Daily Workout Day 3

-

 Forgot to post last night but I have a few minutes this morning so thought I'd do it quick. 

Last night was a Supernatural night. I can't dig it up right now but I did a boxing Monster (that means a longer workout) and a flow. So two workouts and that took about an hour. Then I walked Mavy around the block because he was a nutjob and it was nice out. So yeah, lots of movement today. Woo Hoo!!!!

Just a brief note as I wait for my shawl to dry, I feel good. I feel really, really good. C has stopped drinking and is just great to be around now. That has reduced my stress and anxiety and probably my blood pressure. Working out has also helped with all that. But honestly the situation with C had gotten so completely untenable that I wasn't in a headspace to focus on working out or really taking care of myself. On the nights he would drink I would eat junk because I was stuffing my feelings down and trying my damnedest to ignore the situation right in front of me. I have felt a distinct change in my emotional state since he stopped drinking. I'm not walking on eggshells any more. I no longer have the feeling that I'm in this whole marriage thing alone. I really did feel that way. I could hardly talk to him about anything. He would either get angry or not remember. It was pretty miserable and I didn't really see what was happening until it fully stopped. OMG, I just had a sort of epiphany. My leg has not really bothered me for weeks. Could my leg/knee pain have been a manifestation of the tension I was under? Wow, it is definitely possible. 

Which now leads me to another thought. I've been toying with the idea of returning to DMSC. I listen to the podcasts every week and while I try to write him off as annoying and full of himself, which he is, he also has some really good points. I did learn a lot from him and I continue to learn from the podcasts. So maybe I will email him and see if I can get back in. I bet he will let me back. I may do that this morning. 

Okay, time to get moving.

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.
