Christmas is over

-

 I don't know, I'm just not a fan of Christmas anymore. I think it's gotten to the point where it's too big, too commercial, too family, too loved ones, too whatever. I don't know. Maybe it's just me. It probably is. 

Anyway, I've been working diligently on my social media stuff for the last couple of days. It is hard for me but I've come to the realization that I have to do what works for me. I can read all the gurus who tell you to have content pillars, engaging posts, limit how much you push product, blah, blah, blah. I have to do what works for me or it all feels phony. So I'm just going to post. Just post. Every day. Just post. I'm going to work on building my consistency and from there I'll work on building my 'content pillars' whatever the hell they are. I came to that realization the other day and I keep losing it. I have to remind myself to just post. I'm going to push my blog, not this one, I'm going to push my website, I'm going to push my products. I 'm going to talk about things I do and see and experience and I'm just going to be me. I can't be anyone else and I can't follow anyone else's rules. Okay, that's the plan. 

Which leads me to AI. AI is a great tool for helping me write things. Seriously, I have been told more than once, that I write like a talk. Which may not be a good thing for ad copy. So I have been using AI to write help me write things. I think that is not a good idea. I think I need to write the things myself and then just have AI pretty it up. I did that with a blog post yesterday, but I think I'm going to revisit it yet again. There are some points I want to make and I'm not sure that I made them good enough. 

Okay, I think I'm done for now.

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...

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.

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...
