Yesterday, Dad and I (Amy) went driving up to and around West Bend in preparation for his upcoming road test on Thursday. He has a few things to work on, but all in all, I feel that he drives pretty well. Of course, he merges onto the freeway like your typical old fart, but I don't think that is a failable offense. The issue of stopping at a green light when he makes a right turn is another thing. He is now at least aware of this tendency; who knows, he may have been doing this for years. We laughed about how this may be the age-old question of teaching an old dog new tricks! This 2 month process of trying to retain his driver's license has mentally eased Dad into the possibility of losing his license for good. He can take the road test up to 5 times in a year and there is also the possibility of taking a local test which would be given in and around his own community. That would mean a "restricted" license within a designated number of miles from his home.
In the evening, we had meatloaf at mom and dad's. Meatloaf is a favorite of Michael's and Dad's, and Mom used to hate meatloaf. But nowadays, she isn't quite as picky if you sit down together at their table for a good meal. For side dishes, we had mashed potatoes from a box and sauteed turnip greens with bacon.
