thanks Muzbry.
Yes I am hoping to venture out on my own in May for a couple of short trips, once the grandkids are back at school, and have told my son and daughter in law that I wont be able to babysit one year old on a regular basis.
After that, as soon as my sister and brother in law are ready to travel in June and July I plan to accompany them, or maybe lead, a trip to somewhere...the route of which is at this time is still being planned.
Not sure whether you are aware that
John died suddenly mid November and I am facing a very different rest of my life without him by my side. I have managed to tow my van away to Victoria on my first trip, and just this morning took it to Nowra, approximately 80 kms up the Highway, for long awaited warranty repairs. It will apparently be away from the yard for a couple of weeks at least.
It is amazing what you can learn to do when you have to..but I cannot contemplate how horrible life would be if I just stayed
home alone. We loved our trips so much and had planned many more and I'm not ready to give them up until something prevents me from doing them.
And...I'm going to Vietnam (first trip overseas) in August for the 50th anniversary of the Battle of Long Tan.
John was a Vietnam vet, a conscript, with TPI status however seemed to be such a fit and
well man! I am sure it will be a very emotional trip for me, but one I feel I must do.
end of rant...sorry...but you asked!
cheers Heather
