Commuting for Life

So I guess all of this moving has gotten to me. Today I have some kind of bronchitis thing. It is like a bunch of gunk in my lungs. I wonder if a CPAP machine can do that to a person? Anyways I had a fever last night so I am actually working from home today. I think everyone at work got annoyed hearing me hack up a lung all day. I debate taking cough medicine because it raises my blood pressure and I ran out of medicine yesterday. On the topic of health I can't believe I am now down to 265. I was 285 about 6 months ago. I think doing the one unhealthy meal every two days works. Also, tweaking my diet for my insulin resistance seems to be helping as well. All it means is more meat and less sugars and simple carbs. I can live with that.

In other news I wasn't able to see Brennon yesterday. That kind of sucked. He went to bed at 6:30 and I tried another route from work to home and I didn't get home until 6:45. This time I went straight up Coit. The whole commute lasted 50 minutes. On my way to work I went down the tollway. That took 40 minutes. I think I may be able to tweak all of these routes and get it below 40 minutes. Even leaving time can make a difference. It is just going to take some time. I also think we might start getting Brennon to bed later. Daddy needs some bonding.

Holly leaves early in the morning at around 6AM so she avoids rush hour. I think it takes her 50 minutes to get south of Dallas. It is amazing how the commute time is longer in rush hour traffic. She will be working next year to help us with all the move-in expenses. Although I wonder if she is going to keep on teaching pre-k special ed or move back to 5th grade science. I think she likes pre-k special ed better. I do know she is less stressed at it than when she taught 5th grade science. I guess we'll see what the future has in store.
