Well that went well......

-

My plan was to write here more regularly and it's been 4 days since I've been here. That doesn't work very well. I feel like I'm stuck. Stuck and I'm not sure how to get out. Here's the deal:

First, I've put the Ph.D. on hold because of money. I'm hoping to come up with a way to finish it, but I'm not seeing anything yet. Of course, it's been about 2 weeks, so I may be jumping the gun. I need to find a way and I need to be open when it presents itself.

Second, I just learned that Phoenix is not going to hire me. I'm not sure this is a bad thing. I'm still not sure it was worth it. I spent 5 weeks facilitating that course and make $1100. Wow. That is a lot of work for not a whole lot of money. I wasn't sure I wanted to do it to begin with, so I'm okay with that. I just feel bad because they didn't want me :( They were supposed to want me and I was supposed to turn them down. Ha, childish, I know.

Third, the complete lack of activity. I think I've decided to return to Crossfit. I'm going to just go 8 times a month to begin and see how it works out. I'm looking forward to it and dreading it at the same time. I really want a kick ass workout, but I'm so afraid of getting hurt again. Plus the money. Crossfit is expensive and I've just gotten the money under control. Oh well, I'll try it over Christmas break and see what happens.

I think for the one of the few times in my life, I have problems and I'm not sure how to get out of it. I just don't know what I should do or which way I should turn. It is tough. I'm not used to being in this position. I usually always know what should be done, or at least I make a decision. This limbo I find myself in is annoying and taxing to my system. Maybe during my Christmas break I can figure something out.

Anyway, that's it. I'm in limbo and feel a bit stuck. Maybe if I just get moving, physically, things will help. I don't know.......

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.
