Yeah! We have sunshine today! I've decided that I'm going to live my life as if I didn't have a car. There is a grocery store about 3-4 blocks from here, and I'm CRAVING fruit, so, I'm walking there today. When I lived in Mexico and Guatemala, I walked EVERYWHERE and lost weight...so I'm going back to that mentality.

I implore everyone to do the same....pretend you don't have a car, and run some errands (that is, if you can, I know some people live far from the city). We'd save on gas, and polution, and help our bodies!!

    It would be kind of hard for me to ignore the big red brute of a car sitting in my driveway...it's like the 800lb. gorilla in the room!

    I do walk a lot though. It is great to get out in the fresh air!
