Feeling a little down

Me thinks my seroquel helps more than just sleep......have been out of it, (waiting for mail order pharmacy) for about a week and have been feeling down in the dumps and just blah the past few days.  Today I broke down because I left all our lids to all crockpots, pots, pans etc at our old house and the landlord wont let us back in to get them.....GRRRRRR.  Seriously started in on the negative self talk "How could you be so stupid, I can't believe you did such a dumb thing, etc etc etc".  Man I really need to focus on my Cognitive Behavior Therapy exercises, and work on not being so negative towards my self.  It was a simple honest to God mistake, we stored them in the drawer under the stove.  My hubby was very nice about it, taking it in stride and not getting upset.  He was like so we'll just buy new lids and/or new crockpots etc.   So yeah, feeling super emotional, maybe just everything from the past week is catching up to me, but I really think the seroquel is making the difference.  I'm supposed to be just on it to help me sleep, but I think it has more of an effect on me.  Even my dad noticed today that I was kind of quiet and seemed depressed.

I am functioning somewhat better I think, I have been unpacking boxes in the kitchen, but first I have to clean out the cupboards.  I have been keeping up on the dishes (have to do them by hand as the dishwasher needs replaced), but no dishes stay in the sink for longer than 24 hours, I do them each night, and it feels AWESOME!  Hoping that my dad and I can focus on getting the other bedroom upstairs cleaned out so we can put our bed in there, the chair I've been sleeping in is doing a number on my back. I cleaned off the couch and am going to sleep on the couch tonight.

    OMG!!! I would also feel some anxiety if I left some of my cookware and was not allowed to retrieve it. But luckily there are universal lids. Or since Christmas is coming up you can ask for a great crock pot as a present from the folks or the Hubby or a best bud. Because I can imagine after the move and all the repairs needed that you are budgeting. I love to shop for cookware. But do take some time to relax because you have a great deal on your plate but you are such a trooper and handling things in great stride. Set aside 90 minutes everyday to relax and get outside so you can take care of your anxiety levels inside. My man and I go to a park with a pond and feed the ducks when we have some stale bread. (we store in the freezer left over buns and such in the freezer till we have enough to fill those birds for the day) :-) Just don't forget to have fun! hugs

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? 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...
