  I don't really have any issues at the end of my workday. I shut my computer down and turn the phone off between 5-5:15 every day. I still check emails and calls throughout the evening, but I did that before, too.
  
  I will say that I rarely take an actual lunch break, which I did daily when I was in an office. Now, I am lucky if I get 30 minutes when it is supposed to be an hour. It's hard for me to rely on my boss to handle things I am already working on in the middle of the day, so I would rather just take the calls and emails myself. That's more of a me problem, I suppose. I can be a control freak.
  
  There have been times where I haven't left my house in two or three days, so I try to make an effort to get out and about even if I have nothing in particular going on.

  I used to commute an hour and 45 minutes, EACH WAY. Basically 4 hours on the road. I did that for 15 years. Moved last year. Now I'm down to 8 minutes.

  Holy crap, 15 years of that? I would've gone crazy.

  Had over 550k miles on my car. And over 330k miles on the car before that.

  I assume these are the same thing and stand for "working from home?"

  Are we expected to guess your exact distance? I'll go with more than ten but less than 12 miles.
