What to do

-


My shoulder feels a lot better this morning. Not perfect, but a whole lot better. So my problem is, what to do about Crossfit? I want to go - I'm feeling pudgy from siting around so much - but I don't want to be stupid about my shoulder. Last week, when the other shoulder felt this way, I went and did a modified workout and things were great. I'm leaning towards that. But, this is not exactly the same as the other shoulder and I don't want to make it worse. If the workout is not too bad, it won't be a problem. But if there is a lot of shoulder work, I could be screwed. And yes, I can modify the workout, I can modify every move, but I HATE doing that. I feel like a wus!!!!! So I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet. I do know that I am going to clean the bathroom now. But that's as far I my planning goes.

In totally unrelated news, we got a new washer and dryer yesterday. When we moved in here, we bought one of those stack sets. It was on the small side, but with just the 2 of us we figured it would be okay. Well, after about 1 - 1 1/2 years, it started not spinning. We would have to manually turn the drum and start it spinning. At first it only did it once in a while, then it got more frequent and more frequent, till eventually it was doing it all the time. I got so there were things I just would not wash because I knew they would be a problem. The quilt for the bed?? Yeah, pain in the butt. Even the sheets had to be washed one at a time. It was crazy. So last Saturday we went and bought some new ones and they were delivered yesterday. Since they got here I have been a washing fool. I think I did 4 loads yesterday and I've already started laundry this morning. I'm washing everything that I put off washing in the old ones. Oh yeah, these are regular separate washer and dryer - I like it much, much better.

So I'm off to clean the bathroom and wash the floor mats. How exciting.....

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.
