Hello friends,
I´m writing in the middle of the worst thunder storm that I have been in during my life. And we are in the middle of spring!
I have been calling at senior homes and deciding what I want and need. I just crossed out one that offered small apartments, but no medical help if needed. I think that I should not only think about my present needs but also of other needs I might have later on.
Dixie can´t take me to see them as she is ill. But my brother told me that he could take me next week. I´m not sure if next week starts tomorrow or in 7 more days but I´m not that pressed for time.
Now I am also selecting photos. I will not take all of them in my next move.
Thunder is not so loud now but the day is dark. I´ll go and see what I can have for dinner.
Sleep tight.

Hopefully, it clears up soon. A storm that bad can be quite scary. Thank you!

We had a thunder storm yesterday too and it bothered my dogs a lot. I don't like it.
Weather is really unpredictable and crazy now.

Poor dogs! Thunder can really frighten them. The weather does seem so unpredictable sometimes, and it's hard to know what to expect next.

Lightening is what scares me most during thunder storms.

It does sound like it was a whopper of a storm. And I know your area doesn’t need any more rain right now. I am glad to hear your brother will take you to see some places. I hope you soon find a place you like.

I hope she finds a place she feels comfortable with too. Having her brother available to take her around should make the search a little easier.

Feels strange hearing someone talk about spring while others complain about winter coming early.

I hope the storm goes away shortly. It's been a while since we had a thunderstorm.

That sounds like a frightening storm! I hope the weather settles down soon. It's good that your brother can take you to see the homes next week. I think you're right to consider what support you might need in the future, not just what you need now. Good luck finding somewhere that feels right for you.
