Life in the Fast Lane
You left work and are hurrying to be home. Traffic is a nightmare, and it seems like it is getting worse and worse these days. It takes longer than you thought to get home – so much for your transition time!
The therapy appointment is in an hour, and you must get across town. You drop off your work bag, change into more relaxed clothing, and grab a snack for the drive. Navigator informs you that you will make it in time if you leave right this minute.
So, you hop back in the car and get back into traffic, hoping you can make up a minute or two.
Traffic is flowing until it’s not. Report of a major accident ahead! Navigator rerouting! Now you are five minutes late! You take a big breath, “It’s only five minutes. I will text her and tell her I am running late.”
