They've both passed on now, but I had family as residents where I currently work (which is how I found out about activities). My sister used to work there too, and during her off hours (I was only 12 at the time...too young to work!), we would bring in my two little Pekes to visit family, but then they would go see the residents! Both my puppies and the residents loved it!

2018-01-23 07:45:08 PM kristenamrein @bthomas, "Minute To Win It" is a game show where you take a series of everyday objects (like tissue boxes, ping pong balls, etc) and complete a certain task. The problem is, you have a minute to do the task. If you don't do it in the minute alloted, you lose a life. Lose 3 lives and you're out.
