OY! Let me tell you this almost didn't happen on time! Someone came in my house, and it wasn't me and it wasn't the cats, and it wasn't the housekeeper (which is what I thought when I heard the noise from my bedroom then rolled over and went back to sleep!!) But the garage door was wide open and I know the difference between the sounds my cats make and whatever the hell that was. A couple of doors were open that normally are kept shut. Yes, my cats DO open doors. I have to tie them shut. Boogers. So I cannot say for sure whether or not I am completely on crack, but I bet the cop who checked the house out thinks I am. Nothing is missing that I can see so far, but it's not like the laptops were hiding, so...I can only wish I'd never seen that freaky ass movie Hider in the House when I was a younger person. Frikken horror movies. Frikken Lifetime. I love frikken Lifetime. LOL.

It was suggested it might be a fan. If that's true...KNOCK IT OFF!!! Ya scarin' me! Frankly, I don't think I'm that important!

So, locks are getting changed, ADT will add a few contacts to the garage, they will fix the USELESS motion detector and all will be well.

*breathe*

Oh! I caught the other stray! She's soooo cuuuuute!!!!!!!! So sweet!! I'm calling her Sweet Pea. I believe she was Nettles GF, so in for tests tomorrow. :( . She might be pregnant so we have to proceed with a little more caution this time. Even if the mom is positive for FIV, it's possible the kittens can be born FIV free. I think. Gotta research that.

I cut that damn collar off her. Oh my....oh when I tell you how furious I am about this...all I can say is if she DOES belong to someone, they best not knock on my door looking for her. FOUR inches. Thats all. Four inches around on a full grown adult female cat about 12 lbs. It wouldn't even fit Mal right now at six months old and 6.5 lbs!! Luckily, I can't see any sores or outer physical damage. But I sense her relief. My gosh, she has been all over me, rubbing, purring. Very vocal. So sweet.

But now it's time for business 😊

The TREASURE HUNT!!!

You have between now and Saturday night at 11:59 PM to find the answers to the following ten treasure hunt questions. You must submit your answers to [email protected] and you must put TREASURE HUNT #2 in the subject line! In the body of the email number 1 thru 10 and enter the corresponding answers to the presented questions. All of these answers are findable! That doesn't mean it will be easy...hehehe....I mean this is ME after all.

This week's prizes are...

Third Place Prize: A nylon bookcover that says "Curl up with a GOOD Demon" on it. I have colors to match every book cover from the series 😛 You can choose.

Second Place Prize: Another of the much coveted "I spend my nights with the Nightwalkers" nightshirts!

FIRST PLACE PRIZE: Yes, the one you all want, an ARC of DAMIEN!! Woohoo! All my goofy mistakes included. LOL. But quite readable. You will be the envy of all your friends. Muahahahaha!!

But first you gotta get every one of these right. One single answer wrong disqualifies you. Like last time, I will allow for one oops email. If you send in your answers and OOPS you realize you got one wrong, you can replace it. However, the new email now becomes your entry voiding the previous one EVEN IF THAT ONE TURNS OUT TO BE THE RIGHT ONE!
