However, everywhere I turn is someone who remembers me and it's like old home week when I visit now. Before my mother moved, our visits were contained mostly to her house. Now that we're out and about, the world abounds with people from our past.<br /><br />It's kind of fun and comforting that there are so many around that we could call on in an emergency to help my mother.Live and Learnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13493777474885053903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315851262843522940.post-12674276357728587062016-05-30T18:42:07.302-04:002016-05-30T18:42:07.302-04:00Sounds like silly fun.

I intend on periodically taking her back "home", staying in a motel, and having her visit her friends. Driving by her old house, visiting the cematery, that kind of thing. I love how kind everyone was as you went your way through town. You are right, you can really only go forward, and it helps to have a positive mindset.
