Just Another Day

Today is my 35th Birthday.  Do I feel older?  Do I feel different?  Not in the least, it was just another day in my book.  Spent literally the day crying and having a pity party for myself.  Why you might ask? Because I am bipolar and that's what I do when I am feeling depressed, really I have no idea, only thing I can think of is the fertility bug....another year older, no kids to show for it, it makes me feel like a failure.  Like I don't deserve to have kids because I am an awful person.....trust me we (my therapist) and I are working on my self esteem and my confidence.  It just sucks!  I did have over 50 people post on my facebook page (if ever you don't feel loved visit your facebook page on your birthday).  That made my day.  For once I would love to have a birthday where something didn't go wrong, and it was a special day all the way around.  Gotta love my hubby he called me in the afternoon and oh BTW, Happy Birthday :-P  I did some dishes, laundry and then watched a few chick flicks (Ever After, Another Cinderella Story, 27 Dresses), and then when Rob got home we snuggled and watched the TV Show Alphas.  So it was an okay day I guess.  We had tortilla chips with cheese (one of my favorite meals) and Roast Beef for dinner, I know odd combo, but we were both so hungry that we had chips and then were barely hungry when dinner was done.

You might ask why I care about the fertility issues so much, well I do want kids (most of the time) and even though I have my fur kids, I still want to hold my own baby in my arms, I know my husband is going to be the most amazing father.  I just need to let go and let God handle it, but that is a very very hard thing for me to do.  I'm trying though.  I no longer cry every month when someone comes around, I just accept it as life.   We haven't seen a fertility specialist, I would love to, but it just never happens.

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?   ...

Who Are you?

Sunday stealing  Who Are you? Part 7 – It is Over!  Part 7: Self Image 84. 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. Are you going to run for President in 2016?   Nope, I don't care about politics all that much 88. Are you generally self-contained? No, I do like to talk, except t...

🌿 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...
