As fuel prices are soaring I keep on driving. Why? I live 3 blocks from the school, 4 blocks from the grocery store, about a mile from the church and a mile and a half from the bookstore/coffee house. All of these are reasonable walking distances. In fact, in the event I was a good grand daughter my great grandmother is only 3 blocks away and my grandparents are only a few blocks farther.
Why, Why, why have I been driving this whole time anyway? Forget the gas prices, I should have been walking anyway. No wonder I gained 10 pounds, I’m too lazy to walk 3 blocks, instead I have to load the kids up in the minivan just to get to the park.
No! Not any more not at nearly $3 a gallon. I am putting on my garage sale Nikes and footing it. Of course if dear ole hubby is joining me on any of my excursions we may have to discuss it first, but as for my offspring, and me we’re about to be getting a lot more exercise.

You will stay in good health on this fast. I would think that it will be easier than giving up sugar.

Giving up sugar is a cinch. Getting off my butt and walking is the hard one for me.

Oh yeah, I was suppose to remind you to visit your grandma. So have you visited her this week?

I think that question is qualified as email material. You shouldn’t ask me on a public forum if I have visited my grandmother this week when I just stated that she only lives a few blocks away. If I answer then everyone will know what a loser granddaugher I am.
