...brain damaging habits.
1. No breakfast
People who do not take breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level. This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.
2. Overeating
It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.
3. Smoking
It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.
4. High sugar consumption
Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.
5. Air pollution
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.
6. Sleep deprivation
Sleep allows our brain to rest. Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the death of brain cells.
7. Head covered while sleeping
Sleeping with the head covered, increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.
8. Working your brain during illness
Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of the brain as well as damage the brain.
9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts
Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.
10. Talking Rarely
Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain.
How do you stack up??

getting around...
We are slowly discovering each day that there is a greater need than we thought for me to get myself a car.
Although we are doing alright at the moment car sharing, me being here on my extended break without a car means I am totally having to rely on Deanna and her Lexus, which is cool of course but when it comes to me taking her to work, getting the boy from school then going out again to pick her up, we are using more fuel than is really necessary. However, it is unavoidable.
Which leads me to the following: The other day whilst taking her to work we passed a car on the side of the road for sale. It was awesome, typical American car, and I was all..." WOW, that car is AWESOME!!"
Today, I went back to take a picture, find out what it was and get the price.
The car is a 1972 Pontiac Le Mans and you guessed it, it's out of the budget range, and at $5,200 it's about $4,200 above budget.
Looks like I will just have to keep on looking.....sigh
(i would look totally rad in this)
