Life is 10% What happens to you

<----- This was a quote that we discussed in length during my partial hospitalization.  How you respond to certain situations is key.  For example, yesterday I got bit at work by 2 different dogs, one I worked with and was able to finish, the other one was so aggressive/mean/onery that there was no way that I could safely finish the dog.  I called his owners and informed them that he was having an extremely bad day and wasn't going to let me finish.  Now the owner could have gotten upset as she'd brought her dog to me 2x before and I had been able to finish him, however she was super nice about it, offered to pay me for at least his bath and rebooked in a few weeks to see if he would be having a better day.  Some dogs when they get super old just get super onery about the whole grooming process.  There have been a couple that I've had to tell them that there is no way that I can finish their dog safely and suggested that they take their dogs to a place where they could have veterinary supervision during the whole process.  On that note I could have let getting bit by 2 dogs in one day ruin my day and make me upset, but I didn't let it.  I chose to respond diplomatically and for the safety of both myself and the dog.

Yesterday I was depressed.  Not sure why.  Maybe because I got overwhelmed we are starting to work on packing and cleaning up the house we worked on the basement last night, and we got a lot accomplished, then after we came back upstairs I was really depressed.  Couldn't really pin point why other than maybe our upcoming move.  We are going to move into my sisters house and it will hopefully be in December.  We shall see.  We should find out the first part of next week, exactly when we can move into my sister's house.

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. 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...
