Senior Housing and Care

It’s a sad state of affairs that we here in the U. S. of A don’t take care of our elderly parents and grandparents the way that they do over in the other parts of the world. Families are so spread apart from each other these days, with work and other obligations keeping us from residing close by to each other. It used to be that families stayed on the same road or at least in the same town or county, but those days are long gone, sad but true.

My parents are at the point in their life that they are needing to find assisted living facilities for their parents.  The Internet certainly comes into play here folks. By going online they can look around and see what options are available for them to look into. There are a lot of assisted living communities and to physically go out and about to research them all would be terribly time consuming and with our busy lifestyles that just isn’t feasible for most of us.

At some point I’ll be needing to be taking the effort to find senior independent living arrangements for my folks. Not something to look forward to, but a necessary evil. I’ll do what I can to make sure that they are well taken care of in their particular situation and I’ll be using the Internet to locate what I think to be the best type of care for them that I possibly can. Hopefully that won’t be for a very long time to come.

Too Sick To Clean House

Words to the wise.

Always keep several get well cards on the mantle….So if unexpected guests arrive, they will think you’ve been sick and unable to clean…

My mother always said this, so it was funny to see this in an email from a friend the other day. I always thought that my mother had made this saying up.

Pass It On

I got this in an email today. Thought this would be a good way to pass it along as they say.

Leaves Keep A Falling

Over the weekend I decided to take some time to rake up some of the many leaves that have found their way onto my lawn. I made the mistake of going outside right after I got out of the shower,with my hair still wet. I should have known better, because now I have a terrible cough that has made my life miserable and I feel like hell.

To top it all off, I still have a lot more leaves that need to be raked up and I’m feeling too poorly to do anything much about it all for now.
