The Fighter


Maggie and I went to the movies again, good times! We went to see The Fighter. It’s a real life story of the boxer Mickey Ward who competed for the boxing title of a welterweight. A welterweight is heavier than a lightweight but lighter than a middleweight. The boxer must weigh between 140lbs -147lbs. That is one fit human! Mark Wahlberg played Micky and I felt he did an outstanding job. He even built a gym in his home to work out for the role!
This movie set in the 80’s, really gave me insight into what human families are all about. I loved it! 4 paws and a tail up!

Sammy

Christian Bale threw me for a loop I didn’t know whether I wanted to meow at him or rub up against him to give him some comfort. He played Mickey’s half brother, Dicky . Dicky wanted so much to help Micky but he had a tough enough time trying to help himself. In fact Mickey’s entire family with their big hair was really entertaining. It’s definitely a must see. 4 paws and a tail up!

All About Me

My photo
Jill illustrates greeting cards and works at an Animal Medical Hospital in Arizona. Her love for animals can be seen in every drawing she has ever done. It wasn’t until Jill and her husband Paul adopted Maggie & Sam (2 crazy cats) from the Humane Society that Jill created the Maggie & Sam Collection. All of Maggie and Sam’s personalities as well as their friends have been captured in Jill’s work. In every illustration you will see humor, and love through her characters’ eyes. Jill has been selling her cards in local Arizona Stores. However, being passionate Jill wanted to create a website that would bring people together to talk about their pets, share their stories and to interact with other pet lovers. They will be able to learn new and interesting facts about the various animals pictured on the greeting cards, read their pet’s horoscope, and send personal messages to their friends and families at any time via e-mail.
