in Caring For a Spouse or Partner

You know you are in caregiver land when discovering a new restroom location is an exciting event! if we take a certain route and plan carefully, we can be out and about for a couple of hours now. Library has 2 large bathrooms, AG Hall, also has one, also local market next to the Post office. This has been our "safe" route and until today, I didn't dare try to extend the time to make more stops. Imagine my surprise when DH discovered a beautiful bathroom in the bakery /cafe . There , In big bold letters he saw the sign: RESTROOMS. I felt like I'd won the lottery! Now we can stay out a little longer....Its the little things :)

Best to all,

Maureen
