Carpooling

Since we found out that we had a croissant baking in the oven (that’s right a croissant, not a bun, because that’s how we roll!), my wife and I have started carpooling together.  Or perhaps it’s more accurate to say that I have started driving her to work while she sleeps in the passenger seat.  The initial impetus for this was that she needed to stay calm and destressed so as not to upset the baking process. 

Then, as the months rolled by and my wife was in less and less danger, it just became a routine.  She enjoyed not having to fight the traffic and getting an extra hour-long nap every day.  Honestly, it’s harder on me, because I essentially have to drive an extra hour out of my way every morning and every evening, but it’s nice to see her be able to get some rest.  Although I’m not so sure that she’s staying calm and destressing with my aggressive approach to traffic, which is probably why she sleeps so much!
