Kim's pretty damn strong. Smart too for sticking with her therapy. The doggos may show up again!

They all needed closure when it came to Heather and her baby. Yep, the boys will get married, but seriously... Vegas? I did a head tilt of my own when Kyle suggested it. Thanks Mags!

🤣🤣 Blame @Danilo Syrtis, he started it. Thanks for reading!

BTW... you missed an ER character.

You want WOK 2 or me to finish the shifter story? 😋 Is it really the end for Bruce, Rosie and Tater? Only 8 hours will tell.

You're welcome! Hopefully the story muse will get it's ass into gear so I can finish one I've had on the back burner for a while.

Jett hummed as he loaded the last box into the back of his truck. He couldn’t shake the broad smile stuck on his face. Kyle was moving in with him and he was happy. Bruce stuck by his side, tail wagging. He seemed to know that his best friend Rosie was about to be a permanent fixture in their house. The big dog now had a permanent, rather goofy look about him. The ear that had been shot was fixed, but nerve damage meant that the ear would never stand up straight again, so he was left with

Well deserved! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

I was wondering what happened to you.... better late than never! Glad you enjoyed it.

My husband decided to be extra extra chipper and perky this morning. I was not. Hope your day gets better! You too Fae!

I'm glad you caught up! Sorry there's nothing left to ration out! Thanks for the comments and I'm happy you enjoyed the story. (Still a wee bit left to go!)

Thanks Cub! It was a rollercoaster of chapter and it was meant to be that way. I'm glad you liked it.

Shush.

Welcome! I like getting readers hooked with the first chapter. You came in at a good time, I just posted the last chapter, but there's still an epilogue left which will post on Friday. Feel free to leave comments as you go along!

I know I've mentioned that my company has had us doing ongoing sales training. As part of that training the owner was offered to have all employees do a behavioral/personality assessment. We've all done these, I think. I, personally have never been a great fan as the results are either way off base or vague. So anyway, got an email link for one of these assessments. So I did it this morning. I have to admit I went into it skeptical. But.... when I got the results I was blown away. This assessment started with 'Behavioral Characteristics'. Three paragraphs of how I typically approach things and how I work best in my working environment. Pretty much every point was spot on correct. Then there was a section of what value I add to the company. Next section: "Checklist for Communication". This was a bullet point list of ways to best communicate with me. The first five were general things like provide personal assurances, give her time to analyze, be patient, respect her quiet demeanor (got a raised eyebrow), use the proper buzzwords. Then I read the 6th bullet point and damn near fell off my chair laughing: Keep at least three feet away from her.. That, my friends is everything you need to know about dealing with me on a professional level in a nutshell...🤣🤣🤣 It went on to list more dos and don'ts when communicating with me. "Don't touch her body when talking to her." Absolutely true. I do not like people I don't know touching me or getting in my personal space. Overall it was definitely the best assessment I've ever done. I really think it will help me be a better manager and I'm hoping that my upper management will utilize the communication tips as I have to deal with a lot of strong personalities who aren't always the best at dealing with other people. Maybe the dingbat who keeps interrupting me will get the hint and realize that's not the proper way to talk to anyone. So anyway... have a good evening. (And stay three feet away!!!)

It's funny that you mentioned the change in POV. Mrs. Gnomie pointed it out in the edits and I didn't even realized I had done that. It was a little too late to rewrite it, so I'm glad it wasn't too distracting for you as a reader. Sometimes mistakes work in your favor and this time it did for me. Bruce thanks you for the steak!❤🥩

I'm happy that it turned out the way it did. Suspenseful and dramatic are new-ish to me as a writer. I haven't used it too much. Thanks!

Do you really think I'm going to spill the beans Kitt?

You know the saying .... be careful what you wish for!

Send your version to @Mrsgnomie and we'll splice them together. 🤣🤣

Like I mentioned... ends are tied up. Gonna have to wait until Friday though! Between me and my best friend, we had most of the nostalgic toys from way back when, plus Tonka and GI Joe from her brother!

He gets my vote!

Thanks Mawgrim! It was actually a pretty easy chapter to write. Once I got going it took wings and flew. It was the final edits, which I did last night, that almost had me chewing my nails!
