Poor Kitty

Today was a hard day for me, about 10am my hubby called me and was in a panic, DeeJay apparently fell out of his arms didn't land on her feet and injured herself, she was screaming and so he wanted my dad (who is a Veterinarian) to come down and take a look at her. Well DeeJay isn't the best of patients so she had to go home with grandpa so he could sedate her to see if it was broken.  He didn't find any fractures but a bad sprain.  She wasn't walking on it for quite a while, so that had me worried.  But I was stuck at work all this time while my sweet baby was injured and my poor hubby was frantic about it, he feels so bad, like it is his fault, when it really isn't DeeJay just happened to be squirming and she fell, accidents happen.  I am pleased to say that she is now walking on her leg, and is able to get on and off our bed in our bedroom.  I also had him check her urine as she's been drinking a lot lately, she has a bladder infection, joyous.....remember she is NOT a good patient so having to give her meds is not easy, so we opted for an injection every few days.  I do have to find a way to give her pain pills though for her leg.  My dad said her knee joints are messed up almost like she broke both her legs as a kitten.....I've owned her since she was 6 weeks old and don't recall her ever injuring herself, so she has some arthritis in her knees so I have to start giving her baby aspirin once a week (cat's metabolize drugs a lot slower than people do).

Work was busy today I had 8 dogs.  I am happy to report I did a golden retriever for the 2nd time today and she was really happy said that she likes that I consistently do a good job, she has been to other groomers who shave the dog bald, when she just wants a trim up.  I am glad that she likes what I do, I try hard :-)  Her dog is really easy to do so that helps.  I had to send home a dog unfinished which I don't like to do but she was very aggressive for her front legs and her face, she was very very old.  The owner was very grateful for what I could get done and gave me a $20 tip for trying :-)  I thought that was very nice.  So as Christmas Eve gets closer, my anxiety is starting to really peak......I am excited to have my family over, just have so much that I need/want to get done before they come.

I must apologize for not consistently writing on my blog every day, I will try to do better.

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?

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.

🌿 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...
