The queen size mattress will hold two Great Dane dogs very easily as long as they stretch out to begin with and clear off anything else that's on the bed and shove that all onto the floor... then the twin size mattress. can comfortably hold one Jack Russell terrier ---one right in the middle... such is our current sleeping arrangements... thank heavens Judy is not here to have to deal. but everything that I had stored on the queen size mattress at my elbow at the semi desk is now behind the chair in a muddle of remotes and mail....
My new schedule hopefully will be to get out in the car doing other things between 9:00 and 11:00 sometimes that will be going to assisted living places or lining them up or interviewing people or whatever------ moving forward at any rate we have several people joining our visiting crew. Well they aren't joining they are rejoining they're old people that have been around for a long time they know the ropes the dogs know them and I think they would be a tremendous asset 2 letting people know that goldies farm is basically a community asset if people want to come and enjoy the place fine or if we can bring animals to them that's fine and although it sounds odd it has to be run a little bit loosely to be able to accomplish and let people know what we can do... and you when you come right down to it I don't think there's anyone in Massachusetts more qualified then Janine or I. to bring animals into odd situations... remember I once got a 500 pound pig on the roof of the hotel down by South station... I've had donkeys at the top of the pru ... and hundreds of black snakes I can't remember where... well we might not use the black snake routine.... but the donkey is yes... as I have found the donkeys are extremely tolerant of crowds and they have a perfect persona for this job of community outreach. do I have to add here that we might have to sort out the donkeys a little bit to find one that is agreeable to crowds. but the natural tendency is there and easier to work with.
