A Solution

This was shared with me from a friend and I felt the need to share it with you.

How to solve the Seniors Retirement problem and the growing Prison Inmate problem with one change....

Here's the way it should be:
Let's put the seniors in jail and the criminals in nursing homes.
This would correct two things in one motion:

Seniors would have access to showers, hobbies
and walks.

They would receive unlimited free prescriptions, dental and medical Treatment, wheel chairs, etc.

They would receive money instead of having to pay it out.

They would have constant video monitoring, so they would be helped instantly... If they fell or needed assistance.

Bedding would be washed twice a week and all clothing would be ironed and returned to them.

A guard would check on them every 20 minutes.

All meals and snacks would be brought to them.

They would have family visits in a suite built for that purpose.
They would have access to a library, weight/fitness room, spiritual counseling, a pool and education...
and free admission to in-house concerts by nationally recognized entertainment artists.

Simple clothing - i.e.. Shoes, slippers, pj's - and legal aid would be free, upon request.

There would be private, secure rooms provided for all with an outdoor exercise yard complete with gardens.

Each senior would have a P.C., T.V., phone and radio in their room at no cost.

They would receive daily phone calls.

There would be a board of directors to hear any complaints and the ACLU would fight for their rights and protection.

The guards would have a code of conduct to be strictly adhered to, with attorneys available, at no charge to protect the seniors and their families from abuse or neglect.

As for the criminals:
They would receive cold food.
They would be left alone and unsupervised.
They would receive showers once a week.
They would live in tiny rooms, for which they would have to pay $5,000 per month.
They would have no hope of ever getting out.


"Sounds like justice to me!"

Germany Bound

Well, it is official. The kids are in Germany. It has taken me a few days to come to grips with the reality of it all. It was an extremely difficult day saying goodbye and watching the plane ascend into the heavens. I allowed myself the day to indulge in a self-pity  party. Every toy left behind, every piece of clothing, brought a fresh batch of tears. The quietness now is almost deafening.

What I will miss the most is their hugs and kisses, their child-like  wonder, their honesty, and their imagination. I think I smiled and laughed more in the past year than I have in my entire life. I am thankful to God and my daughter and son-in-law for the opportunity to spend the past year bounding with my grand children. They have renewed my zest for life and adventure.

I am now eagerly anticipating the opportunity to visit a foreign country, something I’ve never really had a desire to do before. Children have a way of making you see things in a different light. Their fearlessness and innocence have a way of seeping in and giving life new purpose, new meaning.

I will trust in God that He has placed them where He wants them to be. I will trust that He will give me the strength, fortitude and positive attitude to forge forward each day with a renewed spirit for this fragile, wonderful, adventure called life. I will trust in Him to watch over them and keep them safe.

Our children teach us what life is all about.
