Our empty nest is in a retirement community in Florida and last night was the first show in a 5-show package at our clubhouse. They have this series of shows every winter and if you buy tickets to all five, you get the same seat and a bit of a break on the price.
Since winter is here and reading is always a great way to spend a cold winter’s night (there are other ways of course but you can only do that so much), I thought I would mention some books that I’ve read in the past that I’ve found to be very inspirational.

It is not clear why they are failing but some hospitals are failing a criteria of quality care or other government standards. Of course there is much complaining from within the health system [...]
We all know there are problems looming in both programs so yesterday’s annual press release, or announcement, concerning future shortfalls should come as no surprise. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson basically stated that Social Security will only be able to pay 78% of benefits by the year 2041. Medicare comes sooner with a payout of 78% [...]

Here you will find retirement communities of various kinds around the country, plus Costa Rica. Community reviews are available, including tips [...] |
