My morning was better because of Crochet

[badrhinogillett]

I normally don't get much time to crochet. I work 45 miles from home and have a long drive. Today, I was able to commute to work with someone. She drove... I got to spend an entire hour crocheting, when I normally would be driving in traffic.

 

I'm so relaxed and happy -- makes working a whole lot easier!

That's really great! It's always nice to be able to share the cost and stress of commuting with someone else. Especially when it means you can do something else with your time that you'd much prefer to do!!

I am soooooo jealous, I have to drive 66 mile drive (one way) to work, about 1.5 hours unless traffic is bad.... and I have NO ONE to commute with so it's a long lonely crochetless drive for me, I would too be in such a better mood if I could crochet my way to work!!!

Maybe that's why so many people are crocheting these days ... it is a

Stress Reliever and Makes Us Happy! And Who Couldn't Use A Little More

of That in this Old World?!!!

What a great way to start your day! I just about had a panic attack on Sunday, my hubby was driving so I figured I would have a little extra precious crochet time and I had rushed out of the house without a project bag, horrors!!!!!!

[CLLinda]

What a nice way to enjoy the ride! We all can use a little extra "crochet" time in our days.

I wish I could crochet (or read or even turn around) in the car, but it makes me soooooo car sick! That makes for very long road trips

[Lydia48021]

This is a good idea!

I have a project bag in my trunk that has three sized crochet hooks, some cotton yarn, and some acrylic yarn. Sometimes I'm reading and don't want to crochet, but other times it is nice to have on hand when I want it. Once Rachel learns to crochet this year, I am going to have her make her own project bag to put in the car with mine!

That's great. I'm glad you got to crochet some. I always let dh drive when we go anywhere so I can do the same thing.

[apecaut]

I am so jealous! I just made a 15 hour road trip and had to drive the entire way, so no crocheting for me.

[badrhinogillett]

I can't even fathom how hard it must be to drive 15 hours yourself!

 

I have to tell you all, driving myself to work today by myself and not crocheting was no fun! I got used to it in just one day!

DH was teaching DS how to drive - Me being a nervous mom was naturally back seat driving. DS turned around and asked "Don't you have any crocheting to do?" - Gotta love teenagers - thank goodness he is now a 20 bunny:whew

[Titus2woman]

OH how WONDERFUL! I love to crochet in the car and am even sometimes disappointed we don't have plans to be out and about so I can work on my projects~LOL! Keeps me from nagging and being a backseat driver, too.... (((((HUGS))))) sandi

I also love to crochet when traveling, and we did alot of it when DH was working in all those states.....only problem was when we would get in the mountains, kind of made me sick....

[ArielManx]

I am so jealous of you lucky gals who can crochet in the car - I can't because I get carsick.

That's great. I'm glad you got to crochet some. I always let dh drive when we go anywhere so I can do the same thing.

I do the same thing! Unfortunately, my commute to work is driven solely by me...I have looked at work for others to commute with (it's a 40 minute drive for me, as well) but no takers. I was thinking how wonderful it would be to be a "rider" instead of a driver; that would be 80 interruption-free minutes of crochet, 4 days a week! (Sigh....)
