Yesterday (Sunday) we finally found our forever dog. We have been without a dog for over 2 years now, our last dog passed right before my second son was born. We then decided to wait till the baby was a little older and less time consuming before adding to the family again. We have been looking for a dog on and off for over a year. We were dedicated to adopting a dog, instead of going through a breeder this time and everytime we found a dog we liked it would get adopted before we got a chance to see it. We went and meet a few dogs at a shelter once, but it didn't work out.
Finally last week my husband found a dog on petfinder.com and we put the call in, it was a little touch and go but it all worked out and we went to look at the little guy yesterday.
At first the boys were not happy and the hour drive was going to be a total loss, but after fully waking up and being around the dog for awhile they were fine and happy. So we have decided to adopt this "little" guy - he is said to be 1/2 sheppard and 1/2 great dane. He is a real cuttie and well behaved for a 3 month old? puppy.
The only sad part is he wasn't ready to come home. They weren't able to fix him yet, so hopefully he will be ready next weekend, and the foster parents are going to bring the puppy to us.
So this all brings me to thinking about all the terrible stories there has been on the news about dog food and the things that get put in it. Have you read the secret truth about dog food report?
You receive dog food recipes with the report, I will not have to pull that back out and make sure that we feed our new addition to the family right so that he will be with us for a long time.
I also found a free secret report on dog training that I will be rereading and following. You can never prepare too much.

Master Cleanse - Day 1
So far things are going good. Started my day with a Sea Salt Laxative and made a days worth of the Lemonade drink at once, so I don't have to keep making it all day. I have to be a little careful because I did get quite a few seeds in my drink. I have had 2 or 3 glasses of this, the glass that I am drinking out of is bigger than the "serving", but as long as I finish by the end of the day I know I'm okay. I have had the same "large" serving of water, need to get some more in.
So far everything is going fine, just a slight queasy stomach. The rest of the day went fine. Although I don't much care for the cayanne pepper, otherwise the Master Cleanse would be no problem for me. I have had a very minor headache this afternoon, but nothing unbearable.
I have to say, I am doing the 3 day ease into the Master Cleanse, so I do get to eat dinner tonight, yes that's right it is 10:43 and I still haven't had dinner, my hubby is just now on his way home from work.
All and all day one went better than expceted.

Life and the pursuit of cleaning
So it is Friday and I have a million things to do and not much time to do it. We are suppose to be going to the Elmhurst, IL Relay For Life, but now the weather is not looking so great again and I can't take two young boys out in the rain. I guess we just get ready and see what happens, it's a 45 minute drive I don't plan on leaving for an hour so it could be over or blow over. Who knows.
I did accomplish getting my office cleaned up this am. That always makes me feel better. I am generally an very neat and organized person but lately life has been getting in the way of that. I need to get more binders, sheet protectors, ink and paper. But everything has a place right now and that is good. I planned on getting some other cleaning done today also, but my computer gave me some problems and that ate up abunch of my time. Oh yay I made 1 sale yesterday. I know most of you guys are celebrating monthly checks, but I am still celebrating sale by sale. This is happy, yet sad.
I have a long list of items that need attention, autoresponders, website, wonderful web giveaway, blogging and I could list many more, but we all get the idea. Well I did get a blog post in!!!! You have to celebrate the little things.

Money might just be a click away
If you already spend a fair amount of time blogging, money may come to you literally as soon as you ask for it. Once you have an established blog with a regular readership, it is easy to turn a profit through advertising. By hosting sponsored links or banners, you can see income from your hobby almost overnight. Even if you did not start your blog intending to turn a profit, making supplementary income from your blog may be easier than you think.
Of course, even for people who have spent months or years blogging, money from advertising revenue may not add up to a large sum. The amount of money that you can make as a blogger depends on a lot of different factors, but perhaps the most important element of the equation is the topic of your blog. If your blog is on a subject that appeals to a demographic that advertisers have a strong desire to reach, you will be more likely to be able to turn a large profit on your blog than if your blog is on a fairly obscure subject that does not draw the kind of audience that advertisers need to appeal to. Of course, the only way to find out where you fall on this spectrum is to try hosting some ads. If you are already blogging, you have nothing to lose.
As great resource for making money with a blog is Blogging to the Bank 2.0
One guy who uses blogging to his advantage is Rob Benwell. Last year he dished the dirt on the tips and tricks to making a fortune using blogging. But as time passes the old systems become obsolete and new techniques are required. This is where his brand new, fresh off the press blogging to the bank 2 system comes into play.
For those who don't know Rob Benwell, he's the story:
Back in 2005 he was struggleing to make any profit online, had dropped out of college and was getting deep into debt. He was trying all the techniques the gurus tell you and wasn't getting anywhere fast. All of that went in the bin and he started using his own techniques and started making more and more money using simple blogs. In early 2006 he shared this with the world and had a great ebook called blogging to the bank. Tons of people got rich from using these techniques. He then spoke at Online Marketing Legend Yanik Silver's underground Seminar where he revealed even more of his underground strategies.
But as I said earlier, the techniques used in that ebook are now showing there age. Some of them are not even working in the slightest! This is where blogging to the bank 2 comes into play.
It's full of great new techniques that work online right now! Everything's explained in plain English with all the fluff cut out.
Blogging To The Bank 2 teaches you Robs new step by step blueprint to creating highly profitable long term niche blogs using the newest optimization techniques. There's even a section on advanced Search Engine Optimization. Most people think SEO is difficult but Rob explains this nice and simply so even the blogging newbie will understand it.

Secrets Wednesday
Thats right it's Wednesday again. Time to share a secret tip or idea that has helped you whether personally or professionally.
Today is just a simple one: Instead of having a big fancy diaper pail, we save plastic bags from shopping, newspaper delivery, today I even saved the bag our sandwiches came in. Now the trick is to twist the bag and continue to wrap the rest of the bag around the diaper, twist and do it again and again (depending on the size of the bag you are using). Most people just tie it and toss it. If you use my secret it's the equivalent of putting 2 or 3 bags around the diaper.

Master Cleanse Secrets - Step 2
First things first set a start date Monday 6/23/2008. I wanted to start sooner, but we are having company over the weekend and I might want a drink or two.
Second pick the length you want to do the Master Cleanse.
I plan on doing the whole 10 days, it will actually be 13 as I will do the 3 day easy in preparation.
Third I am suppose to start (very honestly) listing the reasons why I want to finish the Master Cleanse.
Yes my first goal is the weight loss, I know some will come back, but it's a starting point
I would love to cut back on the sweets and avoid the sugar highs and lows I experience
I just want to feel like I am doing something to better my health
As sense of accomplishment
Fourth I am suppose to start (very honestly) listing how not finishing the Master Cleanse will have negative effects on my life.
If I don't finish it I will feel like a failure
I won't lose the weight I have been trying to take off since January
I won't get a new dress for the wedding (that is my present to myself when I'm done)
I will keep adding to the list, Friday I will most likely go shopping for my ingredients, I should be able to find the items at Trader Joes (my local Jewel didn't seem to have the maple syrup).
