For this week’s blog, I introduced myself to some new
neighbors, and asked them why they decided to move into a senior living
community like the one I call home.
He says: “We had accumulated all these things together
during our marriage. We were getting up in age. Rather than leave one of us to
have all that to deal with, we decided to move into one of the beautiful new
patio cottages this community has built. We’ve been here a month and can
already tell it was exactly the right thing for us to do.”
She says: “We still need to go back to our house and finish
sorting out the last of our possessions, so we can put the house on the market at
the beginning of next month. We’re almost finished, thank goodness. We’re quite
ready to settle down and have time to experience more about our new
surroundings!”
