It isn't actually finished yet, but a friend of mine is putting together a resource listing for seniors in New Hampshire, which also should be very useful for those of us who help take care of seniors. I would give it a week or so, but check out www.seniorsnh.com - Resources for Senior Citizens in New Hampshire.
I've started a rant on insurance, because I think some of the new insurance plans are a scam aimed at ripping off seniors. As soon as the rant is done I'll post it.

The things we do for seniors
One thing that makes life very difficult for seniors, and we are rarely in short supply of in New Hampshire is snow. I had asked my brothers boys to go help but as my elder uncle described it, "they showed up with two men and one short handled shovel to try to do the roof, so I sent them away.
This seems as appropriate as anything for a first post. There are resources out there for living, and transportation, and fuel assistance, but snow? Nope. So there we were, my husband and I, at dusk in waist deep snow roof raking my uncles house. I know he lives in a neighborhood of senior citizens and I felt bad for them with their unshoveled roofs but it took over an hour for us to do just the one.
Oh well, the things we do to help our seniors....
