The Long and Short of It

After I posted my last blog I realized I did not mention my new commute. That's because I don't really think of it as a commute anymore. It takes me about 30 minutes to get to and from work - including walking to and from the parking lot. I've also learned three different ways to get here - all without touching the beltway.

So, what do I do with all that extra time? 

The extra time in the morning means I actually wear make up and jewelry everyday. The extra time in the evening means that if I get home before Omar and Helena I can make a gradual transition from work to home and maybe even cook dinner. 

If I get home after them, usually it's only 5 - 10 minutes later, it means waiting for Helena to wake up from the car ride to feed her or spending extra time with her and Omar if she is awake.

So that's the long of it about a short commute.
