By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.

my customer , mike , an extremely brilliant man told me when my time with edna has ended something else just as rewarding will present itsself . hes so dam smart that i believe ill take his word on that ..
then i had a letter here stating that my new property assessment had fallen slightly -- good -- even lower property taxes is all that means to me ..
good day .
I have a fondest for very old books. One I have is "The Etiquette of Today" copyrighted 1903. What a hoot to read, but there are so many things that I wish young people would consider doing once again... like hand writing thank you notes, and how young people socialized, courting, etc.
a fellow named rick came to our house one day and strummed a tune for mom on a stringed harp . mom really liked rick but confided in me that the harp music sucked ..
its a rain day here and im fine with that . been working plenty hard . i think ill show up at nh in about an hour and see what the fee is for me to sit and have their jail food with aunt edna at lunchtime .. the jail food blows but im a very focused person . the real payoff is checkin out " dorreens " behind when she aint lookin..
its as close as i come to multitasking ..
With my Mom in the hospital heading to NH I've managed to keep my trap shut when dealing with my oldest useless sister! (I have 6 more but I haven't even told 4 she's in the hospital)
Do you understand? It's not going to help Mom's situation if I pipe up and tell her to eff off, BUT inside me it would feel like such an accomplishment...
It's absolutely gripping reminding ourselves what we thought was definitely true back then. Mind you, it's also often a pleasant surprise how right they were, and even sometimes how right-on they were!
But put that on eBay, if it's a decent edition - someone'll give you money for it.
Sorry for typos, can't see the screen for the leaning towers of books in here… ;)
Plus I went through my book collection which isn't all that large, and pulled out 20 books in excellent condition to donate.
Tonight my Dad asked me if I wanted their old encyclopedia or he could donate it.... this set of books was published 75 years ago. OMG, no wonder it has been taking years for my parents to downsize at the speed they are going :P
Medicaid pays the hospice a set daily amount and they have to cover all their services including drugs. The hospice has to make up any extra with fund raising and memorial gifts which of course vary greatly depending on the area they serve.
This also affects the salaries they can pay hence the quality of staff they can attract. Your new hospice may attract a lot of money so are able to go above and beyond the services they HAVE to provide. That being said there is never any excuse for unprofessional behaviour so we'll see if the new one follows through on their promises. Anyway I am glad you are pleased so far
helpontheway,
i dont really get along with cuz all that wonderfully . shes not very smart and at heart a very spiteful person . i just dont fall into her hateful mind games . her youngest son , this time , sent me an F filled phone message the other day . after all i caught them at their game of going partying instead of relieving me for an important va appointment and totally threw a wrench in it . that kid doesnt exite me any more than her older kid did . they think being obese amounts to being fearsome .. ( yawn ) .. it just isnt so . theyve obviously never heard of the oriental art of " tire tool , montgomery wards " .. lol
kum bye ya , heather , the speakers and the pc ..
kum bye ya , somebody take them bigmouthed parakeets ,
etc ..
kum - bye - ya wackos .. i got drunk and paid my real friends to help me move home ..
Hope you forgot to mention the bra straps cutting into their shoulder when they are trying to make their knee warmers look young again
Got myself firmly back on track with my low-carb eating. I feel *really* good when I eat the right way. (Right for me = low carb.) Also tried Bulletproof Coffee for the first time today - OMG. Awesome stuff. It's definitely a love-it or hate-it kind of thing, but I have to say, I love it, and I don't see me drinking anything else in the future. I felt so good, so energized, so CLEAR headed. Feeling pretty good about accomplishing those things today. Laundry and dishes are a work in progress, but I'm getting there.
