Some of our friends have moved out of their houses because they found taking care of them a burden. Although statistics tell us that most of our generation would prefer to remain in their homes, it is a very personal and difficult decision.

We love our home so we are making some adjustments to help us stay here as long as possible. Peter has mowed our lawn for the last time. And because we have lost our battle with some very aggressive weeds, we’ve hired a gardener. He and his co-workers were here last week.  In just a few hours, they transformed our garden (and mowed the lawn).

Why did we wait so long?
