With My husband & Son’s help….. I’m turning my hobby into a side business.  Most of my friends know that I love dabbling in PSP.  I used to design web pages when I lived in Pratt, and even took a few courses on the different HTML software out there.     Ever since we set up this blog, I’ve been setting up a few more for some friends… the latest being for my horse trainer.  Realizing I can put my PSP to work on designing templates  for the blog got me excited!!   JT set me up on a new domain that I can host blogs myself.  I”m having allot of fun!  Can’t wait to show off some of the new designs!   Right now, I’m working on my own Blog to advertise the templates…. I’ll share it when I get it complete!  It seems this might be a fun and profitable Hobby to help support my Horse!    If you are interested in your own blog.. shoot me an email and I’ll tell you more.

I remember a couple years back, my Sister-in-law used Raw Milk allot. I thought it taste wonderful!! Just like growing up!!  Now it seems to be in the news more.  I wanted to see if we could pick some up, so the hubby could try it. (his allergies have been horrible this year).   Haven’t been able to find any.

I spoke to someone yesterday who told me it was illegal to purchase Raw Milk.. at least in Missori.. Really???   I need to do some research, I  guess…

Have any of you tried it??

We had a terrific time at the RiverMarket this morning. That place is nuts though! So crowded!! It reminds me of the Kansas State Fair!  I think I like sticking to the Olathe Farmers Market for produce. The prices seemed cheaper, and it wasn’t as crowded..    But.. At the Rivermarket you can pick up some pretty cool things! We loaded up on Salsa & Spinach dip spices,  recipes and a few other items.

Not to mention we really got our exercise in! We had to block a zillion blocks away just to get to the RiverMarket!!

I hear so much about how great organic food is and how much healthier it is for you….For the extra cost do you think it is worth what you have to pay?

We are going to the Olathe Farmer’s Market and possibly the River Market in downtown KC, this morning…I will let you know what we find …….

Yesterday was the start of our getting back on track.. It was a … CHAD day! Ouch.. Ouch.. is all I have to say. He sure can work a person sore!! LOL!  My calories were on track for burning and eating for both Monday & Today! So far, so good.  I was even able to get in some Homemade icecream!  It’s a darn good thing it’s only 150 calories!

I’ve been taking the dogs on walks each eve… This will sound odd.. but have found some really pretty pictures of Weeds! I’ll  have to start posting them!  For now.. I just need to get the hang of blogging , and exercising.. and getting back to consistency in all aspects of Life!

Today, I spent most of it at the Stable. I had a horse lesson, and then Lunch with Vicki & Sally.  Of course, we then had to yack a bit, and work on setting up Vicki’s blog for Horse training. Once we get it set up, I’ll share it with everyone!!

I’ve been reading allot about High fructose Corn Sugar..  Does anyone know much about this? I was looking for products and was having a hard time finding anything that didn’t contain it…

According to the San Antonio Heart Study, the more diet sodas you drink, the greater the chance that you will be overweight or obese. For each diet soda you drink there is a 65 percent increase in your risk of becoming overweight.

According to the Framingham Heart Study, if you drink diet soda you are at risk for weight gain and metabolic syndrome.

According to research done at Purdue University, rats that were fed artificial sweeteners gained more weight than rats fed normal sugar.

These were off an article on “Everyday Health” this morning.

I keep hearing more and more about Diet Soda being bad for you. I wonder if this is one of the things I should cut out? I normally have 2 aday…sometimes more if Hubby is home. I really do not feel that it makes me hungrier. But.. then again.. everything makes me hungry..

I’ve promised my husband..”again”.. that i will be getting on track with eating healthy and exercising!  Today.. is not going to be the day for that! Spent the entire afternoon with 2 of my wonderful friends at the barn! Came home and was starved!!  I need to learn to take healthy snacks with me!

I’m going to clean my cubbards this weekend, and set a goal… My official date to start will be On Monday.  My plan is not to go on a diet, but to eat healthy..and make healthy choices! .. So I best enjoy the whoppers that are sitting on the counter before Monday!
