OOPS! I hit the 'publish now' button instead of 'publish tomorrow!'
It's Walkin' and Readin' Wednesday!
As seen while on 'the hoof' in my neighborhood:
This licky kitty has a caretaker.
This kitty also has a caretaker.

The other day, I was stopped by two different Sheriff's Department squad cars, as the officers were looking for anyone who could identify a youngster found running in the middle of the street nearby.
I did not recognize the photo, continued on my walk as I witnessed the squad cars driving all over the place, stopping other neighbors.
A few hours later, on our community Facebook feed, a report advised that the parents were located, and everyone is safe.
It's just not every day that I get to chat with two handsomes in uniform while strolling in the 'hood! 😻
Seriously, am simply glad all is well.

Three recently listened to audiobooks that I recommend, and I'm on a British mystery kick:
The Keeper, by Tana French
Book #3 in the Cal Hooper trilogy
Narrated by Roger Clark
"Retired detective Cal Hooper moves to a remote village in rural Ireland. His plans are to fix up the dilapidated cottage he's bought, to walk the mountains, to put his old police instincts to bed forever." - Goodreads
Love listening to the Irish narration, and the mysteries are intricate, the characters feel real, and I'll miss them now that the series is over. Book #3 The Keeper starts with a young woman's body found in a stream, and Lena (Cal's fiancee) was the last person to see her alive.
How to Get Away with Murder, by Rebecca Philipson
Narrated by Michael Geary and Tamsin Kennard
Standalone Novel
"This fresh debut thriller finds a Scotland Yard detective trying to find the author of a self-help book that promises quite literally to teach readers how to get away with murder, which seems to have inspired London's newest murderer." - Goodreads
The Burial Place by Stig Abell
Book #3 in the ongoing Jake Jackson Series
Narrated by Oliver Hembrough
"For years, Jake Jackson has been a high-flying detective in London. But then one day he receives a letter from his reclusive uncle – he has left Jake his property in the middle of the countryside. For Jake, it is the perfect opportunity for a fresh start for a quiet life in Caelum Parvum." - Goodreads
Book #3 The Burial Place begins with the nearby archaeology dig finding bodies; fresh ones.

Henry Update:
The H Man doesn't like open windows, and he also doesn't like the window air-conditioner noise, nor the fans blowing either. Poor baby. Then the thunderbooms come along, and he's happy to live on the floor of the linen closet. Smart cat!
No noticeable changes since we've added the new antibiotic, reduced the steroids from two pills a day to one-and-1/2 pills, and the doubling of his fiber powder.
❤️❤️❤️

Let's Hop!
Glad everyone was happy and safe at the end ot that day! Interesting books, Two of my uncles and even after eons of years of retirement, they still saw their world through cop's eyes...
ReplyDeletePoor Henry...soon enough he might just enjoy the outside from a window seat! (But not the thunderies...)
Precious cannot stand any loud noises. That includes me accidentally banging a pan lid in the kitchen! Some of our kitties just have extra sensitive years. Two summers ago I had a Sheriff stop me while I was walking and ask if I had seen three cows that were on the loose! They were eventually rounded up and they did come through my yard on their way home. About a mile away.
ReplyDeleteWe're glad the little one is safe. We hope Henry can find a comfy spot to snooze.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the child was safe but wonder about that out n' about. Purrs to Henry, keep doing good on the food dude!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy the little one was found and is safe with their family. Always terrible when they come up missing.
