All About Pens And Pencils

Doing Making

What are YOU doing because of rising fuel costs? What changes are you making?

I drive a gas pig - So I drive to work, and I drive home and that's IT. I walk everywhere at lunchtime. I estimate I save 40 miles alone at lunchtime. Unfortunately, I work about 7 miles from home and I have to wear "dress business attire" so the bicycle thing would not work, nor could I walk.
What is everyone else doing?

My husband and three co-workers have started car pooling, although they have to wake up earlier to do so. I have started planning my trips to the store much more thoroughly. If I can't get it in the town we live in (small town) then I try to have it delivered online through the mail. My in-laws have also started bicycling everywhere.

Here are a few Doing Making listings you might enjoy:

I was at a Fourth of July party and one of the women there took a liking to me, deciding that she had a lot to talk about and that I would be the one who she could confess everything to.

After about three hours, and six bottles of Bud Light, I told her that I couldn't talk to her anymore because she was making me feel just as depressed as she was. And I just couldn't handle it anymore. I mean, I'm a nice person, but I can't handle everybody's problems-especially on a holiday!

So, what was she ranting all night about?

Her weight. Ugg! Women, are so bad about complaining about their weight that it is almost painful to listen to. No, scratch that, it is painful to listen to. And it's frustrating because it just doesn't have to be that way.

Believe it or not, I used to be pretty heavy. Okay, pretty fat. But then I discovered that I was doing something to make myself fatter! Scary, right?

Yeah, I thought so too.

No, talking about being fat and hating yourself because you're fat isn't going to make you fatter, but it isn't going to help you lose weight. But there is one thing that you can do right now to stop making yourself fatter.

What could that possibly be?

Now, this is serious information and it's going to change the way you think about dieting altogether. It's the food that you're eating, and when you eat that food that determines whether you lose weight from what you eat or whether it attaches itself to your thighs.

Saying you are what you eat isn't necessarily true anymore. You could eat whatever you wanted, but the key is that you have to learn the times when your body is better able to break down the foods if you want to lose weight.

Throw out everything you've ever learned about exercise programs or diet plans. The key that you've been missing all along is simply the time of day.

Crazy, right? But amazing.
