It was a gorgeous
morning here - cool-ish, with low humidity.
I got the whole paper read on the deck.
Plus I slept until nearly 8 this morning - amazing for me!! I did very little today - watched a lot of
the NCIS marathon. I have a tendency to
sit on my whatever all day and just knit, read, or be on the computer. I'm trying to get into the habit of getting
up at least every hour and taking a short walk.
While we've got this lovely weather, I'm going outside to walk on the walkway behind the
building. I hope I'll stick with it - I
know I need to do it.

I've been here at
The Terrace just a week under one year.
And the decline in food quality, permanent staff/service/etc. is
distressing. Granted, there's been a lot
of turnover in management (new owners, new management company, new director,
new marketing, etc.) and it takes time for things to settle out. And although I don't use it, I've heard tales
about the turnover and decline in the nursing staff. Since this is primarily an assisted living
facility, that's even more distressing.
My next-door neighbors added on to their apartment at their own expense
(not recoverable) and are even thinking about moving. Some residents are calling an ombudsman.
Those of us in independent living have the option of getting out-and-about, but
most of the other folks aren't able to do that. Plus I'm already paying for
three meals a day, but am eating out or at home more and more often. It'll be
interesting to see if my monthly fee goes up at the end of my year. I like my apartment and the people here, and I don't want to move. But at least I know I have that option.

Hope things settle soon.
