I now drive every day, but have never driven longer than a few minutes. Love my small city. Can get anywhere in 10 mins or less.
Long trips, I get chauffeured.

Glad to hear from you also Ms. Rio! I am really happy that you are doing so well!
Nothing wrong with being chauffeured. That is what I have to do.
Maybe someday we will all be able to return to driving. Until then- being chauffeured works. Love to you all and especially you Ms. Rio  .
