My son K took these photos of the Flatiron Building in downtown Toronto.
I found this interesting news article where companies such as Paypal and a startup company called Kabbage are financing small online businesses as online shopping grows. The point is that no banks are involved here. Business is changing quite fast due to the internet, even banks are starting to be affected.
The church choir was very inspiring yesterday, the 4 men and 8 women sounded so good, I found myself unconsciously swaying to the music before I corrected myself! The deacon remarked on the crowds at the Easter service compared to the lesser numbers yesterday.
My mother in law at 82 is mentally ready to move into a seniors home. She had a mini stroke a few months ago and doesn't feel comfortable living alone anymore. We found a seemingly great place near where she lives and they are having an open house in a few weeks. It looks great online, in fact, I wouldn't mind moving in there one day (well not before my time). They have an interesting schedule of activities. It all boils down to whether one can afford to live in these nice places and of course what their waiting list is like. Of course the more independently you can live the better.

That building looks like it belongs in the Victorian age! Hope you find the right place for your MIL, I know how hard it is. Valerie
What a great building, I'd love to sit across the street and sketch that. Hope you find somewhere nice for your MIL, it's a difficult time, particularly if the senior is resistant to change, but it sounds like your MIL knows this is the answer.
David and I hope to die in our house. As long as we have each other, we'll be okay.
Wow that staircase looks neat - though with my fear of heights I would never ever get on it!

The building look great. It probably nice to go on the staircase and watched the overview of the place:)
