I recently turned 70 so I think I can call myself an old lady now. I need a sitter because I am a Quaker and go to many Quaker gatherings that range from a long weekend to a full week.

Home & location

I live in a wonderful apartment in an old barn. The south wall (not visible from the road) is mostly windows. There is a large open space with an eating area and a desk under the loft (with a printer and high speed wi-fi) and cathedral

Carol and I chatted a few times before I arrived so I understood specific things to consider when sitting in her cool barn apartment. Her welcome guide is
