The Journey Begins AGAIN…

Thanks for joining me at this journey, AGAIN.

I’ve been recovering from the death of my Beloved husband, Bob. I’m coming up on the second anniversary of his death. He is still in my heart, and often in my thoughts.

I ask myself whether other widows feel the same. I do live in a Senior community where death is a reality that we deal with somewhat regularly. The year Bob died there were 19 other friends who died that same year.

So there are widows and widowers who are also coming up on the second anniversary of their Beloveds.

Our community is very unique. We have 400 folks who live in single family homes and apartments. In addition we have an assisted living facility for 80 that has apartments for couples and small rooms for singles.

Both parts of our community have their own dining rooms. Those living in independent homes have a buffet lunch sitting at tables. Assisted living folks have served meals sitting at tables.

We also have a Health Center where people can have nursing care.

One of the ways that we are unique is that the people we sit with at meals changes by the meal. A computer assigns seats, and we all have name tents that are set out by Staff.

We have activities at all locations .
