Commuting 4 Hours a Day

Just a suggestion if road conditions and finances allow, and assuming it is something you are comfortable doing. Eat while you drive, especially in the morning. There are 2 benefits, the first one is it helps eat up some of the time of the commute, the second one, it will allow you to sleep longer (assuming you can quickly pick up the meal). It also makes less cleanup work, so again extra time which you will need.
