Funny you mention the tea—mine’s black with a splash of milk, and I swear half the new folks think I’m joking when I say “no sugar.” It’s true though, sometimes the newer aides have clever tricks. One gal showed me how to use a denture tablet to clean my coffee mug stains. Still, there are days I’d trade all the cost-cutting hacks for someone who remembers my bedtime routine without asking twice... but I guess change keeps us on our toes.

Couldn’t agree more—sometimes I’d give up all the clever tricks for a bit of consistency. That said, I did pick up a handy tip from a new aide: apparently, denture tablets also work wonders on tea kettles. Who knew? Change keeps us guessing, but it does make for interesting stories.
