So much gratitude!

in gratitudechallenge •  5 years ago 

After riding in my son's new car and seeing how smart it is, it made me realize that it has a lot of features that would make driving much simpler for me. My problem is that even if I drive somewhere I'm going to be sitting there in the car! I would still need somebody along with me to help me with my mobility scooter, so I might as well just let that person do the driving to!

Yeah, good point. Hopefully that's the next step in self driving cars - getting them set up so that maybe your mobility scooter could be integrated with the car, and you could just ride it out after you park. I'm sure there'd be a a huge call for something like that...

That would be a dream come true! Right now I am feeling pretty stuck.

I can imagine, @melinda010100. Even with two drivers in the family (and two more who will hopefully be driving soon), I feel pretty stuck most days as well, especially since one works more than full time, and the other has been dealing with health issues of her own. You'd think after all this time, I'd be used to having to have other people drive me around, but it's frustrating, as I'm sure you know. But your amazing and positive attitude always reminds me to stop focusing on the negative, and remember the positive side of things, so thank you. 💜

I have friends who say, Call any time you need a ride. But they work until 5 and that doesn't help me out with an 11am doctor's appointment! What I miss most is Jim saying Let's go to New Orleans. Or How soon could you be ready to leave for Wyoming? We had the best adventures together and it's still hard for me to come to terms with that being over.

Oh, wow @melinda010100 - I can see why you'd have a hard time with that. It sounds like he was an amazing person, and that you had a wonderful time together. I've had friends say the same, or offer to come get me to go on some adventure, but it never seems to work out. It all makes me so much more appreciative of being able to connect with people such as yourself, here in cyber crypto land! 🤗

I love that things have evolved so that much of my social life is online these days! I love my Steem friends!
