Elle, we love you! will help foot the bill for the surgery! As far as saving $ on gas - well - the home we would have built in Waco was only about 10 minutes drive from his office. Presently, we live a 30 minute drive from the prison. When he was working for the college, it, too was out near the prison, so we both filled our tanks every week. Now we will drive in his car together. His car has the wheelchair lift.
Last night, he said that he had just realized that he now had to go to work - Monday at 8:30 - and it made him HAPPY! I think that was very telling about how being unemployed has had its effect on him. So much for retirement for him.
As for money to buy fabric - I will now be able to buy/order all the fabric I need, but first on the list are books, thread & storage units. I want to re-do the sewing room! We started a list of all we want to do to the house, too.
