Word for 2024

-

 Here we are days from 2024 and I have not come up with a word for the year. I like having a word for the year as it kind of encapsules what I hope to accomplish in the year. Last year my word was flexible. I engraved it with the definition on a plaque and it was in my work are all year. I saw it frequently and it made me stay flexible every time I looked at it. 

Some words:  

DO - perform, achieve, complete

UNLIMITED - not limited or restricted in terms of number, quantity, or extent.

INTENTIONAL - done on purpose, deliberate

Okay, I found a word of the year generator and just went through it, only because coming up with a word out of the blue can be difficult. These are just a couple, there were many more but I did not like them for a variety of reasons. But the one that really hits me, and did as soon as I saw it, is DO. That's a great word for me. Because, as I said in the last post, when I feel inadequate I freeze. I don't DO. I stop DOING. And the only thing that really gets me past that obstacle is to just DO. DO something. DO anything. I think my word for this year is going to be DO. 

I was working on a vision board for 2024. I did one last year and it really did help. I would look at it and it would remind me of things I wanted to do, goals I had, or just to keep pushing. So I made a new one for 2024. Here is it: 



I like it. I like the word I chose: DO. That's my hardest thing sometimes, doing. Well not this year. This year I will DO. I am going to engrave it on something and put it some place prominent in my room here. I want to see it all the time. 

Okay, I've done enough for this morning. Going to wake Hubby as we have errands and things to do today. We will actually be leaving the house for an extended period of time. Wow!! Haven't done that in a week.

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.
