Changes are Hard

Tomorrow at 10:00 in the morning, a moving truck will arrive at my grandmother's apartment to move her to an "independent living facility". It's a very nice place, but changes are hard. Giving up things you have had for a long time...things that you love, are hard. So is saying goodbye to being fully on your own and responsible. My grandmother is very anxious tonight, and I think tomorrow she will be even more so. She has always been a nervous person by nature, and this is going to take some adjustment.

On the positive side, the place she is going is lovely. It is only seven years old, very beautiful inside and out, with gorgeous grounds and walkways. There is a city park right behind it. She has a nice sized studio apartment with much more space that you would think. Her apartment is located very close to the elevator and a little diner, and there is a lot to do there. She will have quite the social life, once she gets going and meets others.

Pray for her. This won't be easy.
