I received a text from Chris Talaga. She moved in the spring to Florida to be nearer to her daughter. I remember no matter how early I went down to breakfast; I would always find Chris in the game room watching the latest news on the TV.
Chris wrote the following:
I am doing great in Florida. I've met a lot of residents here at Overture Hamlin. I am keeping busy with a lot of activities, and I am learning new games (poker, rummikub etc.,) I also love the aqua aerobics, yoga, and balance classes. We do a lot of crafts. We also have happy hour every week. We only get breakfast two days a week. but there is a dinner and a late lunch once a week, Every morning there is a fresh fruit basket and ice water. We also have parties with a DJ and lots of dancing. There is bingo every week with prizes. Movie nights come with popcorn, snacks, and soda. Here at Overture Hamlin they also celebrate each person's birthday with a Happy Hour which includes food and cake for everyone along with a card signed by the Staff. There is also a musician, DJ or karaoke with singing and dancing.
Our life coordinator does a super job with plenty of activities. She also has other office duties so there is only four on staff. I think that is why our rent is less than Avenida.
I would love to hear from friends at Avenida. You can text me at 630-997-6102 or email me at talagachris@gmail.com.
