Brain Dump

-

 After Tuesday, I have felt much, much better. I was really starting to sink into a depression and I'm glad that I figured it out and was able to deal with it. I'm not over it, but knowledge is power and I'm aware now. 

Tomorrow I start taking tirzepatide which is the weight loss drug my doctor recommended. I have a doctor's appointment in the morning and I will tell her I am starting it. Then come home and take it. I've been taking the other peptides for a month and it made me feel good, I'm hoping this will really kick things into high gear. I do have to up my workouts. I have to. I know that they will help increase my energy levels, I'm just going to have to power through and get it done. I do have Friday, Saturday, and Sundays and no reason at all not to workout on those days. So I just have to do it. Starting tomorrow. 

I'm going to have to call my cardiologist and have my blood pressure medicine changed. My ankles are swelling and they are getting worse. Time for a change. 

We talked to a lady last night about adopting an adult Swissy. Her name is Sneakers and her parents are rehoming her because she guards the children. She comes with some baggage and it will be a challenge to start, but it could work out. We will see if we are chosen. If not, it's okay. I know that one will come along in time. 

Okay, I'm really too tired to type here. Tomorrow.

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.
