The rest of the week went well

-

 After destressing here on Wednesday, the rest of the week was pretty good. I got all the things done that I needed to get done and then some. School went well and everything is back to normal. 

Mentally, I have already moved on to summer. I can't quite do that yet as I still have a few weeks of school left, but I can't help it, I'm out. I am struggling with what to do these last 2 weeks. I have something for Monday/Tuesday and possibly Wednesday/Thursday but the remaining days I just have nothing. We can't review for a week. These guys can barely review for 1 class period. I had thought of doing fun labs, but honestly, do I want to? I don't know. But I need to decide because it is here. 

In other news, I have not worked out much this week because of my right shoulder. It's really been painful. I'm not sure what the heck is going on, but I think I may need to have it looked at. Also, my left controller is acting up and it makes working out really, really difficult. I'm going to look at it today and if I can't fix it, I'm going to order another one. 

I'm very excited about having my cataract surgery. My vision is steady declining. I have a hard time seeing anything out of my right eye and that is really my dominant eye. I'm looking forward to not having to wear glasses. I've worn glasses or contacts since I was 9 or 10, so I'm very excited to be able to finally ditch them. I'm also excited that I get both eyes done before we head out on our road trip. So freaking excited. Scared and nervous, but super excited. 

This is my first Sunday without DMSC. I thought about them during the week, but honestly I think it's just more of a habit than anything really useful. I've just been in there so long, it's weird to be without. But the truth of the matter is that it was no longer working for me. I still get the message he's sending and I still think he's right, it's just that the way it's being delivered doesn't resonate with me anymore. So I'm on my own. Which, truthfully, is the way it should be. I can have someone tell me, you need to do this, and you need to do that, but until I find it on my own, I don't own it. 

So the day we came back from San Diego, April 17th, I developed a runny nose. I thought I might be coming down with something but it never really progressed beyond a runny, runny nose. I was blowing my nose almost constantly. That held on for a few days. Okay, a lot of days. During the craft fair on the 29th, I had taken a Zyrtec because it was so bad and I decided it might be allergies. Well, it finally started to clear up this past week. On Wednesday I realized that I felt completely normal for the first time in weeks. Yay, thought it was gone. Wrong. Yesterday I woke up to a runny, runny nose and I was sneezing and blowing my nose all day. Are you F**** kidding me???? I was pretty miserable. Ended up being a lazy, lazy day as I tried to kick whatever the hell it was that was bothering me. I think it's allergies. Because why would it go away and then come back? So I'm going to start taking Zyrtec every day and see if that helps keep it in check. This is crazy. For the past little bit, we have slept with the bedroom door open. Then on Friday night we didn't open it because it was getting so cold at night. Then I woke up on Saturday with my nose a hot mess. Slept with the door open last night and not a problem. They say if you have allergies that you should not sleep with the windows open, but I'm having the exact opposite experience. Weird.. 

Alright, that's it. I'm going to go shower and walk Maverick and then get to working on my craft stuff. Hubby is golfing and today will be a craft day. Woot!! Woot!!!!

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.
