Not sure what happened this week

-
but I've decided that it ends today. I did not get up and go to cycling this morning. Today is Pro Bowl and Hubby and guests were up and gone really early to get parking. I'm guessing I turned the alarm off because when I woke up it was way too late. Oh well, that's okay. I've got stuff to do around here before the parrot club so I'll do that instead.

But whatever overall lethargy has overtaken me ends today. I've been reading some blogs and it kind of seems that a lot of people have felt this. Maybe it's the ongoing winter, we've been getting rain everyday and that gets so old after a while, not to mention being generally overcast and grey out. I'm thinking that's part of it. Not having a real training plan is probably another part of it. I just need to focus on my goals, get a training plan in place and execute it.

That's what I'm going to do today. I did some internet research the other day and got some decent training plans. Now it's just a matter of putting a plan together that will fit my schedule and desires. I think I'm going to shift my running to lunch time during the week. That frees up the mornings and the evenings for other stuff. I did it for a while last year and it worked pretty well, until my plantar made me cry like a little baby.

Alright!! I have to go shower, make biscuits, and start planning my training all before 10:30 because then I have to head out to the bird club. Busy, busy, busy!!!!

Hey, I'll trade you my icky weather for your anyday. I was just having dreams of taking off to Hawaii for the beach. But you get your off days there too.
Hope your foot is feeling better soon and you get back to you cycling. I always enjoyed the cycling when the spring comes I'll get out there!

We all must have had a week like that. I recommitted 100% to everything today. Doing everything *cougheatingrightcough* half-way hasn't been working.

You're not alone. It's in the air. Good for you to end it and start anew!

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.
