Because she is closed on Fridays.
That means that if Hub wants a dental appt (see my bit about where to keep a doctor), he has to drive back on Wednesday nights instead of Thursday nights. An extra day.
Hub is now telecommuting on Fridays, part of our original deal when he took faraway job. He comes home after work on Thursdays which is after Boy is sleeping. Friday mornings, Hub takes Boy into daycare, freeing me up for a peaceful Friday morning. He also drives back on Monday mornings. So really, he's home 4 nights and three days a week. Apparently I am ungrateful, because I like it even better when he is home early for dental appointments. Here, Honey, more taffy?
I am a professor at a primarily undergraduate institution. My spouse is a research professor and works two hours' drive away. This blog is primarily about life at a PUI, but also about our family trying to make the most of an uncomfortable lifestyle.
