Wow, I got a new job...I have to drive 25 miles to the first place in the morning and then I drive 35 miles to another place at night..60 miles one way...

What is your commute like?

Right now I go about 60 miles one way... I was doing this five nights a week! Now though, I only do it 3 nights a week. When I switch to a new job in a couple of weeks, I'll be driving about 35 miles one way, three nights a week.

Almost 5 miles round trip. I could walk easy enough, but have found that 12+ hour days leave me too tired to want to.

1 block. Yep, I live by the hospital and the nursing home is right beside it. Talk about sweet and its only on the weekends.

My full time Mon-Friday job is 4 miles round trip. My PRN (on call one weekend per month) job is 22 miles one way. I used to work full time at my PRN job but the distance it put me between my children during the day was an issue. Hubby works in the bigger city too so someone needed to work closer to home if it could be done. I was just waiting for the right job to come up. :lol2:

I have about a 35 minute drive to work one way. Just moved. Before I had a 7 minute drive. Yes, I know that I am crazy. But I bought my childhood house.
