Nursing Home Chronicles

Hi to the Real World Out There!

I suppose you have guessed by the title that I feel somewhat locked down at the nursing home, and you would be right!

Don't misunderstand me. I love being indoors for a spell. No carrying heavy bags around; no idiot responses on the bus or train as you travel; no worrying about where to sleep at night.

Oh, I'm not complaining. I just wish there was some way to get out when I want.

I recognize the need to protect the residents here. There are a great many infirm individuals here and the increase of predators is no mistake, after all.

I just hope there might be room for thinking staff members to evaluate residents on their behaviour and not follow mindless scripts.

I worry just a bit about what will happen to the homeless now and after the Presidential election. It seems there is not much that any of the candidates would care to do about it. This could be just another President who would rather ignore the problem rather than deal positively with it.

Well, I've ranted enough for now. See you next time.

Bye-Bye!
