Done and done

School is over. Yea!!! I am so happy, you have no idea. Yesterday was the last day and we had our Christmas party yesterday afternoon. I don't have to go back there for 3 weeks if I don't want to. I will be going back there but I don't have to. Yeah!!!

This week did not go as planned at all. I didn't get up to workout any morning. I didn't eat well most of the time. I was exhausted by the time I got home. Overall a pretty miserable week. Yet I still managed to go down .4 lbs. Wow!!! After yesterdays alcohol and food orgy that was a real shock. My initial game plan was to jump right in today and start on my program but I've changed my mind a little. First, I overslept and had to rush off to WW. I hate rushing in the mornings. Second, I had to stop on the way home and pick up some things for the week. Third, I'm going this afternoon to get new running shoes and a new bike helmet. Plus I want to plan. I do not want to go into this without a concrete plan in place. Also, I would like to relax for one day. So today is my planning/prepping/relaxing day. And I'm good with that.

I will be spending some time on the couch as well as here planning my attack. I have 22 days to lose 10 lbs. I can totally do it if I am focused and committed. And I am. Oh, I also need to charge up my Garmin and get a new battery for the heart rate monitor. I'm going to be using that for working out since my FitBit died. I also have to look for a good calendar for 2012. I like to have it on Excel so I can customize it and print it out so I can see it. I also need to get paper for my printer. Oh, busy, busy, busy. I was looking earlier for a calendar and came across a link for auto collision estimating software. Not sure how that came up, but it did. Google has a mind of it's own sometimes. But then again, Google can usually predict what I'm looking for and that's kind of scary weird.

Okay, enough. I need to go hit the showers.

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.
