We all get wrapped up into our daily lives, so much so that we tend to miss a lot of the important, little details. I’m sure I didn’t have ten seconds to myself today to think about anything but my work. It is really tough to spend eleven hours inside a building then walk out to your car, spend another hour in it, walk into your house knowing that in just a few hours, the sequel begins. I know you might be thinking “oh, cry me a river pal, things are tough all over!” Anyone who knows me, knows how much I love the outdoors, being outside, feeling the sun, being active. I used to ride my bicycle to work, but due to some circumstances beyond my control, I now cannot do that. I would have to wake up at three in the morning and I wouldn’t get home until six in the evening, and that’s non stop, hauling ass after working all day. Even I think that is a bit too much to ask of myself. So what is a guy like me to do? The truth is, I don’t know. I am just going to continue to put in the time and do the best job I can. I will try to get time for myself in when I’m able, but it sure is tough. It is kind of funny that my benefit’s package advertised a “Wellness Program” which consists of regular doctor visits and getting plenty of measurable exercise. What a novel idea, I’ll give that a try. While sitting in traffic on my way home today a bicyclist passed me, and the thousand other cars waiting in line at the light, and quickly disappeared. Feeling a little sorry for myself, I found my gaze frozen out my window looking at the prettiest little park. It is the Redondo Beach Veterans Park. I thought for a second how much of these sights I miss everyday while staring at the bumper of the car in front of me. Time to work on some scheduling, and make sure I and my obligations allow me to stick to them. After all, I want to make sure I do well in the “Wellness Program.” #fulltimewriter #wellnessprogram

LA agrees! Would James Robertson of Detroit? (pre $100s of thousands, of course) #TheBestCommuteStory
