Glad I was of some help, here is a little more: I go to a dentist that used to have an office a few blocks from my house, then he moved twice and I moved a few times, now it's about a 90 mile round trip. He knows this and tries to schedule all the work in one visit that can be done, such as a cleaning plus xrays and an exam, or sometimes two procedures. He has done a crown and a root canal in two to three visits. It sure saves me a lot of driving and lost time from work. The next thing is banking, you have a computer, and obviously a phone, you should be able to do most of your banking without leaving home! It may take some effort to set it up, but you can get most checks direct deposited, and most bills paid from your accounts. Also, if you have accounts in more than one bank, or savings and loan, why not consolidate them to the most convenient arrangement? We also had a lot of discussion about how many places that deliver food or ready made meals. That depends on you location, but you might save some driving by making some phone calls.
