Another week down

-

 Well the first week back from spring break wasn't bad at all. I was looking forward to the weekend though, so I'm very glad it's here. 

This has been a strange year. First of all, it is hard to believe we are weeks away from summer break. In many ways it feels like we just started. Second, it feels like we've been going from break to break. We have a long weekend, then a break, then a long weekend. It seems we are moving from one break to another and that's kind of weird. But here we are just 9 weeks from the end of the year. Next week is a regular week. Then we have a 5 day weekend followed by a 2 day week. Then we have a week of testing where the kids will come in for testing in the morning and then go home. All school work will be done online. After that it will be 6 weeks until the end of the year. Crazy. I have not made any plans for a summer vacation yet. I need to get on that. 

Other than that, there is nothing to report. On April 1st my Medicare becomes effective. Oh, I have to pay that too. So I have contacted the place I want to go to get an appointment set up so I can get started and get caught up on all my medical things that I am so far behind on. I am looking forward to having a regular doctor again that I can call for anything. Which reminds me, I need to cancel my Forward membership. That was handy but now it's over. I just went and did that. I have it until the 7th so I can get my records forwarded to my new doctor. 

Okay, I'm done. I got nothing to say. I've already got things cutting on the laser and I'm going into a making mode today. Time to up this game.

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.
