long car drives, bike rides, and walks. Finn prefers his video games right now. One of two isn’t bad.
There’s a house in Rockport that we have thought maybe belonged to Adam Sandler for years….. met the owner the other day. Turns out he’s not Adam Sandler…. and he may not love people driving by looking for Adam.
