What’s up with Wordle???

 

Okay so today as I've been learning every day seems to present just new Thrills and chills or whatever you want to call them just unexpected interesting and enjoyable things that are it's just become kind of a daily Adventure so I've said okay I'm not going to really plan anything and then therefore when I get up I'll just see what the Day brings and so each day is brought like I said just kind of new and fun different interesting things the other day my cousin called and she and I have been trying to get together now forweeks if not months and uh just the timing is never right we finally she called me uh before I gone out or whatever bottom line was we had the greatest conversation ever and it was just so great I feel like I've gotten to know my cousin now as an adult more than I ever knew her as children as we were growing up same thing with my sister and the same thing with my friend Dallas and other people in my life that mean so much to me I've just gotten to know them that much better but that's not what I'mhere to talk about uh you see in front of you wle and I was going to explain my obsession with Wordle and my obsession really is the fact that I just want to learn how to do editing and uh I've been practicing with this particular program V uh VN edit oops VN editor I believe and uh you know I tried several others including iMovie and different things and they just didn't do they had limitations and this VN editor just seems to do everything you'd want or everything I can learn and so I need topractice and the way I practice is by doing mtle every day and then uploading that to YouTube and each day I try to do something a little different and a little entertaining if possible and learn new things about how to use the editor program so I'm sitting here looking at the screen and you know I did win this one quickly with my method of using a do and then story and then with those letters being revealed the word Trail you know seemed to work and it it was it was correct so that's my method using those twowords to start then figuring it out from there and then terms of doing the video um you know sometimes I go into it with an idea that I want to try this or that but many times I just see what the puzzle re reveals what word it comes up with and then try to come up with a theme around that for the YouTube video now these things I don't know I I mean if I'm getting 30 views it's a lot I'm not getting a lot of views but like I said it's all about the learning process so that's really it I'm going to andthen the other part of this is the new puzzle comes out every night at 12:00 p.m. and the later it gets in the day and it's 11:25 you know it's more or less like my gosh I'm only 20 minutes away or whatever uh from doing the newest puzzle and so I tend to just stay up for that plus my biggest problem in life is insomnia and most of the time I deal with it pretty well I just stay up stay awake and listen to audible or you know play play uh wle when it comes out or play some chess or do whatever but Ijust am not able to lie down put my head down and go to sleep and the more I think about it the worse it is and or the worse it gets the harder it gets and I'm not alone I think the latest statistic I heard was one out of four people people have insomnia so you know we're in good company and you know the thing is if I had to get up and go to work in the morning or if I have if I do have to get up and go hike with somebody or do something then that's in my mind too so I do wake up very very early butthen many times I can drift back off to sleep in the morning unless I have to go to work or have to go you know somewhere like I said to go hiking or do something else so my point in saying that is is I do get enough sleep ultimately I do get enough sleep and if anything I'm putting you guys to sleep now just thinking about it but bottom line is that's how that's why I do Wordle every day is to learn how to use the editing program and then I solve the puzzle sometimes it takes a few minutes sometimes it takeslonger I do have to edit it down now that's another aspect of this if it takes me 10 minutes which is unlikely but I have to edit it down to about a minute especially if I'm going to use music because the copyright laws something about it if you use less than a minute somehow you can sneak in under the wire anything over a minute you definitely can't and I've been flagged several times for copyright infringements and it's not worth losing my hobby of doing YouTube videos you know to try to uh use somebody's musicwithout their permission so really all I'm trying to do is create a little diversion a little entertainment and like I said sometimes use a little music but that's why I have to edit it down to a minute and uh so that's why you only get a tiny clip and this one this morning was Trail which we say Happy Trails all the time hiking so it's not like we don't use this phrase all the time we do but somehow when I you know came up with that word I I I started s you thinking the song singing the song and I looked for Roy Rogers and sureenough everything you ever want to know is on YouTube so Roy Rogers and Dale Evans and Trigger and you know the theme song all of it was there and so I put the uh pictures in there and I put the music in there and that's how we came up with that theme for that day so I'm going to do this puzzle or we're going to do Wordle in about 20 minutes or so and then we'll see what that you know what word comes up and what kind of Creative Energy that motivates so that's my secret or that's my method and uhadios yall happy trails to you
