| When I started playing online Scrabble (better known as WORDS WITH FRIENDS on Facebook), it was just me and my laptop. |
 |
| My sister-in-law came up with some rather unusual words in my games with her. When Jill played the word-bowyer, I couldn't stand it any longer. "How are you coming up with words like that?" I asked her. She told me. Thanks to amazon.com, I quickly acquired my own copy of The Official Scrabble Players Dictionary. |
 |
| Oh. I couldn't resist the Everything Scrabble book offered on the same amazon.com webpage. |
 |
| I quickly tired of paging through the Scrabble books to find the lists of two and three letter words, two to five letter words containing J, Q, X or Z and so on and so forth. |
 |
| I made copies of the word lists and put them in these plastic sleeves. Those of you who know me well probably aren't terribly surprised. I rarely do anything in moderation. If I'm going to do something, by golly, I go at it with a vengeance. I have twenty games going with nearly twenty different players. I've tried to add more but am informed that I'm not allowed more than twenty games at a time. Imagine that! What can I say? That's Shaddy for you. |

Oh my-my-my, now I can see why you haven't been blogging lately! Enjoy your passion dear, I'm sure it's quite addictive! Have FUN!
xo*
I want to know if you have a Scrabble app on a mobile device so you can be playing while you are taking part in a triathlon.
Are you doing NaNo this year as well? Writing about a crazed Scrabble fanatic/runner/gardener/writer? :)
I am a Scrabble Addict as well. I enjoyed your post.
LENORE: I'm addicted for sure! Thanks for stopping in, Lenore.
NATASHA: I definitely wouldn't go that far with my Scrabble passion even IF I had a mobile device!! I'm not that crazy.
Can you believe I haven't decided about NaNo yet??!! I really should do it to get me back to writing. It was quite an adventure last year; I had no plan when I started and yet I pulled off what I consider a halfway decent novel.
Thanks for stopping here.
SHARON: A new face!! I love it. It's great to meet another Scrabble addict.
Thanks for visiting.
ADDICTION, noun
being abnormally tolerant to and dependent on something that is phychologically habit-forming; an abnormally strong craving
Ahem, a "halfway decent novel"?????? It is a fantastic novel!!! OMG!
Now that I've cleared THAT up... :)
I love that you're loving Scrabble this much! Good for you, Shaddy! I think it's great and it sounds like a lot of fun. Enjoy!
GULLY: You got it!
SARIE: You are definitely the wind beneath my wings. You rock, my friend. Thanks a million for ALL of your never-ending support. You're one of the very best people in my life.
Backatcha Buddy!
I had to leave another comment to let you know you've inspired me to put Scrabble on my iPad. All I have to say is: I get it! I'm in trouble...
SARIE: Uh oh!!!
Shaddy, slowly, step away from the laptop and drop the Everything Scrabble book. LOL!!!!!
