A new website

My friend Linda wants to start a Personal Chef business.  She’s been doing a lot of research about it and thinks that there would be a good market for it where she lives.  She’s always loved to cook, and I have to admit that she’s never cooked a meal that I didn’t like!  I think that’s a great idea for a business for her!  So she’s in the process of getting set up with marketing and planning her service contracts, etc.

She asked me to help her to put up her website.  So I’ve arranged to get her URL for her and am now looking into the right website hosting service for her to use.

I like the webhostinggeeks.com website because they rank and rate a lot of the best hosting services.  I especially like their green webhosting reviews; I want to throw business to any company that is working proactively towards improving our environment!

I like how they explain what green webhosting is, and how it can help protect our environment.  Their list of green hosting companies shows some are wind or solar powered, some are carbon neutral, and some claim to be 300% green.  And I find it very appealing that the rates for these green website hosting companies are very reasonable.

A lot of rain

This summer has been unusually rainy so far. Doesn’t seem like a day goes by where it doesn’t rain! It is really hard to keep the lawn mowed and looking good because the lawn is so wet all of the time! Although it is possible to mow a wet lawn, it just doesn’t look as nice. A lot of people are acting cranky, too, from lack of sunlight I guess! And everyone that I know that suffers from arthritis has been telling me that they have been suffering a lot from the rainy weather. We don’t get a long summer here, so we are really feeling the pain of all of this rain!

Watching television shows online

As a young mother, you can imagine that I don’t always get to watch my favorite television shows when they are airing because my parental duties interfere with leisure time!  That’s why I was glad to find a great website -Spreety TV Online : Watch TV Shows Online Free.  This website lists television shows you can watch online for free – all in one quick easy location!  So I can find my favorite show – Burn Notice – for example without a lot of searching around the web!  I love it!

Horse lovers and the dating scene

Just when you think you’ve heard of everything, you hear of a dating website for horse lovers!  My cousin Stacy tells me that she has found out about a dating club for horse lovers and she has taken advantage of their offer of FREE sign-up to see if she might be able to meet “Mr. Right.”  My hubby butted in with his “two cents” and said he thought she was more likely to meet “Mr. Ed!”  (Smart aleck!)

When we finished laughing, Stacy told me that she heard about the website from a friend of hers and she decided to check it out.  Stacy claims that it is a social networking group for horse lovers that want to meet other horse lovers, and it doesn’t have to just be people looking for romance, it could also be for people who just want to make new friends who share their love of horses. Besides, having an equestrian cupid might not be so awful!

Stacy has always loved horses and rides whenever she gets the chance.  She’s been talking about buying her own horse someday and has started to look around to see where she could board it when she gets one.  She’d love to find someone to go riding with!

Getting ready for the 4th of July at camp

We’ve been busy getting ready to spend a few weeks at camp.  We’re planning to go out there this weekend and stay until mid-July.  We LOVE spending the 4th of July weekend there!  That is the absolutely best weekend of the year as far as lack of bugs, and nice warm weather.  And of course, all of the neighbors spend a lot of their evenings setting off fireworks to celebrate their vacations!  It’s a great lazy time, with nothing to do but relax and enjoy the simple things in life, and go for an occasional boat ride.
