For future reference, I should NEVER be allowed to drive at night again. Why, you might ask? Because last evening, just after sunset, I set off to pick up a few necessities at the Publix grocery store nearest Doright Manor, and subsequently became totally lost on my way home.
Somehow, as dusk turned to full dark. I missed the turn onto the road that parallels our housing development and drove at least ten additional miles before I could find a safe place to turn around. I was a quivering mess by the time I pulled into our driveway at Doright Manor, having dodged obstacles both real and imagined. Those imagined ones are the absolute worst.
I told Studly Doright, after I finally convinced my legs to carry me into the house following my harrowing experience, that I am giving up driving at night. He asked, “Does that include trips on your broom?”
If I could’ve found eye of newt and tongue of toad at the grocery store, he’d be in big trouble.

Peace, people!
That Studley has a pair on him xD

He’s likely not read Macbeth, so my poor husband has no idea what might befall him.

I don’t like driving at night anymore either, especially if it’s raining.

For me, night and rain -at the same time – is the worst. In some weird way the lack of evening sports activities for the kids has spared me driving which is a bit of a blessing in disguise …

Rain and night are an awful combination! I knew my night vision wasn’t great but last night it reached a new low.

I’ve no sense of direction, so daytime driving is an adventure. Driving at night?? Perish the thought!

Ha! Sounds like the kinds of conversations that happen regularly in this house! I’m not nearly as comfortable driving at night as I used to be. My eyes and light do some really wonky things anymore and it is really not fun.

That Studly cracks me up. But I do agree night driving can be a harrowing experience. Stay safe out there.

You guys are so funny. If I were Studly I would be wary of any ‘tea’ you might make him. 🙂
