2017-11-15 07:43:06 PM ruthiesister right now we are working on decoration for the hospital float ,
2017-11-15 07:43:22 PM lynmyhre Great ideas...helping to make things for the benefit of Long Term residents would certainly be a mindful and purposeful activity for short term folks

2017-11-15 07:44:12 PM edgarrod thats great yes indeed
2017-11-15 07:44:26 PM lindsaylu85 one problem i run into with my swb are they feel if they participate in group activities then they will take away from the long residents
2017-11-15 07:44:27 PM ruthiesister yes you have to make it useful they have to feel like they can still be helpful in the community and if they feel they are helping someone esle they are more likely to help you
2017-11-15 07:45:01 PM ren a really good idea
2017-11-15 07:45:06 PM ruthiesister you have to tell them if they can help someone that needs help it will help with them coming
2017-11-15 07:45:41 PM lindsaylu85 i pair them together. if i can get them to like bingo i sit them next to someone who needs help
2017-11-15 07:45:55 PM lynmyhre I've read a lot of research on giving and volunteerism...it is a huge factor in personal well-being.
2017-11-15 07:46:07 PM ruthiesister so if you have a swb patient that use to play but doesn
2017-11-15 07:46:40 PM ruthiesister doesn't anymore ask them if they can help with a patient that having trouble and it might work
2017-11-15 07:47:00 PM ruthiesister or a guy that did wood working can help with a mens group
2017-11-15 07:47:28 PM ruthiesister or a lady that sew or crouchet see if they can help with the group
2017-11-15 07:48:10 PM ruthiesister does that sound like somethng that might work for you guys

I tried...but it was frustrating my spouse who handles our money...Had to stop...now I'm the bad guy when it should not have been done to begin with...not sure how to fix it but am working on it

2017-11-22 06:50:10 PM camparan87 is the specialty chat today?
2017-11-22 06:50:22 PM christinadepolo hello, I assume there is a specialt chat this evening. Wasn't sure due to the holiday tomorrow
2017-11-22 06:50:56 PM christinadepolo not sure, I am not sure where they would post it if it were rescheduled or cancelled
2017-11-22 06:51:30 PM christinadepolo It is to start at 8pm , I guess we will just wait and see.
2017-11-22 06:52:01 PM camparan87 this is my first time doing a specialty chat so i dont know
2017-11-22 06:52:11 PM christinadepolo same here
2017-11-22 06:52:47 PM christinadepolo I just started the ME2 OWNPACE last week.
2017-11-22 06:53:53 PM camparan87 i am on the MEPAP1-090517

2017-11-22 06:54:41 PM camparan87 was the final hard?
2017-11-22 06:56:01 PM christinadepolo yes, I remember thinking I will never get through ME1.... nothing different from mid term, just give yourself a week to review all the informations since it covers from beginning to end
2017-11-22 06:57:20 PM christinadepolo Thankfully it was an open book exam, but becomes nerveracking when you have to search through pages and pages of information. I print out everything, just easier for me to read and highlight important information
2017-11-22 06:57:26 PM camparan87 is it timed to
2017-11-22 06:57:56 PM christinadepolo yes, same 2 hrs, but it goes by quickly as you know, lol
