Happy Sunday!  How’s it going this week?

Well, this week, the first & most important thing I AM HAPPY about is that I’ve finished Top Secret Project #2!  It’s not turned in yet, & I’m still working on the proofing/polishing part of the process, but the writing-writing is done. :may14

I’m very excited about this one; I just love the hero & heroine, the great sexual tension between them, the story itself…  And I AM HAPPY that my editor for the project is being so sweet & patient with me.  You wouldn’t think it would take so long to complete something that’s such a short length, but by God this one sure has! :may24

I AM HAPPY, too, that The Kittehs got a brand new cat tree to enjoy on the back porch.  A few weeks ago, I moved things around & they’ve been without for a while.  But I found a great new one I knew they’d love & bought it immediately…I just didn’t have a way to get it home. :may4

Which leads me to…

I AM  HAPPY that I have a couple of wonderful friends who were willing to use their truck to pick up the cat tree for me.  If they hadn’t been, I don’t know what I would have done!  Strap it to my back & drag it home, maybe.  Or take it apart so it would fit inside the car in pieces. :may33

And finally, I AM HAPPY the The Kittehs do, in fact, loooooove their new cat tree!  It didn’t take them five minutes to discover it & now they’re all basking & playing & battling over the perches.  It also fits just about perfectly where I wanted it.  Maybe a bit of a tight squeeze, but it’ll do, pig, it’ll do.  Yay! :may35

Your turn. :may8

What are you happy about or thankful for this week that you’d like the share with the rest of The Darlings? :may9
