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.

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.

Right up our alley!
I'm reading Mitch Albom , the little liar.
It's good. All his work is so moving. So I'll let ya know how much crying I end up doing.
The book mentions the "heat dome" that hovered over the Pacific Northwest in 2021 for about a week. Temps to 102 deg.--that was totally unprecedented for this area. Winter snowfall this year has been 50-75% of normal so far. These are NOT good changes.
And the House of Lincoln.

I love historical fiction,
When I was distressed I opened up another and went into that world of the 80s when everyone smoked, and Airwick was a thing, when there was pimento cheese in a jam jar, and when there were no cell phones and DNA was only a glimmer of hope.
I am on Law is for Lawless, and I am thoroughly enjoying the work of this woman who WAS taken suddenly and unexpectedly by cancer, a blood cancer if I remember, before she could finish the alphabet.
Thanks to her--and to authors everywhere, who deliver us from real life to another magical world where we can escape. May she long live on helping others tho she is so long gone from us.
Waist height, better for Mother's back (in theory).
The reality was one-handed hair washing as sister yelled & twisted about & was pinned down on the draining board with Mother's other hand so she didn't wriggle off & fall. I think I stood on a chair to help pin her legs down.
No-one had invented those little hat-face guards the little children wear in the bath yet.
“Hang little girls’ dresses on the line inside out, so the hem fades equally ready for letting down”.
“Wash small children’s hair by lying them down on the draining board with their head over the sink”. If only!
But absolutely nothing on aged care. Zip! Zilch! Clearly, there wasn’t much of it going on!
Got a bunch of real books as have not investigated library e-versions yet - but will be.

The it is about 9.99 per book for F is for Fugitive through H is for Homicide. Starting with I it is free again on Amazon Kindle Unlimited, so this must vary out there? Or change around.
I can order so easily just about anything from our library and it is delivered ASAP to the library branch I choose, so just walked the three "for sale " book, again, home free. I am SUCH a cheapskate about some things and a spendthrift about others. Go figure. Because I love books. I do have an author currently about my favorite (Michael Finkel) and just ordered ALL his books for my son in law (Start with The Art Thief) today. So not like I don't support my favorite authors, hee hee.
However. I must say I have more than enough books to read. I get notices from Joffe books about their free ebooks. I have chosen only mysteries so far and get more of the ones I like than I can read before the next batch comes out.
I've checked the Sue Grafton series and they cost - about $12 a piece for the first ones in the series anyway.
These books are getting me through as an escape reread in these times. I am up to F is for Fugitive but Kindle tricked me by making them free until now. Just walked to the library for F, G and H. Then they start to be free on Kindle again. Go figure.
Have not, but it sounds fun.

I am reading Roger Ormerod's Detective Richard Patton murder mystery series. I like the characters but, to me, the plots are a bit too tangled. However, I am still enjoying them.
