Things are about to change, in that you’re selling the home and moving into a senior living facility. While you’ve covered the basics of what to expect, it’s hard not to wonder exactly how things will be once you’re settled in the Fountain Hills senior living community. Here are a few examples of what’s likely to happen:.
The days when you had to plan meals are over. There’s now a dining area with prepared meals waiting for all the residents. It won’t take long to get into the habit of checking the posted menu to see what’s available each day. Best of all, you won’t have to deal with cleaning the kitchen after meals.
Don’t be surprised if you find yourself being more social. That’s because the community is composed of people who are more or less in your age bracket. There’s a good chance that many of them have similar tastes in music, hobbies, and other interests. Within a matter of days, you may find that you look forward to coffee with some, a game or two with others, or even going on a supervised shopping event with a new friend.
Last but not least, some of the tension that’s been your constant companion for the last few years will be gone. As your health declined, concerns about not being able to do as much caused some worry. The fact that you lived alone and no one would know if you fell or sustained an injury also preyed on your mind. As part of a Fountain Hills senior living community, there will always be help around when you need it.
While any change means having to adapt, you will likely soon feel comfortable in your new living situation. Make the most of it, and enjoy those new friends. Doing so will make the years to come all the better.
