Need Correction please

Hi Teachers,

Could you correct these two sentences please? The idea is to include 'as ... as' in the sentence.
a) My friends are playing as happily as me.
b) My house is as far as my parents' house from work. Is it also possible, '... parents' house from my job'?

Thanks in advance

a) My friends are playing as happily as me. OK. Or with the ending (which I prefer) as I am.


b) My house is as far from [work /my job] as my parents' house. You had a slight word order problem here.
