When are we going home?
Mom was never great at directions. Dad did the bulk of the driving for their 62 years of marriage. Mom did drive herself to work daily when I was a teen and older, and she knew how to navigate to their cabin about an hour away from home. I posted before about her decision to surrender her car keys in 2022. But this is a location issue of a different sort. She is often not sure where she is, and is concerned about what she has to do to prepare to "go home". There are several common concerns she shares - one of the most frequent is that we are at the cabin and need to pack up to go home. She will ask me several times per day (especially into the evening) where her suitcases are, or whether she has time to do a load of laundry before we go home. In real life, the cabin has no laundry facilities. And we sold it more than four years ago to help to fund our bachelorette pad. When I have driven somewhere on business she will sometimes think that she has been the one to go on a trip....
