It's great to have a job,
a home, a family, education, and the freedom to vacation where we want,
when we want, and with whom we want. But, what would happen if we
lost our freedom? Would we be able to worship as we desire, get the
education we want so we can get the job we want. America is a wonderful
place to live, but if we don't have our freedom to live in a safe and civilized
community, we will live in fear and chaos. The American Dream can
only be fulfilled in a free society.
The helpful links below will educate
the reader on how to keep, and save our society from losing our freedoms.
You can check out some other links on the "Balance"
VIP Links page. Be sure to check out the books from Amazon too.
I've picked out books that I own myself or hope to own someday. Don't
forget to vote every time you have an opportunity and good luck in your
journey towards a Healthy Society.
Lots of love from Brenda (Jared's
Mom)
RETIREMENT WITH A GRIN-
By Unknown
Recently I was checking my 401k account and thinking about
retirement, as everyone does when they hit their 60's. I saw an article
about nursing and retirement homes and their expenses. Then it hit me...
No nursing home for me!
Here is my plan: I'm checking into the Holiday Inn!
With the average cost for a nursing home reaching $188
per day, there is a better way when we get old and feeble. I checked on
reservations at the Holiday Inn and found that for a combined long-term
stay discount and senior discount, it's $49.23 per night. That leaves $138.77
a day for breakfast, lunch, dinner in any restaurant I want, or room service,
(and some hotels are now offering a complimentary breakfast every morning,
too).
This will leave enough for laundry, gratuities, and special
TV movies. Plus, I'll get a swimming pool, a workout room, a lounge,
and washer and dryer. I'll also get free toothpaste, razors, shampoo and
soap. And one can't forget the daily changed bath towels, plenty of toilet
Paper, ice for my water and pop, free paper cups and a free newspaper at
my door in the morning.
And I'll be treated like a customer, not a patient. Five
dollars worth of tips a day will have the entire staff scrambling to help
me.
There is a city bus stop out front, and seniors ride free.
The handicap bus will also pick me up if I fake a decent limp. To meet
other nice folks you can call for a church bus on Sundays. For a change
of scenery, take the airport shuttle bus and eat at one of the nice restaurants
there. While you're at the airport, fly somewhere. Meanwhile, the cash
keeps building up....
