Good morning

Happy Friday, members! How's everyone doing this morning? Is it just me (Vella), or do the weeks seem to fly by quicker as we approach the year-end? I guess time flies when you're having fun—or busy! Phew, I think I might need to kick back and relax a bit this weekend. Who's with me? But enough about my plans, let’s get down to business. First, we have your third and final riddle of the week!

Everyone has me, and everyone needs me. When some people see me, they end up quite queasy. What am I?

Now, isn’t that a head-scratcher? If you think you have the answer, head over to the Riddle Masters thread here. If you get it correct, we'll give you a shout-out in tomorrow's newsletter!
