MY BIPOLAR MOTHER

I am the daughter of a bipolar mother. My experiences with my mother, family, and friends teach me everyone's reality is different and perception is the friend or the foe of the day. I am hoping my posts give insight to those who are curious and give comfort to those who see a parallel. I invite feedback and look forward to collaboration. It is my focus to spread joy, even on dark days. Smiles can be effortless or the workout of the day. Thanks for reading!

RETIREMENT COMMUNITY OPENING UP DURING COVID 19, ADJUSTING TO OPENING UP

 



For record-Many people NOT wearing masks in common areas after notice re dining. Obviously dining OK BUT many people sitting together NO distancing & NO masks.

I wore mask to get lunch in my own container as charging $450 month to deliver

For my Bday I will treat myself to pickup lunch for 2 meals (dinner) & can do my own Raisin Bran milk for bkfast-no meals here-too risky like in person restaurant dining

After that will alternate meals between pickup meals out meals get slowest time here in my own container & my own grocery supplies. No regular meal times except w my groceries Bkfast late, lunch 1pm here & dinner after 6pm. Still have wait. Just so unhealthy compared to my Stoneleigh place w regular healthy meals most time

More noise disruption here & men do NOT temp check back w fans including dining area while people eat

So unhealthy & risky here. Most think cause got vaccine distancing & wearing masks is OVER. Safer in my own place

Lisa is standing right there watching people NOT distancing or wearing masks

Guess w her crossed 🤞🏽

 

I think I'm missing something... why are they charging for delivery? Why are you using your own container? Is the dining room open now?

 

Sorry -Dining room opened today with much confusion & many not social distancing or wearing masks in middle trucks guys w loads fans (tough w humidity) plus piles wet carpet & pads piled out side & back.

Plus part compliment from serving staff for my nice notes write. Already changed serving times mid stream cause most want to come at same time with no back up plan today & going into weekend.

No floor by floor just free for all

It'd be funny if not for crowds, no masks outside dining area. People free for all 5 at table no masks ok but 2 person tables.

I am not only one wanting to avoid no masks in required mask areas. We are "to go " ones-I brought my own container cause charging extra all & $450 month delivery to room IF HAVE COVID VACCINE.

Those no vaccine still get free delivery. I wanted point out going on in lots Old Gizzer places as think Oh Safe now-I can do what I want. Expect more hopefully better notices next week-it's kinda chaos & noisy-fans, people celebrating "mask freedom" & NO SOCIAL DISTANCING. Some sitting far away possible looking dazed.

I am somewhere in between going at slow times check on Liz sent (not here yet & overrun w packages) & picking up cold lunch for dinner & made sandwich for lunch.

Anyway BIG DEAL $450 month charge for anything delivered to our room-go get it yourself!

Ha ha need nap 💤

Tried to put C2 B3 labels on tables etc but just got confusing-no one knew where sit or if that was their table

Not enough specific info & items left off new menu what want like drink etc

Hard day on staff & free for all for residents who read notice IF HAD VACCINE DO ANYTHING!

 

Thanks for the extra details 🤩

Hoping staff will give Lisa feedback and the process will improve daily

Sending hugs 🤗

 

Also $15 day charge times 30 days for $450 monthly fee which makes it unaffordable I think for most. Sort of negative for those cooperatively got vac shot & rewarding those did not w "free" room service.  Oh well who says logic prevails. My compromise "to go" containers I do myself to stay safe😷Until.

Hugs to U🤗🥰

 

It's good to know those in the dining room are vaccinated. I'm hoping the residents who aren't confirmed are just in cue for theirs soon. Also hopefully the cuisine will improve once the supply chain recovers and staff will gain efficiency with daily routine. Love ya very much 💜🌻🥰💜🌻🥰💜🌻🥰

 

I went down for my Turkey sandwich on wheat berry bread. ONLY STALE WHITE BREAD LEFT SO SAY. So far behind making & delivering crap  meals to those  opted out or no vaccines It will be 7 or later before get meal

I WANT OUT OF THIS PLACE

I WILL NEVER GET DECENT OR HOT MEAL AGAIN. Their intent treat us like herd animals

IT MORE THAN SUCKS

Monday I am ordering nice loaf bread & microwave meals & maybe even ice cream from TT & NEVER GOING DOWN THERE AGAIN!

I WANT OUT IF THIS HELL HOLE!!! They cannot even serve ones go dining area cause short on staff & DO NOT CARE (MANAGEMENT) This gone from bad to worse

I WANT SAFETY & MY PRIVACY & not for $450 month!!!!!!!

5-7 vacancies on 3rd floor alone Who would want live in this hell hole or any other

RETIREMENT HOMES ALL KINDS LIKE CHEAP VERSIONS OF BOARDING SCHOOLS-Let's shove our older family in one & tell w it!!!!!!!!
