Who I am choosing to become

Alot of my anxiety/issues come from not having a very good Self Esteem, I look in the mirror and all I see is the fat and ugly me. I wish it were different but it isn't. I am glad to say I have lost 8# this past week, I have really been watching what I eat and trying not to gorge on too many bad foods. It's been hard but definitely worth it. Going to keep it up, as I know part of my self esteem is tied to my being so overweight, I am probably 70# over weight. I hide my weight very well as I don't look like most people who are my weight.

This weekend has been tough I have felt very depressed, and got in a disagreement with my husband who is feeling a little left out lately. I am very selfish, there I said it, it's not on purpose but I think part of it is my depression, and Bipolarism, that and the fact that I guess I really am all about me, and selfish. I really do want to work on my relationship with my husband, he means the world to me (although I don't always show it) he really does. He makes me want to live, makes me want to be a better person. I really am trying, I do need to try harder where he is concerned. He said I make my blog out to be that he is first in my life, when he doesn't feel that way. So that is something I am really going to focus on and try to change, I don't want to lose him. I want to become the person that he fell in love with and married 7+ years ago again. I want to be there for him and make him happy.

I am proud of myself, got 3 or 4 loads of laundry put away and hung up today as well as 3 loads of dishes in the dishwasher and 3 loads by hand. Even took a bit of a catnap, but got some stuff done today. Feels great.

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? ...

🌿 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?
