We are all guilty of rushing through life, never taking the chance to just slow down to relax. We spend our life working jobs we don't really like just to pay the mortgage and raising our children. When the kids are finally grown and you have retired you just want a chance to slow down and enjoy your last few years. When you get to this point you should think about looking into a senior living community.

A retirement community is not the same thing as a nursing home. It is in fact quite different. These communities have beautiful modern apartments with gardens and some of them even have a pool. They are not all the same they differ depending on the community that you choose. Most of these communities are located in warm climates because that's where most people want to retire.

Columbia MO has many different communities for the elderly. They have so much to offer their residents like apartments with different designs and floor plans that you can decorate however you like. Some will even allow you to have your own pets in your apartment.

You can also choose between assisted living and independent living. Some seniors need assistance everyday while others are ale to lie alone without assistance. Most of these places have a cleaning crew that comes every week to do the laundry and clean your home for you. You also have a number of different activities that you can participate in with other people your age.

There is also transportation available so that you can go shopping or to a movie. It is nothing like living in a nursing home. It is just a wonderful place to retire that offers a little assistance when you need it. They have managers and nurses that also live in the community so there is always someone there if you need them.

They also let you have overnight guest for up to seven nights at a time. However, some of the rules will be a little different at the different communities. The beautiful apartments are very affordable and most of the time the utilities are included with the price of the apartment. If you are thinking about moving into a community for seniors it is a good idea to visit several different ones in the area you prefer to live, so that you can choose the one you like most.

This will be your new home but you will always feel like your on a permanent vacation. Some of these places even have parties during the holiday seasons and have movie nights and games so you can mingle with the other residents.

You will be able to make lots of new friends and there is always something for you to do. You will also be amazed at the kitchens these places have. They serve food that is mostly made from scratch. It is nothing like hospital food it is like a great restaurant. Your apartment will have a kitchen but the nights you don't want to cook you can just go eat at the community kitchen. The apartments for the assisted living do not usually have kitchens for safety purposes.
