Last day of winter break

-

 Tomorrow it is back to school again. I'm torn about that. On the one hand I'm like, okay, time to get back to it - cool. On the other hand I'm like, NO!! I don't want to go. The end of last semester was pretty darn crappy and because of that, I'm not really looking forward to this semester. But I have made changes. So we will see how that goes. Got some things to do today, but nothing major. Going to play on my laser most of the day. 

Last night Hubby had a drink. Actually he had 2 drinks. And yes, I was watching and counting. I'm going to have a conversation this morning with him about that. I'm going to tell him that I'm not going back to living the way we had been. If he chooses to drink a lot, I'm going to choose to leave. I'm fairly confident that I did not make that abundantly clear to him last time, so I need to be sure that he understands it completely. I'm not looking forward to the conversation but I need to have it because I'm not going to live like I did before. Things have been really nice for the past 4 months and I'm not going back to the way they were. I'm not. So today I have to have this very difficult conversation with Hubby and hope it goes okay. 

Yesterday I spent all day organizing this room. It was such a mess that every time I walked in I felt like I couldn't breath. So yesterday was organization day. I ordered some shelves and hanging pockets off Amazon and Hubby built me a wood support. Yeah, it looks a thousand times better than it did. I actually did a Supernatural workout in here yesterday. There is that much room now. I've broached the subject of a she-shed with Hubby and he seems all on board with it. In fact, he sent me a link last night to a local company that would make and install one. I think a she-shed is in my near future. I need to go talk with the people and explain what I want to do and see how this equipment can be left in the Arizona summer time in the shed. Of course, in the summer I'll be working on it all the time so there's that. Anyway, something in the works. 

Just got an email for a Macy's sale and I have to say, it's the first time in a long time that I don't have new clothes to go back to school. Usually over breaks, I hit the sales. Not this time. I've been busy crafting and organizing. 

Today will be devoted to prepping for school tomorrow and crafting. I'm going to make a couple mugs. Then I'm going to set the laser going while I do school work. That should work out well. I also have some laundry to do which is easy. Later this afternoon I'll be doing some Supernatural. I'm debating about going to the gym. Now the reason I'm debating is because a. yestersay it was so freaking crowded, I don't want to deal with that again. I could go now, but Hubby is still sleeping and Mavy will lose his mind if I leave. b. I feel like I need to start clean next week. Start fresh. Program the gym into my routine and make it a permenant fixture. Today will be prepping for a successful week of school. 

Okay, I think I've blown through all the stuff I needed to brain dump. Time to get to work in here.

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.
