Well, in y...Hello Mel, and thanks for your comment!<br />Well, in your case, the shaking and not calming down is understable also due to the shock you must have had before, seeing your father in a condition that made it necessary for him to be taken to the emergency room.<br />I don't drive - but I wonder whether I'd be able to focus on driving if it was me who had to take someone to hospital urgently.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-29076296728160156172009-12-13T05:29:01.376+01:002009-12-13T05:29:01.376+01:00Happy to see you writing again!! You know, I'...Happy to see you writing again!! You know, I'm fairly "lucky", I suppose, because I don't have to do the type of traveling that you do. I drive everywhere that I go, but to be honest, when I'm out driving past, say 9 p.m., I do have a sense of uneasiness. Though, I would guess I'm fairly "safe" being in my truck, I still feel like anything could happen. A few months back I had to rush my father to the emergency room. Because we live so far in the country, it was almost an hour and a half drive. I had to leave him there, and drove back at 3 a.m.! The whole drive home I shook like a leaf and didn't calm down until I was safely in my bed! I completely understand what you're saying, but sadly do not have an answer for you!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00053169905144052535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-78918915614979034772009-12-08T20:25:05.125+01:002009-12-08T20:25:05.125+01:00Thank you, Nan, for stopping by!

Glad that some of what I write gets others thinking :-) I do find it homely when I approach a house, say, my parents' place, on a winter afternoon and I see lights in their windows.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-5741759216121155402009-12-07T21:47:39.178+01:002009-12-07T21:47:39.178+01:00I was so pleased to come by and see that you had w...I was so pleased to come by and see that you had written. And what an interesting subject. Because I do not work outside the house, I can get up in the morning when I wish. I know there are many people who enjoy getting up and watching the sky turn from night to day, but honestly it gives me the creeps. I don't like to get up until I don't need to turn the lights on. But on the other hand, I love these December days when the dark comes early. I love turning on the lights in the afternoon. As I write this - something I haven't really given any thought to until I read your words - I think how can this be? :<)Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.com
