Whose turn is it to drive?

You would think that when 3 people car pool, everything would just be a regimented schedule.

(B) Driver 1 - 1st week,

(D) Driver 2 - 2nd week,

(J) Driver 3 - 3rd week

and then it all starts over again.

Right?

WRONG!

First of all, B has to drive separately on Mondays because her work schedule is 1-9 while D & J work 8:30-5:00.

This can sometimes confuse D & J

Understandable!

Secondly, D takes off early on Fridays because she is going to Beach Harbor to ride all over the

Chesapeake Bay on her jet ski. This leaves B & J having to carpool together themselves. And then on Mondays, D is coming back from the Bay, which leaves J to often fend for herself, since B doesn't go to work until 1.

Who turn is it to drive?

If B, D or J have a scheduled appointment, be it, Doctor, Lawyer, Dentist, Psychiatrist, Eye Doctor, Mammogram, Pap Smear, Colonoscopy, Physical Therapist, Chiropractor, Secret Rondevous Man, things sometimes have to be changed and telephones have to be consulted and then passed from vehicle to vehicle while driving in rush hour traffic.

OMG I still can't believe we did that!

Whose turn is it to drive?

Now, B, D, J all have daughters -

B's daughters are D & J

D's daughters are J & J

J's daughters are N & A

and B & J have grandchildren while D has grandferets,

(but we won't hold that against her).

Sometimes D & J, J & J, N & A or the grandchildren or grandferets can sometimes change the

complete schedules of B, D and J.

Whose turn is it to drive?

Thursday of this week J is babysitting for her daughter A,

and watching her grandson J,

thus leaving B & D to ride together.

Now Friday of this week, is changed because B

is going out of town with her daughter J, and her two grandsons L & L

to see daughter D, and son-in-law R,

and her grandchildren, L,K,L,K in NC.

And because it's Friday, D is going to leave work early to go to the Bay,

leaving J to fend for herself once again.

And to make matters worse, Monday is Memorial Day weekend.

No work on Monday! YaHoo

Tuesday B will be coming home from NC with J, L & L.

D will be coming home from the Bay

J will be fending for herself once again.

My question,

Whose turn is it to drive?

(And you thought you had problems!)

Often we will here comments like, Are you ridin' or are you drivin'?

I wonder, is both an option?
