Today's podcast was inspired by a social media movement - #100OutOf100. This movement started after a comment Dr. Phil made on his show in March regarding Interable Couples. After learning of his comment and reading various responses, I was prompted to share my thoughts about love and relationships as I've grown to understand what I need. Take a listen and let me know what you think.

I never imagined I would need to move into an Assisted Living Facility at 44 years old BUT I did! I learned a great deal and am thankful for the experience. If you are looking into an Assisted Living Facility, make sure you consider its size, the activity level of residents, activities offered, room location, and visitation policy.
