I am thankful for my 4.5-mile, 9-minute commute to work. This quick drive allows me to spend minimal time in the car, and instead, use my hours outside of the office to cook dinner, catch up on Parks & Recreation, nitpick details of my upcoming wedding, and sweat it out at a the gym.

I know that “down the road” my commute may not be under 10 minutes, so while it is, I won’t hesitate to B thankful!
