I moved to a 55 and over building
Haven't written for awhile but since I last blogged, I moved to a senior building. This particular building is a historic building here in Detroit called the Whittier. It sits on the Detroit River next to a marina and park with a track. A developer has and still is restoring it to its original splendor with the beautiful chandaliers, ballroom, spring garden, exercise room, beauty and barbershops, TV room, library and anything else he can think of to make the tenants comfortable. I absolutely love it. I've joined the dance class (cane and all) on Wed and Thurs evenings plus I play cards with some of the residents on Tuesday evenings. The track is a little over a mile long and I walked all the way around last Saturday. I'm trying to do it at least 3 times a week to work on my gait and maybe just maybe get rid of my cane by the end of this year. Although I'm only on the 2nd floor, my windows overlook the park so it's inspirational to see others walking the park. Today they had a father's day dinner. I didn't attend although I did go to the mother's day dinner. It was nice with entertainment and good food. It was beautiful outside today, but I'm still unpacking so I decided to hang a few small paintings and just enjoy being alive. I thought I had uploaded my photo but I don't see it so I'll try again. Bye for now. . . Me
