Better an I0U for once a month service that you both for weekly visits all year around errand running to stores, library, post office. A gift certificate for breakfasts at your home. An offer pet sitting while IOU's for anticipate with pleasure than a once a week visit that becomes a burden for both. You know best what your other commitments are.
