Just had a wierd thing happen this afternoon. I took my horse to a nursing home last week. The activities director invited me. My daughter in law went along. She works for the local paper and took a picture of my horse with a resident, which was printed in the paper. Now we are getting flak because some wacko nurse says the paper has to have written permission to print a picture.
I had nothing to do with the picture, but I know rules are always followed and no picture is printed unless people agree to it. The editor said, no, the paper does not have to have written permission. I guess it is something to do with the new privacy laws. Anyway, the nurse was out of line to call without consulting the administration.
I got so upset that I am not sure I want to go back to the home. The world is sure full of wackos. I just wanted to share my little horse and maybe entertain some old folks...

ps Searching throught the forum I found a place that sells booties for minis that are suitable for slick floors. Now I am not sure I even want to buy them.
