Bee Hive Homes

My 28 year old SIL recently built herself an assisted living home. She owns the franchise for it in Lubbock, Texas. It is NICE! There is one in our little bity town in New Mexico and is equally as nice. It looks like a real country HOME. It's 12 bedrooms, each with it's own bathroom. A nice big living room w/ fireplace and TV, and adjoining dining room with 4 dining tables, where the residents not only eat, but visit, have 42 tourneys (that's a dominoes game), play cards, etc. There is also a player piano for some entertainment (my FIL bought it for her on Ebay), and my FIL goes down there with his fiddle and plays for them sometimes. SIL also brings her two kids in with her sometimes (they are 4 and 1) and the residents just love them to death. She brings in a hairlady once a week to fix up hair for the ladies. There is a big front porch with rocking chairs overlooking a little league sports field, and the back yard has a garden area for fresh grown veggees.

Not that this will help you. But just tooting her horn for her. I go down and visit myself if I happen to be in Lubbock (it's a two hour drive for me, but I like to go to Sam's club and Old Navy). All the residents seem VERY happy with it. SIL was inspired to build one of this company's homes after her husband's grandmother was in our local one. SIL has her RN and bachelor's in nursing.
