School is getting to me

-

And I'm really hoping it is just these two classes. This has been me for the past few days. I had a decent sized paper due on Sunday. I didn't finish it. Then the instructor said we had until Wednesday - today. I didn't finish it. I ended up taking the day off work to finish it. And it is horrible. Really. Truly. Horrible. I was not that interested in the topic. I could not focus my thoughts or my sources. It was bad. Now I have something, but I haven't turned it in yet. I keep looking at it and changing it. I have come to the point where I'm just ready to turn it in and let the chips fall where they may. Part of the problem has been the collaboration paper that was such a complete nightmare a couple of weeks ago, reared its ugly head again. Seems that the group did not turn in the same paper and we did not have any evidence of collaboration. {{{sigh}}} So the two girls that I had such a hard time working with, are back. And of course, trying to figure out what we need to do has created more chaos and nonsense. I have reached a point where I am just done with it all. I'm hoping that it is just these classes and that once the new classes start I will be back on track.

So went to Crossfit last night and it was tough. I've been to Crossfit Monday and Tuesday. I should go tonight and take tomorrow as a rest day. After sitting here all day writing, I could use the workout. And yet, I still have the desire to not go. I have an hour to decide. Maybe a short nap will change my mind :)

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.
