All Done!!

-
I took the test and I did fantastic!!! On the math portion I got 187, I needed 171 to pass. On the reading I got 185, again needed 171. I'm all good. Unless I really, really bombed on the essay portion I should be good to go.

I am glad that is over. I hate the waiting. The build up to the event. I'm find once it starts, but the waiting could kill me.

In other news, they are apparently interviewing someone to take my place at work. Yeah!! It's going to take a pretty long time to get someone trained to handle the lab by themselves like I do, so the sooner they get on it the happier I am. Also, with someone on board I can easily take the time off I'll need to visit classrooms and such. It's all very exciting stuff.

The eating today has not been good. I had my lunch planned, a sandwich at Blimpie's, only to discover that the Blimpie's I wanted to go to was closed. Ugh!!! I had allotted enough time for lunch but not enough time to drive around and find someplace else to eat. The only place nearby, short of a pub, was Burger King. I got a Whopper Jr. meal and had a soda which I haven't had in months. It was yummy. Then when I got home I had 3 small brownies. Thank god my day ends today. Hubby is gone tonight, maybe I'll just have a bowl of cereal for dinner.

Okay, I'm relieved and happy and can relax now. I'm going to watch some trashy TV.

Glad you passed the math and reading test... yeah I'm sure you'll be good on the essay. How long will you have to go to get a teaching degree?
Thx for the comment on the blog...I'll check out that book and maybe the oprah thing. I will have some time this summer to read as the interning doesn't include much homework thank god so I can actually read some books for pleasure not cause I have to.

Congratulations on doing so well on the tests! Wow, I haven't been here in a while, but saw you comment on Duane's blog that you were moving to Colorado. I thought... "moving from Hawaii to Colorado? Why in the world would anyone do that?!" But I have gone back a few pages to catch up, and it makes sense now. I hope you find a wonderful place to live there, and get to visit with your family more, have land and animals and a garden, and everything you're dreaming of!

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.
