Tribute to my Shellie girl

I am sorry but this is a sad post today......my 4 year old Golden Retriever Shellie passed away last night, we think she had a stroke.  She was acting weird last night she was very confused and disoriented and foaming at the mouth.  She didn't eat her dinner right off hand, which is NOT like her, she usually has it gone in a second. So I was going to take her down to see Grandpa (AKA VET) today, but when I came downstairs she was dead in her crate.  I had sort of a love/hate relationship with her, she was a super hyper, energetic girl and could be obnoxious at times, she was sweetheart though she thrived on attention and loved getting loves and hugs.  I will miss you Shell Bells, Beaners, Beanie Baby,  Shellie Bellie, Bells.....those were some of my nicknames for my sweet girl.

Today has been a hard day, as could be expected. Work was slow, and I just wasn't in the mood to be there at all, just wanted to wallow in self pity I guess.  I cried a lot today.

On a positive note I refilled my Seroquel today....feels good to have my meds refilled on a regular basis :-)  Gives me a sense of accomplishment.  Rob and I are just snuggling on the couch watching old episodes of Roswell.

    Sooooo very sorry about your sweet dog. It is never easy.

    We have a Scottie who has many ailments and may have to be "put down".....

    Take care of yourself.

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...
