Re: Checking in,... Missie

[Guest guest]

Hi Missie

Your Mom is right about the ranch unless you find a home with ramps....

My home in Texas was a ranch - but my kids home, where I live now is not.... and

it is getting harder and harder for me to make those three steps....sometimes I

have to pause before I can get up them.... my knees seem to be flaring now too

so I am not sure what is going to happen....

I used to have a New Beetle - and I got to where I could not drive it due to the

operating the stick and the clutch....

It really stinks what we have to give up - - but at least we can still drive

automatics

daughter turns 5 and has to go to city schools. We went to visit my parents

last weekend,

and my Mom pointed out to me, that we're going to have to buy a ranch for when

I have

really bad days. It never crossed my mind, but she's right. Then, that turned

into my next

car being an automatic. That SUCKS. I love driving stick. That's my favorite

thing about

driving. . I'm sorry about your flare, and I really hope you feel better

soon. *hugs*
