Few things say summer like fresh corn, and
roasting it brings out its natural sweetness. Leave
the shucks on and roast at 350 for about 30

Im Not Ready Yet! Or, How to Face Our Fears to Reap the Rewards.
When I began working with prospective residents in Continuing Care Retirement Communities
(CCRCs), I saw N.R.Y. listed under some names. New to the industry, I didnt understand what that
meant. I heard people say they would call if they needed us they were still working, driving, and
gardening, and werent ready. It didnt make sense the residents I knew led incredibly active lives.
After about three days I realized that the perception of CCRCs was not in line with the reality.
N.R.Y. or not ready yet meant: Im scared.
The reality is that CCRCs are populated with adults 62+ who have been successful decision makers
throughout their lives. They are pro-active, implementing a plan for their futures, adding years to
their lives and life to their years, all in a maintenance-free environment. Initially, they were perhaps
fearful. They thought they were too young or healthy, or were too attached to their home. But they
realized that CCRCs enhance lives and allow them to continue living as they had. They could work,
volunteer and remain active in the community while enjoying the cultural, educational and wellness
offerings of the CCRC. Its a change of address, not a change of purpose.
Fear of aging is normal, but allowing fear to impact decision-making is not. Putting your head before
your heart can lead to a fiscally and physically strong future. Think of us as a resource, and please
dont hesitate to call or come by with any questions!
