Desire to change

Sorry I have been MIA lately.  Just a lot going on with the move, previous landlord etc.  Things have been stressful to say the least but we came up with an arrangement that made him happy.  He is claiming by law we had to give him 30 days notice, well that wasn't in the contract and we gave him at least 2 weeks notice.  So just the whole drama of that has had me on edge.  I am so exhausted emotionally, and physically, took a 3 hour nap today and could probably sleep longer.

We did go to church today, which feels pretty good,   As we haven't been super active in our church for the past 4 years, feels great to get a 'fresh start'.  Tomorrow I have a day off....my last day off was spent packing and cleaning at our previous house, excited to have a day for me, and a day to work on unpacking, can't wait to find everything again.

One thing that I have been doing really good at is staying on top of the dishes, they are washed every night, if not then first thing in the morning.  This is huge for me.  I want things to be different I am tired of living like a slob and tired of using the excuse that I am bipolar, yes I am bipolar but I can overcome that obstacle if I choose to, and I choose to overcome it.  Once we get things a little more organized I fully intend to keep my house clean and company ready at all times :-)  We shall see, but I do want things to be different.  I am using the Fly Lady technique (which can be found here: http://www.flylady.net/d/getting-started/31-beginner-babysteps/)  Those are the 'baby' steps that you take when you first get started.  I am excited to start using it.  I have been shining my sink the best I can, it has a lot of hard water buildup on it.

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?   ...

Who Are you?

Sunday stealing  Who Are you? Part 7 – It is Over!  Part 7: Self Image 84. 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...
