Wow, when I looked at the last time I posted, I realized I could do better. When we visited RM at Thanksgiving, our car, with 260,000 miles decided it was time to quit. We were two hours out of DC when the transmission went out on the toll road. Fortunately we found a man near us in Ohio who transports cars for a living. He drove four hours to load our car and take us home. It was an interesting ride home riding four hours in a tow truck. (Don't tell him, but it was tiring listening to him talk nonstop. But I should not complain because he did do us a big favor) We can drive it on short trips but wouldn't trust it for long ones. So we are car shopping in earnest.
Today we had invited friends over for a brunch. Earlier they had left a message that the wife was sick and they could not come. We did not learn that until the meal was about ready. It turns out that we have friends next door who were willing to help out.

Glad you made it home OK> Also glad to see you back on-line.
I hope this would be the introduction to a new car, but it sounds like that is still in the works.
Frustrating to make a big meal and then only find out the cancelation at the last minute
ahhh thank you for your service Camry! Indeed it sucks when people cancel last minute but pleasant you were able to surprise some friends with good news.
