Lent, but not Lenten. And myelin?
I'm not surprised at "Lenten" since it's derived from the proper noun, Lent. As for myelin, that's a word I've heard of, as in "myelin sheath" but nonetheless missed it yesterday.
just made it to QB very doable today so I'm betting I won't be the only one.

Was very proud of myself for getting myelin! And yes, “myelin sheath” is ingrained.
I try to get to Genius every day before I look at any hints at all. And then the number of words left determines if I use the Buddy. Today I had 11 left after Genius, so I went to the buddy. I'm pretty sure I'm going to come up short by two anyway. There's at least one word that I'm pretty sure I have never in my life seen.

OK, I’m at QB-2. Gonna give up based on this. Will be interesting to see what the two are.

I missed unceded. Hmph.

QB-1 yesterday. Missed “wanna.”
QB today!
congrats yesterday I also missed "wanna" but also missed some of the compound words
today, I'm way short of QB ...QB -6 to be precise ... and don't think I'll get any closer than that
eta: managed to find another two but not looking good at QB -4
Today is one of those days where I'm happy to have made it to Genius plus a handful. Not worth pursuing it any further at QB -6. I'm done for today.

Same here. No words found since early this morning, despite going back more than a few times.

Just got QB!
happy for you but not likely to be joining you...currently QB -4 and just not seeing any more
I got QB with hints. I'm almost certain I would have got "bellboy" and "eely" on my own (eely is a quintessential SB word). Gotta say that "loblolly" was probably not coming without hints.

I remember that the Bee uses loblolly, otherwise I would not have gotten it either.
Got QB with hints. Frankly I shoukd have been able to get it without. No weird words today.
I'm one short without hints. Hoping I can conjure the magic of posting that here.

I'm one short too and just not seeing that last missing word
8 letters? If so, I have a guess what it is.

nope, it's 6 letters.
Lent, but not Lenten. And myelin?
