Once again my best intentions

-
were thwarted. I'm thinking this cold knocked me harder than I realized. I got up early yesterday to ride my bike to WW. I was really tired Friday night and was tired when I woke up yesterday. I just figured it was like release for the weekend and didn't pay it much mind. So I rode to WW and it darn near killed me. I thought I was going to die. Had the meeting, reconnected with some old friends, etc. Then it was time to ride back. I didn't think I was going to make it but I figured I'd give it a go. I made it but it was tough going. I got home showered and got ready to leave with hubby. When I got in his truck I was absolutely exhausted. I did not know how I was going to keep my eyes open. Seriously. And it was 10 am. I made it through the day but was utterly exhausted the entire time. When we got home I laid down and took a nap, I was wiped out. After my nap I felt okay and last night I felt fine but I think I'm still not completely recovered. This cold is horrible.

So today I decided to no train. Tomorrow is my day off (from work and training :) and I've decided to take it easy today. I have some cleaning I want to do and some rearranging of the bird cages but basically I'm going to take it easy. I have a couple of books I want to read and that sounds like a fantastic way to spend the heat of the day. If I had one of those walk in bathtubs I'd take a soak.

So there you have it. Too much too soon, the story of my life.

I've been tired too. It sucks doesn't it? I hate the way it just sucks the life out of everything you're trying to do. Get some rest and then back to it when you can!

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.
