I got a lot done this weekend

-
and none of it was training related :) I'm thinking I finally got the moving bug. I have a lot of stuff that need to be gone through if we are moving back to the mainland. I have a year but I think it's begun already.

In the computer/birdie room I had a very large desk, 6 shelf bookcase, dresser, extremely large bird cage, 2-drawer file cabinet, smaller parrot cage, and lots of training gear. After my weekend I now have a very large desk, 2-drawer file cabinet, extremely large parrot cage, smaller parrot cage, 7-drawer plastic stand. Everything else is gone and there is so much room in here it's awesome. And I've caught 2 mice in my Rat Zapper. All Hail the Rat Zapper!!!!

Then today I also tackled the living room. Our living room is kind of small. We had a small couch, coffee table, 4-shelf bookcase and TV on a stand. That's it. Well, over the past year or so the dogs have gotten stiffer and stiffer and their beds have gotten larger and fluffier. I finally realized that the only reason the coffee table is there is to collect my various magazines. Since I've cancelled all but 1 subscription, I no longer need that big table. So out it went. There is now room for both large dog beds and too walk around the living room. Who knew???

I am very pleased. I've got a ton of stuff together for a garage sale that we will have in the not too distant future. I got rid of some junk. I'm very happy with my work this weekend.
Tomorrow morning it's back to our regularly scheduled working out.

In other news, I was down .2 lbs at my weigh-in yesterday. That was actually pretty good. When I got up yesterday I felt kind of bloated so I wasn't expected a loss. I was pleased.

The bad part to all this work this weekend is that I didn't track my food. My eating got thrown off when I took the test on Friday and it's been a little screwy all weekend. I haven't recorded anything and so many things I ate on the run so I'm not sure I could remember everything. The good part is that I think I ate pretty well as I wasn't full or stuffed at any time. I think I'm good. Starting tomorrow it's on again.

I think that's it. I'm off to fold laundry and head off to bed. I'm tired.

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.
