The best laid plans........

-

 So I had big plans to grab life by the throat and make it bend to my wishes last week.. Well, life had other plans and made me it's bitch. 

Monday, 1/25, I went back to school and left hubby home alone sick. I ended up having to race back home between classes to check on him and he wasn't doing well. 

Tuesday, 1/26, morning he woke up and insisted on being taken to the ER. He was having trouble breathing, he couldn't walk, he was dizzy, and just felt like crap. So I took the day off and we headed out to the ER.  He was admitted to the hospital. He had a pulse ox of 70% and the pneumonia and Covid were wrecking hell on his lungs. 

He is still in the hospital and it is now Friday. I've been single since Tuesday and OMG!!! there is so much for one person to do. I have not had the time to workout or walk or do much of anything between work and taking care of the house. So yeah, I made plans and life laughed. 

There has been not a lot of eating going on and what I have been eating has not been great. I'm starting to feel the affects. Though I haven't been eating junk food there has been a lot of not great food. I think the primary problem is that I haven't really been eating enough food. I don't eat breakfast. Lunch is either take-out or something small. And then I have dinner. Last night that was pasta and fried zucchini from Oregano's. Yeah, not the best choice ever. 

So I'm thinking of going back to paleo old school. Eggs, cheese and sausage for breakfast. Some meat thing for lunch. More meat and veggies for dinner. Like that. I always seem to want to reset my eating when things are going downhill. I guess the way it works for me is, if I eat good, I feel good and then I start doing good things for me. So yeah, food is a great place to start for me. 

Okay, I've been working all morning and I have some things to do around the house. So I'm off.

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.
