Improving myself

I am always trying to prove myself, but this quote struck a note in me....instead of trying to prove myself why not work on IMPROVING myself? I am using the FLY Lady's methods of getting my house over CHAOS (Can't have anyone over syndrome), lots of work to be done, but am taking things slow and in baby steps. So far so good and it's been over a week. Just implementing one new 'routine' each day as part of the baby steps and it's helping.

Today was a very stressful, high anxiety day for me at work, had 4 dogs who were really naughty, naughty dogs just drain me. By naughty I mean they were wanting to lay down, they were pulling their legs away, trying to bite etc. It's exhausting when I have dogs who are so naughty. I had to take an anxiety pill. I don't know why but my anxiety lately is way up. Gotta start remembering my 'tapping' and breathing exercises for my anxiety. I have the tools I just have to use them.

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.
