An older man, living alone, decided he wanted to add a pet companion to his life. After thinking long and hard about the decision, he buys a parrot and brings it home. However, the parrot almost immediately starts insulting the older man and gets really rude. In a moment of frustration, the man picks up the parrot and tosses it into the freezer to teach it a lesson. But when the bird stops squawking, the man panics and opens the freezer. The parrot walks out, looks up at the man, and says, “I apologize for offending you, and I humbly ask your forgiveness.” The man replies, “Well, thank you. I forgive you, and I’m sorry too.” The parrot then says, “If you don’t mind my asking… what’d the chicken do?”

Prayer for Good Health for Seniors: God grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway, the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference.

Meet the Newest Residents: Butterflies! Beauty abounds in our west courtyard, home to the Butterfly Garden donated by the Healthy Habitats Gardening Program associated with Denver’s Butterfly Pavilion. The goals are simple. Create more places for butterflies, humming-
birds, and good insects to thrive. The native plants we are growing do just that. Additionally, they engage our residents. Residents care for the plants and learn about the insects and plant life. Butterfly kits have been provided now to expand our resident’s participation in the garden and their overall enjoyment of the winged creatures fluttering about.
