New Series Announcement:
Due to the vast years of experience of us both being nurses, the Hubs and I
have in long term care, my head is always full of the life style of living in a
nursing home (long term care facility). One outlet for me is to write about my
life experiences and hopefully along the way help others prepare, cope, and
thrive knowing that unless you are a millionaire you too someday will live and
die in a nursing home. Some of you are hearing this for this first time. Yes,
YOU are going to someday too end up in a nursing home. We can hope that we are privileged to live a
long life but the fact remains that you were delivered by nurses and you will
die being cared for by a nurse. I
personally want to live to be 104 years old. Why, 104? I have no idea; it is
just a number that feels right for me.
Knowing this, I have started working backwards to ensure I do live to
see 104 years old. So when will I go
into a nursing home? I was thinking for myself that when I am tired of cooking
for myself, bored with keeping my own home clean, and I have traveled all I
want. I will pack up my belongings and at the ripe ol’ age of 90, I will retire
to a traditional nursing home to live out my remaining life. I want this new
series to be about what I am doing to work backwards and along the way remind
us all to enjoy the moment and the ride we call life. Kimmy
