Health and Fitness

Swimming is one of the
best exercises!


Swimming is a very good form of aerobic exercise for people who want to stay in shape or get in shape.  Swimming uses more muscles in the body than almost any other form of exercise. 

Because our body’s density is similar to water, our body is supported by the water and therefore less stress is placed our joints and bones. 

This exercise is good for people who are already fit and for those who are carrying extra weight.

LHH&G Eco - Inside & Out©

Compostable Seed Pots
The  compostable pots dry out very quickly; therefore, place it in a small cup to keep drafts to a minimum and leave little water in the bottom to keep it moist.  You can add a little peat moss to help keep the the soil from drying out. During the,1st growing (germination) stage, your plant may not grow if you do not keep it moist, but remember not to overwater it.

Also, keep the seeds, only one or two per pot, warm enough to properly germinate and grow, the temperatures should not go below 86 or above 95 to germinate, keep the seeds in a shaded area until it sprouts.  Once your plants sprouts place it in the light the sun or artificial light.  You can either place your plant in inside or outside in pot or in the ground.

Compost Ingredients

Is vinegar good for killing weeds?
Yes.  You can use household vinegar as an  eco-friendly herbicide. Vinegar's acetic acid kill weeds. You may have to apply it several times. While less eco-friendly herbicides may kill the weeds quicker, a strong concentrated dose of vinegar will do the trick and it is healthier for the body and environment.

Lake Monroe

This is Indiana's largest lake. Located in south central Indiana near Indiana University, it features a scenic stone-bluffed shoreline and wooded hills. This man-made lake was completed by the Corps of Engineers in 1965. While this area of Indiana is known as the "The Limestone Capital of the World," at one time it also had several salt deposits, creating a lucrative trade by rafting the mined salt down Indiana’s Salt Creek, which would one day become Lake Monroe.

Monroe Reservoir is 10,750 acres water with 23,952 total. Lake Monroe has three state recreational areas: Hardin Ridge, Paynetown, and Fairfax. The lake is served by a full service marina.  www.Lake-Monroe.com

Steps to building a budget:

1. First write down every thing you bought for the last three months;

2. Separate your expenses into two categories: Fix expenses (the amount does not change ex. cable bill) and variable expenses (the amount may change ex. grocery bill); 

3. Add up the totals. Add up your monthly income and subtract your monthly fix expenses. You are left with the amount you have to spend on variable expenses;

4. Now decide what you will spend on miscellaneous expenses plus 10% of your monthly earnings;  Put aside money for your saving and retirement;

5. Task- adjust your spending
