For the second time in a week I have had people in town wanting to pay me! The farmer who stables the horses tried to pay me for putting up the preacher and his wife that they were interviewing for his Church a few months ago (he thought he hadn' paid me) and I told him I had told the lady that made the reservation when she asked if I would accept a check from the Church that I could not because there was no charge.
Today I had 2 members of the same family wanting to pay me for taking in their nephew and his daughter who are VERY allergic to cats (there are cats living with the aunt & uncle). They buried the nephew's Mother today and there was no way they could get to Pittsburgh to the airport after the funeral (there was too much snow and ice for them to even go to the cemetery. They live in Florida and the daughter who is 14 had never seen snow! She has now! This family is "OLD Shin ns ton", I know they could easily afford it, but I know they would help me if I needed it. Sometimes the money does not count.
