Adios Pablo!

Some big news here this week. We've sold Pablo (my wheelchair van.) At first I tried to sell it privately, but what worked out best for us was just to sell it back to the company we bought it from in the first place.

It's still in our possession, but won't be soon. WOW! That's a very big deal. 

We've had Pablo for four years. We bought it just before the pandemic hit in January 2020. He was incredibly expensive. It's insane how much mobility tools are when you have to pay for them yourself. There are many programs to help families of disabled children, but not many for adults.

I'm relieved and ready to say "adios" to my good friend. Having it there in my driveway is a constant reminder of all the things I couldn't do and my reliance on others. Even though I occasionally drive it now. It's also expensive to maintain. It's not being used for its intended purpose. I'd rather pass it on to someone who can REALLY use it.

We have another car. A Kia Soul that has been a fantastic friend. Then my mother has a large Jeep Grand Cherokee. For now we're not looking to buy a second car. I am however on the hunt for a new bicycle!
