W y s i w y G, we're too spread out, here in NH (except in the cities). Here in Nottingham, we're at least twenty miles from everywhere. That service is only offered in a couple cities.

Besides, the problem right now is the driveway -- ice, mud and constantly changing conditions. So far I haven't had any serious problems with the driveway -- I've got an AWD Subaru. But I might have to park the car up above the mud zone -- and that's way too far for Tom to walk. Tom's not walking anywhere near as well as he was earlier this year. He's still fighting the cellulitis on his left foot, the undiagnosed neuropathy (caused by bad circulation, not diabetes), and weakness from two weeks of inactivity.

By the way, The Press Room is also out right now for Tom because of the condition of Portsmouth sidewalks and streets. Friday afternoon I couldn't climb over the snow from the car to the sidewalk; had to walk in the street to where the Press Room had shovelled a decent path. Tom could not have gotten to the sidewalk that way. I don't think he would have had a much better time even at the corner. Until the snow is GONE, Tom's out of luck.

I have to weigh the desire or necessity of getting Tom to and from the car with the risks. It's very exhausting...for him and for me!

Believe me, I know what services are available!
