Went hunting for consonants at two, not expecting to hit three-fifths of the solution. Lucky birdie!

What a lucky guess! I was just looking for WoFcons, as @SunUp likes to call them.
I think “Wheel of Fortune” consonants (=WoFcons) seems clearer and more descriptive than my previous shortening of “common consonants” to “comcons” (though a bit harder to type). For some reason I think I got it from @Wheelz but a thread search is inconclusive.
Remember this is the second thread. (And we will soon need a third!)

Kind of fun not to have all the typical letters.

Pretty sure I got lucky here. There were several ‘M’ words it could have been.

SANDY → Wow. OK, I’m seeing TARDY, BALDY, BAWDY. BALDY seems a little slangy. Have we had TARDY before? Seems familiar. Still, I’ll lead with it, and try BAWDY next.
TARDY → Fingers crossed for a birdie!

{C,D,L and slangy P & B]ADDY were also out there, as Scoredle patiently reminds me, so I was on the brink of a loss without knowing it. Scoredle, knowing better, plays more carefully and ends with a four.

READY (Wasn’t I just here? Might as well get xxDDY out of the way.)
CADDY (Hmm. They wouldn’t do DANDY the day after SANDY, would they? Or wouldn’t they?)
DANDY (I guess they wouldn’t. Well, I’m not desperate enough to try a xALDY word yet.)

Happy to save par after the slow start.
I was looking for a sleuth word and didn’t find one better than BAWDY, which allowed me to stay in hard mode. It was a good choice!
You may indeed have gotten it from me, but I don’t think I came up with it. Maybe, though; I dunno.
