Day 5

Day 5

I missed a day. I have been really busy and have had a horrible headache for 2 days.
I am feeling better, thanks for asking. I still have done very well considering we have been living out of suitcases all week. ( the hotel does have a dresser, I was just being dramatic.)
Let me address the headache first. I thought maybe it was because of stress, then thought it was the flu, leprosy, or any other malady I have seen on Discovery channel. After the hypochondria episode, I finally figured it out today, I had given up caffeine for this project, I was going through withdraws!
See how committed to this I am. I gave up Caffeine as previously discussed , alcohol, crack, heroine, cocaine, and hallucinogenics. OK not really, I only gave up caffeine and alcohol, those things are so bad for you!

I have been eating most of my meals in the hotel so I not only save money but control what I am consuming.

Hey, I am not made of stone!
1 pt of water

We went to a baseball game after dinner. Mike and I took the stairs instead of the elevator just for a little extra exercise.
On the subject of exercise, I usually run, but this does not mean that I believe running is for everyone.
I happen to really enjoy it. I have no problem running out in public, listening to my head phone and singing out loud. I have made a fool of myself more times than I can count.
However, any form of exercise is good as long as you are moving. If what you are doing is making you miserable, find something else, just keep moving. (not you Mike, you are running!)

As for natural health, I tried apple shampoo for my headache. I read an article that the scent of apple can relieve a headache, and you know you can believe everything on the web. In this case it does work. Though my headache was not completely gone it did alleviate it a great deal. So get a headache sniff an apple.
And now it is time for the gorgeous, talented, master of one liners, MIKEY! U.mmm, there is a hydro belt I want.)
Why thank you honeybunny. I had a bowl of grapenuts with rice milk. Lunch was a veggie sandwich (no cheese) from subway. Dinner was at Soup Plantation with friends from work. I had a great time, as well as a delicious brownie & ice cream for dessert. Man I can't wait until Laurin gives up the crack, cocaine and hallucinogenics.

There you have it. What it is I am not sure.
