Do you have a job that is relatively close and easy to reach without driving your own car? If so, why not consider taking the bus or train to and from work? You can read, take a nap or enjoy the scenery while riding mass transit.

You can take a nap once you get home. My mom often sleeps in her recliner in the den after coming home.
