I had asked my friend who arranged the dinner to make it for October. She didn't want to do that, begged me to come, yet she knows I have a hard time with hot weather. The original venue was a lovely, well-established restaurant that would have been an easy drive for me (and for others, as well). Then my friend changed the location to a different part of the city, one with heavy traffic and much harder for me to get to.

When I made the decision I felt a burden off my shoulders. Really, my priority this week is to make it to my therapy session tomorrow, since I've missed so many sessions lately. And my hope is that after my session I'll be able to go to the grocery store.

Supposedly, next week's weather will be somewhat more bearable than the current inferno is.

I’m so sorry it’s not going to work out. Are you terribly disappointed? I hate that. Your reasoning is sound though.
