A WORD FROM THE HEART

Hello, friends,  I'm writing this today without earlier preparation, as writing in long hand has been killing my right arm! (Nothing like a little exaggeration to start off!)  So there is no bible story today.


  I'd like to tell you what Jerry and I have been up to this past week or so. Our kids are concerned that in the years to come, as Jerry and I get less able, we have no  back up for getting are for ourselves.  So we have been promoting our signing up for a home that has the advantage  of having continuous care even  as a person's situation changes.


Here in Stillwater there is senior housing with the care available as your life changes, in Boutwells Landing. We took a look at the various homes and see a lot we really like, in particular the main building where the apartments are the most sought after. In this main building is a library, pool, exercise rooms, a beautiful dining room and lounge, a coffee shop, a small shopping area,  card room, patio, outside (summertime) lounge, mail room, etc.  I probably have forgotten some rooms, but it was all wonderfully tempting.  We are definitely interested, but there is a huge long waiting list.
This afternoon we're going to look at the same, but smaller, senior housing in Montemedi, which is where our church, St. Andrews, is located.


These are both operated  out of the Presbyterian homes, so they are the best of the best.


Our daughter, Lynn, just arrived.  She is taking us.  So, will keep you posted when there is something to really tell.
