My goodness it is very cold this morning. I wore long underwear and a jacket with sweater to breakfast.
I thought the helper here had told me one of her clients, on the first floor, had only one set of sheets.  Therefore, the bed could not be made until the sheets had been washed and dried. Yesterday at church, there were remnants of the week-end rummage sale.  I bought three items, ruffle, and two twin sheets for the poor resident.  But on Sunday I could locate no one who needed sheets!  O je.  I knocked on the door of one suspect and called and walked in ( not a good idea) and was appalled with the scene in the two rooms.  Clean laundry stacked everywhere and even on the floor.  The resident was asleep in bed.  I sneaked out.  But I am sad that housekeepers are not looking after the woman who is paying for two rooms and meal delivery. There must have been seven meal boxes stacked.

Dear xxx
I dialed your cell phone and again got the recording to leave a message.
Also. thanks for the check for the concert Feb 16 Chinese New Year.Jan 15 eye exam in Milford OK.  Will you get your car cleaned?  Or do I drive myself?
I need an address for the location so as to use my Garmin.
I was in Milford today to see an emergency dentist:  Dr Guju. I have pain and cannot chew.
There goes this year's vacation! O je.  Surgery plus implant to replace the lost #28. I estimate $3403.00 from Fifth Third Securities and I hope it grows back soon.

Mom,

Next Thursday 9am I have set an appointment for you and I to sit down with xxx and hopefully get on the same page. 

I said that my hope is that  xxx draws up an Independent Living contract that reflects the agreement for a forever price that you signed up for. We get it vetted by an attorney that it is the arrangement that you want and need. I got the impression from xxx that corporate has been dragging their feet and he will contact them again about writing up a contract that represents the deal you have. Seems they don't offer a forever price as a rule, but that that is what your arrangement is and they bought it along with xxx I suppose. He's hoping to have and answer and paperwork Thursday. At least we'll get some clarity out of this. Please have an attorney name lined up or I will find someone to look it over. That's why I was wondering if you have more complete paperwork for the original contract. For comparison.

Going forward, if all goes well with a fresh,xxx contract, xxx should be clear as to what your invoice should be. If management wants or needs to add charges, they need to be specifically itemized on the invoice, NOT rolled into the price. I have to wonder if they are trying to charge you "laundry service" for doing the sheets? But, as an IL resident, they should be clearly notifying you so that you have a chance to contest the necessity and the charge. What the heck is Independent Living anyway? Until recently, xxx sure didn't have or pay for such oversight. Sound reasonable? Of course, you would have to open received notices for this to work.

I think I avoided your exercise days, Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Are you good to go Tuesday evening for the movie Anna Karinina in Mariemont?

The biggest news is, the cookies I ordered from the Natural Health Shop were routed through Amazon, who sent them to Sherry Road, and the Kahns opened and ate the two boxes I had ordered for Hills and Marc/Maggie. I expect I shall have to pay the bill on Discover card, but the worker there showed me how to get the old address off Amazon! O je. Next week I shall stop at Target and look for the replacement.
     THIS EVENING I WAS READING MAIL WHEN THE FIRE ALARM WENT OFF:  THE THIRD FLOOR HALL WAS SMOKEY AND WE HAD TO EVACUATE DOWN THE STAIRS; A HARD JOB FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT WALKING.
      No one explains what is happening.  We sit and tell the helpers that "Yes, I am all right". Gad-
