@littlesister….do you have access to a wheeled chair? The push-only (not self-propelled) are lighter and cheaper….to keep in vehicle? I often use my wheelchair for a rolling walker and even bought one with hand brakes on the handles. I can walk so much further if I can lean on something and sit often. Grocery carts in the store work the same for me. But this would give your dh a ride and you some walking support…..depending on conditions of the roads and if there are hills. Wheelchairs on gravel roads are miserable.
My walking last nite turned odd. {so what else is new?} I walked one-tenth of a mile…..then jog/ran BACK to get fat horse out of skinny horse’s food. He sometimes is able to get the carabiner to release and runs in to poach her food. Drat him! THEN excited dog and I walked back that same one-tenth of a mile back again….to where we’d been interrupted. Hmph! That counts as THREE-tenths! I had to hurry cuz it was getting well into dusk …saw coyote run across road. So I brisk-walked 2 more tenths; turned around and came back 3 tenths. Total: 8 tenths! LOL I’d think it was PATHETIC to count tenths of mile except I’m still delighted to be able to DO that! 🙂 And I get to add the 6 tenths from that morning too. \0/
