Madys horse

One day while at the tack shop I spoke with another lady in the store. She just so happened to have a horse that unleaded and desperate for another person to love her. So basically mady is now working at the painted bar farm in exchange for this horse. It's great!!! Mady is working hard around the farm and gets to ride anytime she wants. She loves it!

Ways to keep stress low:

HEATHERS HOMEMADE HINTS:

Peppermint Hair Conditioner (Makes 8oz)

1/2 C. Cholesterol-type hair conditioner
3/4 C. water
Peppermint essential oil

Shake in a bottle 'til well mixed, using just a few drops of essential oil. If hair is dry, add a tablespoon of corn oil.
It only costs about $1.20 to make (compared to $4.99 at a beauty supply store - or more!).

Homemade Laundry Soap

1/3 bar Fels Naptha soap
½ cup washing soda
½ cup borax powder
~You will also need a small bucket, about 2 gallon size~

Grate the soap and put it in a sauce pan. Add 6 cups water and heat it until the soap melts. Add the washing soda and the borax and stir until it is dissolved. Remove from heat. Pour 4 cups hot water into the bucket. Now add your soap mixture and stir. Now add 1 gallon plus 6 cups of water and stir. Let the soap sit for about 24 hours and it will gel. You use ½ cup per load.
