09-15-22 Joseph Creek
Today, there was a BBQ at the workplace, much payroll to run, files to finish and tours to take. I picked up Mom for a 1 pm tour of Joseph Creek Seniors living. We went to the wrong entrance where Mom had her first Covid test ever! We passed, as she put it, and walked over to the independent living building where Rosie was waiting. We were given a tour of the facility including two available suites, a studio and a one bedroom. The studio was far too small and the other was wonderful as it was on the top floor relatively near the laundry and elevator, but you could hear neither. The menu for dinner was very enticing. I think Mom was very overwhelmed but I also think she is warming to the idea of moving here and she liked that apartment. It is $3250 per month including so many things. She would have to pay her cell and internet and buy groceries for breakfast and lunch only. Everything else is included. I hope she comes to the decision to take it. We have a tour tomorrow of Kootenay Street Village which is new by comparison and has underground parking which impresses her. It also has a waiting list and higher cost but we will go see it for comparison.
After, we stopped at Arby’s to see the girls and Roger also happened to stop in. I carried on back to work. Once I was done what I could handle today, I came home and made us dinner. We then watched the Finale and Results of America’s Got Talent and the performers I loved from the beginning won. Now we are watching a documentary about Queen Elizabeth II for an hour before heading to bed.
It was girl guide cookie day and we enjoyed some for dessert. Mint are my favourite.
