Tomorrow morning I'm driving alone from CT to Rochester NY to visit family. Then two days later I will be driving back, but will have my sister and her 3 year old with me.
It's about a 6 hour drive, without any rest stops, so I'm planning on it taking me 7-8 hours, to get there and probably a little longer to get back.
I have done this drive once before, back when my neice was about 6 months old, but I had my sister, neice, and brother in law with me both ways that time.
I have never driven that long by myself before, and this will only be my second time driving out of state by myself.
What I'm worried about include staying entertained on the ride up there (When I'm bored I tend to let my mind to go everything bad that has ever happened to me and I end up a crying mess), and dealing with the fact that there is one stretch of road in which I stay on for 200 miles, and while I have had a decent amount of highway experience since I got my licenses exactly 9 years ago, it's been a few years, and last time I was having trouble merging.
