Rose has months to go before she will be cleared for driving. She feels a bit trapped due to her dependence on others to drive her places.
Now that packages are arriving for Christmas, I have given Rose the task of driving to the mailbox to get them.
Our driveway is a winding, gravel, single track through the woods. This is good practice. She drives to the gate and must do a three-point road turn to head back home. These trips are her tiny taste of freedom.
It’s a win:win. She likes the job and I don’t have to stop what I am doing to retrieve boxes.
