Hello @shirleymac

Your situation is one that many people face. It would be good for your husband to have more activities and it would be good for you to have some time for yourself. Becky, @becsbuddy, and, @janet7, have offered some good suggestions for accomplishing this task.

I'm wondering if you have contacted your county's Council on Aging to see what services might be available? This might be a good first start. Also, your husband's doctor might be able to refer you to a social worker who could offer you some suggestions.

Will you post again and let me know how you are doing?

Thanks for all the ideas! I will call the local agency on aging, today and look into options for him to get out.
Yes, after no vacations or breaks in about 11 years. I feel like I can’t see past the routine, sometimes. I will let you know how it goes.
