Image for BCOF members to put in their blogs Prompt: "What is your favorite room in your house?"

I don't live in a house. I live at the West Virginia Veterans Home, an assisted living facility. My room is about the size of a college dorm room. It isn't very big but then I don't need much at my age. I guess my favorite spot in my room would be my bed. I spend an extraordinary amount of time lying on it. I either do reviews, blog on here, or watch television. College starts back Tuesday so I will soon add class to the schedule. Aside from that there is little to do. I don't guess it's too bad though. When I lived by myself there was even less to do. I was depressed and lonely all the time. At least here there are people around, even if I do pretty much stay in my room by myself most of the time. They treat us pretty good here, though sometimes the rules seem a little trite. I guess you have to have rules in a facility like this because some of the people would take advantage otherwise.

I get a fresh start every morning when I wake up. At my age, every day is a blessing and a fresh start. I have coronary artery disease, which resulted in by-pass surgery a few years ago. After that I swore never to take life for granted and I try to live up to that. Dying would not be a good start. I mean, dying is a new start to a Christian but I'm in no hurry to do so. The thought of being dead does not worry. I just fret about the process of dying. I don't want to linger. I certainly don't want to suffer. let's just get it over with!
