Leah invited me to the Toy Boat 10 Minute Movies last Saturday. She was in two. One was the old Haley Mills movie, Parent Trap and one was A League of Their Own. They were both wonderful. She is quite an actor. So is sweet Claire and the rest of the gang. It was funny, funny... Leah is on her way soon to Pittsburg to visit Christine, then onto Detroit and then to New Mexico. Paws crossed!

I'm beginning to worry about supporting my animal welfare and refugee charities when I'm on Social Security. I think I must begin to embrace the idea that I will be working until my last breath. I can't afford to live on $2,000 a month and take care of 8 dogs, plus pay a mortgage. Leah has invited me to move to Western MA when she is finished traveling. That would be wonderful. Something to look forward too. This was on the Federal Building in San Francisco last night!

Cold HORSES

Keep passing the pasture behind the fire department. There are 3 horses there and 2 donkeys. I've been worried about them in this cold. /There is only a aluminum stand with a roof it is open on all 4 sides. No walls. I called and ask one of the fireman if I would be able to donate horse blankets to whoever owned the horses... thinking that surely the person who kept them in a pasture like this has little money. The volunteer at the fired department said "yes, I think that would be greatly appreciated." I bought 4 horse blankets and they cost 499/00. I went by the fire department and talked to the Captain. He told me the owner was the chairman of their board and he had thought he would have taken the horses elsewhere to winter by now. I told him I had 4 blankets and if the owner wanted to call me I would donate them as it is so cold and will be colder. He took my name and number. I really do not have this kind of money... but the horses look so cold to me during the day.
I hope I hear from him. If nothing else I will lecture him and ask why he has left them in the cold for so long. Now that I'm an old woman.. I can do things like that.
