I'm enjoying these words of the day
Just found one to describe what it sounds like here today:
(This word is similar to another cool whispering word: susurrous, which refers to whispering or rustling in general)
We have so much wind today it's not really whispering - more like gusting
I'm so tired but I'm going to make myself go start a loaf of bread (Probably did not get a restful sleep)
It really feels like Monday!

This is one of those words like buttress---it sounds like it would have something to do with butts, but it doesn't.
