Good Times

I apologize for not posting for the last couple of days, my hubby hasn't felt very well so have spent my time loving him better.  We had a very relaxing weekend just snuggling and watching Medium & Alpha.  Both are really good shows.

 Every week when I refill my medicine it brings me such an accomplished feeling.  I went from having a 3 month supply of meds last me 2 years to having to refill supplements/meds once a month because I haven't missed a dose.  Even when I haven't felt like taking them (which has only been one or two times) I still force (I don't know if that's the right word) myself to take them.  It's becoming a habit, something I don't even have to think about and it feels AWESOME!  Go ME!

 I met with my counselor today and it was emotional draining we opened the door on my past, but ran out of time to talk about it.  I was so drained and tired after my session.  She gave me a book to read  called "An Unquiet Mind" by Kay Redfield Jamison.  It is an excellent book if you are wanting to learn more about Bipolar Depression, she goes through her life her ups and downs etc, and it's really good so far, I'm about 1/2 way done with it. 

"It does not have to be January 1st to give yourself a chance to make the most out of your day – and your life. Every day is a new day to learn, grow, develop your strengths, heal yourself from past regrets or hurts, and move forward older and wiser. Every day gives you a chance to reinvent yourself, to fine-tune who you are, and build on lessons of what you have learned. It is never too late to change things that are not working in your life and switch gears, instead of thinking in the same old ways, hoping for a different outcome. Using each day to recommit yourself to positive thinking and intention will help you create the life you want and that you deserve!"

So often we are convinced that we have to wait for a new year to make changes in our lives...I am so glad that I chose to make the changes needed in my life BEFORE the new year.  I need to start exercising and eating better and that is my goal for the new year is to be fully committed to losing weight and actually stick with it.  I would love to be in ONEderland before the new year.

Saturday 9: Good Morning, Heartache

Trying another new thing called Saturday 9, it can be found here:  http://samanthasaturday9.blogspot.com 1) Do you come up with your brightest ideas early in the morning or late at night?   I would say that I am most creative later in the evenings 2) Are you more likely to feel romantic at night or in the morning?  Depends on the day :-), but usually at night 3) Do you shower in the morning, after work or before bed?   I shower in the mornings, it helps wake me up 4) Billie Holiday was just 44 when she died. Is there an artist whose early demise surprised and saddened you?   Not an artist but Heath Ledger's death really shocked me and took me by surprise.  He is one of my all time favorite actors. 5) Billie was known as "Lady Day." Do you have a cool nickname? (If not, feel free to give yourself one right now.)   No cool nicknames, as a kid I was "Woodie or Fruitcake".....don't ask LOL 6) When was the last time you had the blues?   ...

Describe the routine of a normal day for you:   I wake up at 6:00am, take a shower, get ready for the day, then I go downstairs and feed the critters, and make breakfast for hubby and I.  We usually leave the house by about 7:30ish and I drop my husband off at work.  Then I work (I'm a Pet Groomer) until about 3:30 or 4:00ish then I leave for home and go get my hubby from work.  Then I come home and make dinner, feed the critters, work on cleaning the house a little and we usually head to bed about 8:30ish or 9:00. 85. What is your greatest strength as a person?   I am a very compassionate and have a big heart 86. What is your greatest weakness?   Interrupting people when they are talking 87.

🌿 CBD and Hormones: What Every Woman Should Know

  Posted in The Wellness Den | June 14, 2025 Let’s be real: being a woman comes with a lot of hormonal ups and downs. Mood swings. Fatigue. Bloating. Brain fog. Anxiety. Sleep issues. And don’t even get me started on the perimenopause rollercoaster. Whether you’re in your 20s or late 40s (like me!), hormones influence everything —your energy, mood, digestion, skin, cycle, and emotional balance. But here’s something most women don’t hear enough: CBD can help. Not as a magic pill or miracle cure—but as a powerful tool that supports your body’s natural rhythms and helps bring balance when everything feels off. 💛 What Happens When Hormones Are Out of Whack? When estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, or thyroid hormones get thrown off, you may feel: Anxious or irritable Wired but tired Struggling with sleep or concentration Sluggish digestion or metabolism Cravings, mood dips, and PMS from another planet Sound familiar? Now enter: your Endocannabino...
