There is always something

-

Okay, a couple of things to go over here. 

 

First, I’m sitting here watching the new season of the Biggest Loser.  These people are huge.  I know they will make life changing alterations over the next few weeks so I don’t feel bad saying that.  I do love this show and I’m totally hooked.  What got me was the beginning when they were all so excited to get on the show.  I thought to myself, how ironic that they are finally happy and joyous over being incredibly huge. Strange, huh??

 

Second, I am bored.  I have officially been out of work for 2 days and I am bored.  You can only look for work for so many hours a day.  I found myself looking for things to eat today when I wasn’t hungry.  I realized I was incredibly bored.  What the heck am I going to do??? Well, I’ve actually decided to up my activity.  I’m going to workout in the morning, strength or running, and then do something in the afternoon.  I’ll either go for a hike, or ride my bike and play a little tennis, something like that.  I will also take some time to take some pictures everyday.  There is also some organization I want to do.  I will just have to keep myself busy.  I can’t get bored because then I eat. 

 

Thirdly, I think my knee problems is my weight and my shoes.  I’ve been doing my strength training in some old running shoes and there are a lot of cardio intervals that are high impact.  I think that was part of the problem.  For the last two days I haven’t been doing the high impact stuff and I got new shoes.  The knees feel pretty good today so I think I’m on to something. 

 

Okay, that’s my new plan.  God, this stuff just isn’t easy is it?? There’s always something.

Not a fan of the show but your plan sounds really good.
You are so right about having good shoes. They are absolutely necessary. Enjoy.

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.
