Taking it easy

So just chillaxin with my babe and my furkids today, taking it easy as I recouperate from surgery on my toe.  I am definitely feeling it today.....pain med (Percocet) is making me super nauseas, but I have Phenergen to counteract the nausea.  I have just been resting and keeping my foot propped up today.  I slept in until about 11:30.  Rob is taking excellent care of my and the furkids.  

 I am thankful today for my sweet husband, for his job which allowed him to work from home today so he could be with me after surgery.  Grateful for my parents who came to the hospital yesterday, grateful for my sisters who have both called to check on me. I am grateful to be alive.

 I have decided to join a 'weekly' challenge.  It's called "It's My Life After All" aka IMLAA I found it on  - http://adventuresinyayaland.blogspot.co.uk/p/imlaa.html blog, and she has weekly goals that they focus on that helps them get better.  This is week 2 and it is Focus on Relationships.  I am going to try to be more attentive to my sweet husband this week.  There are just a few more days left but I plan on really focus on it.  I tend to interrupt him when he is talking and I really want to focus on not doing that for the remainder of this week, heck for ever :-)  

Right now my sweet hubby is making me some soup so I can take my pain pills, my foot is killing me at the moment.  But am keeping it ice'd and elevated Dr's orders.

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.

🌿 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...
