Hello fans. Some of you are growling that you haven’t heard from me lately. I know Judy posts these photos that depict that I am like all my other cat cousins.
Yes that’s me after a
long day on the road.
And yes, I know. That was after a long day at the
computer.
Judy monitors my mail and finds these photos my friends send to me. I know none of these show how my feline friends are hard working, I want to explain and defend my friends. I met Tallahassee Tabby when her mom PEGGY KASSEES attended the 2013 Santa Barbara Writers Conference. T.T., that’s what I call Tallahassee Tabby, Sent me this photo after she and Peggy returned to Tallahassee, Florida from that hectic conference in California. T.T. told me her mom, who is president of the Tallahassee Writers Association, was busy that day writing an article for the club.
This is my friend from New Orleans, Louisiana. This is a selfie he took on Bourbon Street after last year’s Mardi gras. The only explanation I have: He says he NEVER overdoes it like he did last year.
I’m trying to explain to you, my fans,
that pictures are deceiving. Take a look at the following photos and I'm sure you'll be convinced, I am not a lazy cat.
I've had to wear many hats lately. The first hat, my CNA Nursing Association hat. Judy was sick for almost three days. . Nothing serious, just a very bad cold. Remember when Judy was sick in the emergency room in Deming, New Mexico? The nurses there gave me honorary membership for taking such great care of my mom.

First she was hot then she was cold, then she was hot and then she was cold. When I was snuggled up in the covers to keep her warm, she kicked them and me off the bed. "I'm hot." she complained, When I wanted to entertain her, she pulled the bedsheets over her head and ignored me I'm sure if she had played peek-a-boo with me she would have felt better. Mom always complains I sleep too much, but now I understand how boring that can be.
On the second day, due to my excellent care, she began feeling better. I found old movies on AMC, "Passage To India" and "Dr. Zhivago" and the day passed pleasantly.
I periodically had to take off my nursing hat and replace it with my chef's hat. Although opening a can of Chicken Noodle soup is in no way a demonstration of my culinary abilities, that was all she requested. I made sure she drank lots of water too.
Last week, before Judy fell sick, we both had been freaked out because a friend Judy walks
with, who lives four houses down,
was a victim of a home invasion robbery. Luckily the two men only knocked
the woman to the floor while they stole her jewelry. I’m sorry if you disagree, but
if I had been on duty, they'd be calling the coroner, not 911.
Lucky for us, Judy had already signed up for firearms training at Front sight Firearms Training Institute in Pahrump, Nevada.Unfortunately, I had to cancel Judy’s first class until she felt better. So now I have put on my beanie hat and taken over home security.

With the book near completion, Judy is looking at cover designs as well as, what we call in the book business, beta readers. Beta
readers read the manuscript not just for grammar accuracy, which of course is
important, but also to examine the structure and believability of the story. INVISIBLE HEROES is about a puppy growing up to become a service dog for an Marine veteran coming home from Iraq who struggles with post traumatic stress disorder.
In this case, a Marine who served in Iraq would be an excellent beta reader as well as some one who trains dogs for service work. Judy and I are processing applications, so if you know of someone, please reply in the comment section.

The two guys pictured above mentioned an interest but, really? I know they're the mascots for The Marine Corps but ...really?
Judy's feeling much better thanks to my excellent care taking. Be sure to click on the link below to reach her blog for updates to her schedule.
