From Jane Drake:
A very good friend of mine needs in-home care for six months, starting anytime and including her surgery date of Dec. 15. She is a delightful person and easy to get along with. Her husband, who is blind, works out of the house, and they have a son who is 20. They have a lot of critters in their home!
The person’s main job would be to clean, do laundry, and make three square meals a day. No heavy lifting. No patient care. Person does not need to speak English OR drive. They must live in (they will have their own room and bath). It could also lead to a permanent position.
True? Good friends are like stars; you don't always see them, but you know they are there!

Let Rosemary or me know if you would like one or both performances.

It takes a certain maturity of mind to accept that nature works as steadily in rust as in roses.
