Honestly, I was clueless at first and started making random words on the letter grids. In the process, I found BEST. It turned out to be a theme word. I realized that the theme was talking about closing statements or phrases. That realization helped me find ALWAYS and SINCERELY at the bottom of the board.
Next, I found THANKS running vertically in the leftmost column. Right at the top-middle, I found CHEERS. Diagonal to it was REGARDS, and next I found SIGNINGOFF as the Spangram for today.
After last day’s blunder of a game, it feels good to have not used a hint today. With that, I’m signing off for the day!
