Okay, one more time with feeling.....

-
Well, I'm back on track again. Last week I did absolutely awesome in exercise but my eating pretty much sucked.... As a result I was up 1.2 lbs. I have to keep close tabs on my eating. There's just no way around it. So I'm back to journaling every little thing that enters my mouth. My immediate goal is to reach 155. That's all I want and I really believe I can do it if I just focus and get some consistency........

Okay. So now that that's over...... Today was a really good day. First, I seem to have conquered the dreaded Thursday meltdown. I have been handling Thursdays fairly well for a few weeks now and I feel really good about that.

Now I'm getting a grip on the weekend. Usually if I don't exercise in the morning on Saturdays I don't exercise at all. Well, today I had a bunch of errands to run and didn't have time to exercise in the morning. When I got home I ate lunch and then got Charlie to walk the dogs a little early and I went for a swim, then did my bootcamp workout and stretching. I feel awesome. Tomorrow I have a race in the morning. I actually have 2 races. One I registered for but they moved from Saturday to Sunday and one that's being held by MPRRC. I want to do the MPRRC one, it's a 10k and I really want to do it. But the other race is only a 5k and there are not that many people in it so I have a great chance of winning something. I think I'm leaning towards the 5k. I know it's a cheesy reason but hey, I could win something.........

There are many ways to measure success,

and today I found yet another one. The Great Aloha Run this morning was just awesome. I didn't break any records, it was not my best time by far, but I think this was one of my best races ever. After getting up at 4 a.m., driving to the finish line, catching a bus to the start, standing in line for the port-a-potties(more on this later), I still found myself with over 45 mins before the race started. So I found a place to sit and people watched for 1/2 an hour - that is always fun. Finally, at 6:45 we headed out to the start. One of the things the Great Aloha Run does is they have the Sounds of Freedom. These are military units from all over the island that run in formation singing cadence the whole way. They line up on the side of the road and they have a silent start 8 minutes before the race starts. It's always a special sight to see them go. I'm a flag waving fool and when I see our military I just get all gushy. I feel so proud to live in a country where young

Colloidal Silver

-
colloidal silver is very fine particles that are suspended in liquid, usually water. This apparently has antimicrobial properties and has been used externally to treat wounds and burns to prevent infection. Working in the lab we get lots of nasty, nasty burns. You ain't been burned till you've been burned with hot sodium hydroxide - yow momma!!!! Anyway, we always kept a jar of colloidal silver around and used it on burns. It not only helped it heal it seemed to reduce the pain. I don't know how it just did. Now, some folks think you should drink this. They say it has antibiotic properties and is fairly harmless to drink. I don't know if that's true but it sure would be nice if it was. I hate taking antibiotics for a number of reasons. It would be nice to be able to drink something and have the same thing happen. colloidal silver has also been used to keep potable water drinkable for long periods. This sounds like some pretty amazing stuff. Being the scien

My blog is great!!!

Look to the left there. My blog has been rated by blogged.com as Great!!! I scored 8.5 out of 10. Woo Hoo!!! I don't normally get excited over things like this, but I'm on a mission to create great blogs and this is just a little validation. So for some reason I was incredibly busy last night and stayed up way past my bedtime. As a result I didn't get up this morning. Well, that and the fact that is was freaking cold. We are in this spring weather cycle where it is warm and beautiful during the day, and cold, cold, cold at night. Makes for good sleeping but hard getting out of bed. Fe-Lady is raising funds for a really, really good cause. Go here and help her out why don'tcha. In my humble opinion there is not enough we can do to help out our American Heroes. So go, give, it'll feel good...... That's it for now. I need to get some work done.
