June and July have been busy for Bea. Living alone in her house was getting to be too much of a chore, so she checked out local retirement homes.
Halcyon House a retirement community run by the Methodist Church was having a 20% off sale, and Mom pounced on a good deal while it was hot. She secured a two bedroom apartment, hooked up with a realtor, called a mover, and had a rummage sale. It's all over but closing on her house now, and that should happen in the next few days. I have noted that there are not any gun-free-zone signs on the doors, so some of the residents could actually be packing heat when they go to the dining rooms.
Kudos to your mom for tackling such a big change. I've no doubt that she'll be an inspiration to her new neighbors.
ReplyDeleteThat must have been some rummage sale. I'm sorry I missed it.
ReplyDeleteThe Halcyon House sounds like a place I'd like to move to. Next week.
No grass to mow, no snow to scoop, the Life of Riley!
