Spring has. . . gone into hiding?




Such a contrast in weather from a week ago!  Just last week I was mucking out my barn in a tank top and this week I'm back to a hat, mittens, and my coat.  Such is life in Wisconsin!  I received both my Giddy Up Goodies Box and my A Horse Box between the last time I wrote and now.   I was really excited to receive NO THRUSH  in my A Horse Box.  I have been really wanting to try this stuff because we tend to be wet where I live and the horses are prone to thrush.  They can get out the wet but I have one horse who seems to perpetually get it, no matter how dry I get him.   I'll take pictures or do a video so you can see the results.  I'm hoping it will be worth all the hype!

DIY for the equestrian

I love DIY stuff.  Love is probably not the right word...obsess is more correct.  I would guess this obesession is why the essential oil business chose me.  On a side Inote, I'm looking at schools for aromatherapy--anyone out there have a recommendation?   Right now I'm leaning toward the program at AromaHead .  I have a lot of extra commercially made stuff from my subscripition services, but as I run out I add in my DIY products.    For your convience, I've included a list of what I've made and a link to where I found the recipie.  What do you make for your horses?  What do you want to try?  I'd really love to try some of the DIY barn organization ideas, but mine just never quite turn out "right."  They always look thrown together instead of neat-o and the end result should end up on one of those Pinterest Fail memes.    Anyway, list and links below.  If you've tried any of those barn hacks, take a picture and send to me.  I just might have a goodie t

I've got a confession.  It's a dark, dirty secret and it has started to take over my life.    No, I do not have another horse.  Besides...it's no secret those 4-legged-hay-eating-hair-shedding-balls-of-joy have taken over my life.  Wait...new essential oils stuff?  Nope.  Not oils related either. I carry this damn thing everywhere and am pretty obsessive about it.  In fact, I carry TWO with me. Maybe a new cell phone?  After all, I am kind of a tech junkie.....  Almost too much of a tech junkie at times.  In fact, I have given serious thought to this article on NPR  and wonder, how many times have I upset my children because I needed to read one more article or look up "one more thing."  I work hard to take time to "unplug" but I wonder if my family and I might need to "unplug" a little more.  Alas, no new phone.  I might be a tech junkie, but I am a CHEAP tech junkie; which means I will keep my phone until it doesn't work anymore.  E

This and that

I have been spending a lot of time working on my mindset.  I've always sort of been a "glass half full" girl, but lately I've been really trying to tackle my issues with money.  Probably not the best idea as a business owner to put this out for the world to see, but historically I've not been real super with money.  There never seemed to be enough, no matter how much we had and I just couldn't figure out what was going on.  I mean, I was doing a lot of things "right": Tracking my spending Creating a budget Paying off high interest debts  Trying hard to build a savings account Putting money in my retirement account But, I was still financially failing.  I've decided I'm going to create a new money story and part of that process is working on my own attitude.  Why?  Because, as I've noticed with young children and with my equine crew, you get more of what you see.  I can't explain why that happens.  There's behavioral
