The day approaches...

[curmugeon]

For the time I'm back to my place, went to Anza to take care of a few things that upset my Mom, the holidays are hard this year. Got a Christmas card from my sister, she asked how Mom was doing, that's about all she cares. Got a bunch of chores to do for today, got to clean house, do laundry, buy some food for my cupboards, plus do a bit of simple things like find the vegetables I want, from brussel sprouts to yellow turnip (rutabaga) for the holiday meal. Also got to shop for some tires for the truck, and possibly another car, this time with an automatic transmission so my Mom can drive or find a driver. Why is it that so many people cannot drive a standard transmission?

I don't know. I can't drive a car, period.

I have a horrible fear of driving.

You need to learn...

In California we are a car culture. Also, I travel hundreds of miles in a week, from my Mom's place to her doctor is 40 miles one way and no bus service. If you ever want to learn and are in my area, we'll arrange a lesson.

Thanks, when I learn to sit behind the wheel without freaking out I'll take you up on that lesson. :)
