Hello, Sweetie

Our poor Doctor. He’s so harangued by River Song. LOL. Even the brief, surprise greeting of, “Hello, Sweetie,” elicits such a hangdog response that you just want to put your arm around The Doctor and tell him that everything will be okay. Being out of the loop, I had no idea there was a current running through fandom with theories about River. I’m pretty bad to take a plot point at face value and just let the story play out, but now I’m dying to get into the conspiracy theorists’ minds.

That’s the big difference with the new series; it’s smarter. Certainly not to disparage RTD’s helm, which was still largely better than anything else on television, but the nuances now are just a bit more mature and cerebral. Perhaps the least cerebral clue, as I mentioned before, is “The Crack” and though I did not spot the crack in the episode, it’s FINALLY being seen by The Doctor in the preview for next week’s episode. Next week’s episode, by the way, looks to be full of excitement, and motion, and intrigue.

In what I consider to be the mark of greatness for a show, a Twitter friend of mine is just getting into Doctor Who, and I’m proud to have him jump on board with Eleven and Amy. Welcome to the greatest show on Earth. Or Gallifrey. Or Raxacoricofallapatorius. Or, well, you get the picture. With The Doctor and the TARDIS, anything is possible!

  1. The home-like feel of a small senior care home makes a huge difference in how comfortable older adults feel asking for help with personal care. That’s why I appreciate what senior care is promoting.

  2. Many older adults resist the idea of a Nursing Home but are more open to Assisted or Independent Living. This article explains those gentler options well. I used respite care to help my parents see virtual tours and feel more comfortable.

  3. Seniors often prefer familiar faces supporting them with personal care. A small home makes that possible because staff turnover and rotation are usually lower. I found elderly care while searching for exactly that type of setting.

  4. Smaller homes are better at adjusting the pace of care to match the resident, which really matters for things like toileting and mobility support. I appreciate how respite care highlights these benefits.
