A response in not as much avoidance of the Daily Post’s Writing prompt https://dailypost.wordpress.com/prompts/tenterhooks/

On Tenterhooks:  A state of uncomfortable suspense.  https://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/on-tenterhooks.html

Well, I knew the meaning, but for some reason I thought it was “on tenderhooks”.  Just goes to show that sometimes what we believe to be true is not.  Now if only certain people who are creating a state of permanent Tenterhooks would stop with the “belief = truth” crap.

Who is not on tenterhooks?  Jasper.  I think I want to be a kitten.
