The DU Lounge
Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsA New Detour As My Life Winds Down
My brother and room mate since 2006 passed away this month. Looking into assisted living. A friend who is a social worker set me up with a place. Was supposed to meet with them but I was informed that 10 people tested positive for Covid. Meeting is reset for next week. I feel the way I did before the first day of kindergarten. I'd appreciate any tips about hiding my cash ( not the Papillon method ). I'll miss my huge DVD collection. Cutting down from thousands to a couple of bags of my favorites. Life is full of shocks and surprises.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
