Pregnant Woman Driving a Scooter on the Interstate

It's old news, but gas is getting out of control. To cut down on driving, I'm commuting one less day a week to work. Well, it's either that or being the pregnant woman driving down the interstate on a scooter.

Luckily, traffic wasn’t horrific and I didn’t have any morning meetings lined up. Well, it looks like my new morning routine will have to wait until tomorrow.

P.S. Something I thought was interesting relating to the previous post I made: The front door at our old house is the same type of door that we have at our new house. That makes me appreciate how the builders are emphasizing the details and are really trying to stay true to the architectural period.
