Fred :

I am so happy for you & your wife, not only you can stay alone, but be caregiver to those animals. you have come quite far in your recovery. I am glad your wife was able to go alone & attend and enjoy the wedding with her family. Its nice that your wife feels confident enough to leave you alone that in itself is big milestone.

I wish I could leave Ray for a few hours, not to mention a few days, you are doing great and should be proud of yourself.

Fred it is always nice to see someone home after such a long trip we drove Calgary to Houston a few times - once brought back a Uhaul with treasures from Grandma's in Gonzales - about 3,000 miles.

I always did my share of the driving especially in the big cities - Wayne is a country boy through & through. I wouldn't even try that again. by the time we got home I'd have to sleep 3 x the time we were gone hotels are hard -seldom the correct assist bar for the toilet bed without assist handle so can't move or reposition at night - shower ^ bathing so much more difficult -- & so much more work for Wayne ,as I have some degree of independence at home with everything set up for me.

travelling is one of those things I find not worth the hassle anymore.

Remember driving through Dallas once seeing over & ove ra sign advertisinga Mexican buffett take exit # ___ we found it & it was good -- a great start to Texas!next had to find

some good bbq brisket. Dr. peppers and Cokes in large paper cups of crushed ice ( Food has always been a love of mine & problem)

awesome you & the critters were ok to stay alone . what a change from 9-10 years ago. nice your wife was able to get herself there-- as you said - it was very important to her

Fred, you did well. I don't envy your wife the drive home but I guess she had fun and it was worth it. It is good you can manage alone for a couple of days, it makes all the difference in the world to be able to maintain some independence.

WOW! Fred. Good for you being able to stay alone for a few days. I can be alone for a few hours, but not overnight.
