24 miles for me. About 30 min in the morning and maybe 40-60 min coming home.

Why would you drive from waldorf down to mechanicsville for daycare, then to dc for work? I'd hope its free.

Don't do it. I drove from Golden Beach to Bethesda for almost 7 years. I tore up 5 vehicles and was spending $500.00 a month in gas and that was almost 2 years ago. I fell asleep coming home one night in Hughesville (before the by pass was built) and the woman behind me starting blowing her horn and woke me up....scared the chit outta me. That was the day I decided enough was enough.
You are looking at 104 miles a day that is 520 miles a week and 2080 miles a month just to get to work, this isn't counting any weekend driving. I was getting oil changes every 45 days and you will be also........not to mention tires and brakes.
You will not have any home life at all........and life is just too short for that! You will be so exhausted that the weekends are usually shot to hell so there goes enjoying any family time or working on the yard or house. And trust me Monday morning comes mighty fast......

I suffered a 2.5 hr. commute each way for 3 years. Proudly announcing that I obtained a job 20 minutes from my house this morning. Kiss My azz Mclean! Woo Hoo!

Congrats to your hubby, Ocean733
, is he retiring from active duty? Some people I know lived in Severna Park, and it was nice. I know they're not giving away homes up that way, but it might be worth taking a closer look around that area. One reason a lot of people moved there (according to them) is the school system. Even if you don't have school-aged kids, it still could make for a good investment being in a neighborhood that has good schools.

Hoover and I carpool into work - it is 31 miles from the garage to the gate.
I use to do a 52 one-way trip from Bryantown to Fairfax... never again...
The long commute can be OK if you are going against traffic, but sitting in it sucks.
My office mate lives in Pasadenaa - I can hook the two of you up via e-mail if you want... he can give you the low-down on the area. Also, my boss lives in Severn, which is cheaper than Pasadena - he said avoid Laurel at all cost
- just let me know, you know how to find me... OldHillcrestGuy

My 401K is now a 201K
According to Google maps - "3.7 mi – about 9 mins", although I disagree with the 'about 9 minutes' part.....some mornings it's 20 minutes, depending if I hit the 5 lights correctly. Coming home, depends if I stop at Damon's...

I wish I had this option..I'm sure MOST moms do..I would love to stay home with my little man all day and hang out and take him places. I think it would be great, would save $200/week(daycare), but then I would have to live off of the $190/week(child support)..Impossible

Yes, he's retiring from active duty.
I'm hoping that he gets persuaded from taking the job.
