Karen – I hear ya — nothing like letting someone else do the driving while you spend your time more productively. And some employers even help subsidize the cost of public transportation.
Here in the D.C. area we have great mass transit, for which I am very grateful! It is a low-stress way to travel to and from work, much better than sitting in traffic (which is very heavy around here!). Also, I can read or listen to podcasts of sermons from church – an additional stress reliever, and good for my relationship with God. Much more honoring to Him than the things I used to think and say about drivers around me when I was stuck in traffic…
… Or, how about riding your bicycle? Get a little exercise on the way in and start the day refreshed! Not only will you save money on fuel and other vehicle expenses, but could help you drop that expensive gym membership too.
See my website for some more info, including links to organizations that can help get you started.

Great idea, Jerry. I have a friend who bikes to work all year — here in Chicago!
