Seems to be working

 my big 3 that is. Every morning, yeah doing it at night hasn't happened, I write down the 3 (or 4) things I want to accomplish that day. Most days I've been doing it. Most days I've been doing more which is even better. It's not perfect but it's a good start. 

Today is Saturday and I go back to school on Monday. I'm not completely sure how I feel about that, but it is what it is. I need to get some things done today for school because I plan on taking tomorrow off from everything. We might be having some friends over to watch football but even if we don't, I'm not doing anything. So today I need to finish up the laundry and get things ready for school so I can ignore everything tomorrow. 

I've been moving a lot too. Walking the canal in the mornings and doing some strength training in the afternoons. I'm feeling it and I like it. I can feel the muscles in my legs and arms and back and it feels awesome. I'm going to fight hard to keep this going once we start back. I just need to be very, very organized and stay on top of things at school so I don't fall behind. As long as I do that, I should be able to leave every day at a reasonable hour. Also, now that pool season is basically over, I don't have to worry about Hubby wanting me to spend a half hour in the pool every day after work. I can come home, chat for a few, and hit my workout. That was the nice thing about going to the gym. I didn't come home first, just went straight there. Little chance of getting derailed or sidetracked. But I just won't let that happen. I'm going to fight for it. It is something I want a lot, so it's time to make it work. Also, I don't have to do it every day. I need rest days and I just need to make sure those rest days happen during the work week and not on my weekends. No matter how tired or worn out I may feel, working out will make me feel better. 

Okay, I'm done. Not much more to say. Time to get my day started.

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.
