Incubation at it's best

3/22/2016

I am no expert on chickens. I just have a lot! Even after years with them I learn more and more everyday! Today I have been learning so much about picking the right eggs for better success in hatching, how to tell sex based on shape of the egg, with a good percentage of success. I have also learned mixed breeds are not mutts but in fact usually create sex link chicks and or another recognized breed. Mixed breeds are better layers and hatching egg producers than pure breeds. Just sharing a little of today's knowledge. The farm boy and I are doing our best to bring you the highest quality of chicks in area. Don't forget to get your now!

Natural Laundry Soap Recipe 

7/23/2013

2 Comments

 
It couldn't be easier! Of course since we make our own soap we use it, usually "Naturally Bare" but many people like Fels Naptha. It has been used for hundreds of years. Also some people don't like to use borax you can leave it out. 

  1. 1 4-5 oz. bar of soap
  2. 1 cup of borax
  3. 1 cup of washing soda
  4. 1 gallon of warm water

I use about 1/4 cup - 1/3 cup = 1 load

I like to add some essential oils to mine. I tend to pick a oil of the month and use it in all my cleaning products so the scents do not conflict.  


You can make powdered by just leaving out the water :) For this 1 tbls = 1 load

Well 2012 sure threw me for a loop. After taking over a cleaning company to expand my business last March I lost control of this part of it. Never a good thing but sometimes happens. I had moved homes, given up my office, and a whole list of other things to make it more complicated. Well it's time to wipe the slate clean and make this year bigger and better. My personal blog lists my personal intentions of which includes being better organized and blog weekly. I hope to keep up with that on all three of my blogs. Along with that for this site I will be re-evaluating products and services as well as revamping the website so look for some fun changes and upgrades. I want your input! What would be helpful to you? What would you like to see? Do you want recipes  Do you want info on health issues or clean living? Do you need inspiration? Business tips? Finance? Let me know I am here for you! Good things are coming I can feel it. Do you?

Summer time has flown in. School is out and our new ventures are keeping us busy but we want to bring back the basics. This month we are bringing back soap making classes and other favorites you love. It seems that this year brings big change after big change. For a person that does not handle change well this has been a challenge however this years changes all seem to be moving business and personal life in the right directions. We will soon be in our office ALONE! I know scary yet good. This allows for growth and more of what you want. In progress a full class schedule and an aromatherapy room plus so much more. Down N Dirty or cleaning division is in full swing and we are pleased to be offering all natural aromatherapy cleaners  hand blended just for you! 

With all the change we don't want to forget you our friends, customer's and clients so please tell us what else would you like to see from us?

May almost here?

4/24/2012

April showers bring May flowers? I guess that's why I miss the whole month! No April showers. Well in my effort to help others live a more balanced life I took over a cleaning business, Down 'N' Dirty. Let me tell you, my life has been anything but balanced since doing so. The past 2 months have whooshed by and I have no idea what happened to it. I have focused so much on getting that running smoothly that I have neglected other parts of my business.  Our car broke down so getting around has been a challenge but we are lucky to have great friends and wonderful landlords to help us out. I think, I hope to have it fixed this weekend, a whole month with out a car has been no good. On the other hand I have improved our families home life with all that extra time at home getting things done I had put off. So see unbalance. However life is good. Here in the desert it is in the 90's already but on the plus side we have tomatoes and peppers already and flowers blooming. Hummers at the feeders and shade from the trees :) With May fast approaching I realized I flubbed on paper work and upkeep so that is my May goal. Returning balance and getting on top of all that went wayside with my newest venture. Buy June everything should be smooth sailing. Here is hoping. I realize that blogging consistently may never be my strong point but keep your eye out I do chime in from time to time :)

Time to slow down

2/8/2012

0 Comments

 
As this month started I was made to slow down by a massive sinus infection. During these days I was unable to work and unable to be productive when I tried. However all that time in bed I started to think, could this be my bodies way of telling me to slow down? I finally concluded that yes it was. Well maybe not slow down but yet become more organized in my approach. Simply put going at warp speed without an outline of what you’re doing is INSANE!!!! See even Life Coaches need a slap in the face once in awhile to get on track. Some of you know I wear many hats and play different roles in my community and at home but it can be exhausting to the point it finally took a physical toll. I am taking this month to refocus and structure my time and do what I do best, help others manage their life J I love making others life more calm and easier! Duh that’s why I chose the field I am in. Hello! I am having an ah ha moment. What area’s can you adjust in your life to bring happiness and ease?

2012 is going to be a good one I am sure of it!

Today I am preparing for the busy yet exciting schedule I have made myself in 2012. As I take time to reflect and plan, I think of all that must be done and get truely overwhelmed. Then I remind myself that I just need to focus on one task at a time and worry about the rest later. I have decided to give myself a worry time once a day between 8:30 and 9pm (bath time) and that is the time to worry otherwise I must say "worry about it later". During this time I must find a solution or forget about it until the next worry time. Worrying is a huge time waster but it must be done, only for some it is debilitating.  I will not waist time in 2012! This is my first step in my preparations. The next is to set a schedule with deadlines. Even when just personal deadlines are good. We all react better if we start with an end in sight to measure our progress. Nobody like to feel as is they are just spinning there wheels on a daily basis. I am determined to blog here more and would like to here topics that interest you so please feel free to share. My goal is one a week and if I get more great! So the more you give me to talk about the better:) Well I am now off to my next task on my list (updating events). Have a great day everyone and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
