Decaffeinated

So today is day three with no caffeine and I have not had even one headache thus far. I decided to not have any caffeine until I felt a headache coming from it and so far so good. I also have been a very good girl with my exercise and I walked for an hour today and yesterday and of course had my trainer come on Friday. It is very warm today so I was going to go swimming today after my walk but sadly the pool is pad locked so I guess that means no pool for me.

The other day Brad asked why it was we no longer gave sacrifices to God and when that stopped. I told him that it stopped when there was no longer a temple. He said why and I said where would they offer them. Of course Brad would not take my word for it and he asked the Rabbi the same question. The Rabbi responded as well that they stopped when we lost the temple. I was so happy I was right. Brad felt a little humbled that I knew more about Jewish practices than he did. I think he forgets that I was a Bible major in college and I do know something about the Torah. Ah well in time Brad will learn not to doubt me.

So there is a down side to exercising so much. I have a huge sore on my right ankle from the shoe rubbing on it. Today I had to stop and pull the heel of my shoe down and walk with it tucked under. My ankle was bleeding pretty bad and it hurt but once it wasn't rubbing anymore I could keep walking. Brad thought it was pretty gross when he saw it. Exercising has also been expensive because not only am I paying for a trainer but as a reward for motivating myself I bought an Ipod Shuffle to listen to when I am out walking. I really like it because not only does it go around my neck, it is nice to not know what song is coming next. For most things I think my regular Ipod is far better but for the purpose of exercise the shuffle is nice to have. Brad joked that I am trying to out gadget him. While I don't think that I am or that it is possible I do have a Shuffle and he doesn't.

Oh well I hope you are all having a great weekend. Brad is in his happy place waxing his car. He has even agreed to rotate my tires. He thought for a minute that he would get out of it because he didn't have a socket that would fit my lugs, however a very helpful neighbor said he did and gave us his. So Brad will rotate my tires after all. So I guess this is my lucky day. Of course seeing him use power tools already makes me a winner. I love a man with a Torque wrench!!!
