Did I ever tell you of the ladies in the nursing home who refused to go out to activities before they'd put their lipstick on? Half their teeth missing, they'd run a comb through their hair, apply liberal amounts of powder and lipstick, and then pronounce themselves ready. I'd wheel them down to bingo or exercises or whatever the fun was that day. Some would take purses with them wherever they went - special musician, in-house hair salon, or "bowling". (plastic ball and pins.) I always loved the ones who loved to look nice to walk or be wheeled down the hall. One used to be a jazz singer who met Ella Fitzgerald.
