I knew she had sold her home and moved into a condo with her husband. As time went on she saw changes in him and realized it was time to make another move. Their choice was an Erickson Community on the North Shore.

Two years after their move her husband passed away. By this time she was settled in a community that provided much support for her. She is a very outgoing and down-to-earth person and has made many friends and life is good.
This past Saturday a concert was being held at her community and she invited me and my friends to attend. I accepted her invitation not so much because of the program but because it would give me an opportunity to see "the place" again.
A few years ago I attended promotional lunches and ice cream parties there but was not ready to make the move.
Recently I was thinking "I'm too old to make the move."
Well, when I saw the residents that attended the concert, I don't think I'm too old!
Maybe they are younger than me but they looked older.
My friend introduced me to a few of her friends and they were all very enthusiastic about their lifestyle. Others that I spoke with felt the same way, they love it!
I told them that I think the kitchen must be putting "happy pills in the food."
Two of the ladies invited me to see their apartments. Wasn't that nice of them?

One apartment was a one bedroom and the other was a very large two bedroom.
To quote my friend, she says, "Millie run don't walk, Do it."
Maybe?
